The Beans Are Being Spilled!

So.....in case someone out there who actually reads my blog hasn't heard. We have moved!!! To Arizona!!! Jes got a new job just before Christmas. He is now working for American Woodmark. They manufacture kitchen and bath cabinets, and he is a Value Stream Manager. He left to start the job in the beginning of January, and I stayed behind in Utah to try to sell our house. The reason I haven't said anything online about this before now was because I didn't want any "creepies" to know that I was home alone without a husband!
Needless to say - the last 3 months have been hard on us all. Jes and I were both lonely, the boys missed their daddy, and mommy had a hard time being the "single parent" for so long. Luckily we are blessed with great family and wonderful friends who took pity on us. We had a lot of invitations for dinners, play-dates, and also a lot of listening ears and shoulders to cry on. Thanks everyone!!!
But, thankfully, the separation is over! We are now homeowners in Arizona (and still Utah). We are loving being together as a family again, though some of us, me and Isaac in particular, are missing home a lot. But I'm sure we'll start feeling better soon.
The house we bought needed a little help, so we are in the process of painting right now - so I won't post pictures until it's done - so you'll just have to wait and see.
In the meantime - if anyone knows of someone looking for a home to buy in Utah - I know a great one...and the seller's are willing to deal!
