It's official

We are officially moving into my folks' house some time this month. We just got back from California (I'll post the happenings lata) -visiting all the Larsen side of the fam-and my parents secretly worked their tails off this week! They had cleaned out my mom's craft room to make a room for Corban, they had taken their desk out into the basement so that it could be our computer desk, they had pretty much moved out of their own basement-all this just for us. I totally cried in my hormonal state because my mom had set up his port-a-crib with some brand new books and all the stuffed animals I've saved through the years all around the room. It really was such a sweet sight because it really looked like his new little home. Reasoning behind moving: rent went up 100 bucks a month, and we are on the house hunt but would like to be paying down some minor debts in order to get into the best loan we can, and my folks were obliged to let us fill up their basement so we can achieve all that. Jacks folks were also wanting us to come out there while we did all this but (drum roll please) Jack has accepted a brand spankin' new job with a company called Knight Transportation in Salt Lake City. He will be an "Operations Manager" managing drivers and stuff. He starts on the 28Th of this month! hip hip hooray for regular hours!!! I'm so excited to have someone to finally cook for I don't know what I'm going to do, Suzie home maker here I come! Any wonderful recipes that you turn to time and again would be greatly appreciated. We have also appreciated all of the constant support that you have all given our family with all the crazy hours, missing parties and get together's, and always stepping in with a helping hand when Jack had an especially long week.

Yay! Congrats on the new job! I'd love to hear about how it goes.

Financially, your making a smart decision. Besides, your parents are so fabulous!

Wonderful recipes, you ask?? Well, you came to the right place! Just tell me what you fancy, and I'll hook you up!

What an awesome situation for all! I know what it's like to have a husband in the restaurant business - NOT COOL. It was cause of a lot of arguements, that's for sure. I bet your family is SO excited to have you guys move in for a bit, and what a smart plan! Can't wait to see you at more family get-togethers! :)
