Change is HARD!!!

...but exciting!! We are in the thick of this move....Oh how I hate packing boxes!!! We have lived in this house for about 7 years. I had no idea how much STUFF we had accumulated until we started trying to put in all in boxes. I think we have personally restocked GoodWill and the DI with all our donations...but yet it doesn't feel like we have put a dent in the amount of STUFF we have. I am at the point of putting stuff in boxes and labeling them "random" or "misc." or "bedroom/etc." Guess opening those boxes on the other end will make it feel a little like Christmas...I always love surprises :)...The kids are doing great with all the chaos and changes...they are so excited to get to our new house. It will be so nice to live in a home with space for everyone and everything. We will be in Layton Utah...it is only about 10min to Ben's work and really close to cousins, grandpas, and grandmas, aunts, and uncles...I am beginning to realize how much we have missed family as the anticipation grows to be close to them again. We will miss our arizona "family" though...we are so grateful for the friends we have made here...they truly have become family...We hope that they know they are always welcome at "Hotel Walworth" when their travels send them our way...
I hope to never have to move again...this packing business is not my strength and I find myself blogging when I should be packing some more "random" boxes...Off to pack...the truck comes tomorrow and we pull out of this driveway for the last time on Monday....Ready or Not!!

4 days old

What a blessing to photograph sweet baby Dallin when he is so fresh from our Heavenly Father. He was awake the whole time and did't fuss once...what a priceless miracle he is!
