Photogenic

When we were packing for our move, I found a camera that I had about 10 years ago. I gave it to William because he's always wanting to take pictures with our camera. While we were traveling to Utah, I was taking pictures here and there and so Will had to pull out his camera too. So, here are some pictures of Will taking pictures.

Here is the start of the funny pictures. I was trying to get a cute picture of Lily and Dad. I didn't even notice Will was in the background until I looked at them all after I took them.

I finally got Lily to cooperate and got this cute picture of Lily and Dad. And Will.

This is what Will looks like behind the camera.

What can I say? The camera loves him. Or.. he loves the camera.

The 12 Joys of Moving to Utah

Sidenote: Sing this to the tune of the 12 Days of Christmas. That's how I envisioned it anyway!

When we moved to Utah, these 12 Joys came to me...
12 Apostles smiling
11 Boxes in Storage
10 LDS neighbors
9 Townsend Siblings
8 Cousins to Play with (for William and Lily)
7 Jello Dishes
6 Local Temples
5 MINUTES FROM FAMILY
4 Seconds from Church
3 British Ladies
2 Huge Bathrooms,
and Roast Beef and Yorkshire Puddings (which are Delicious!)

By the way, we're all doing pretty good. I hope that you all are too. I hope to be getting into the blogging groove soon and we'll be up and running again. We love you all!

Long Time, No Type

Hello from the great state of Utah! I have a great post in the works, but I just wanted to update. I miss the blogging part of my life. As of right now, Matt and I don't have Internet. Or a computer. It's all in the works.
Anyway, I thought I would share with you all that we're doing great! Our apartment is in order and I hope to have some pictures up soon. We have wonderful neighbors, who are very friendly. They know Matt, which is absolutely NO surprise. We're having fun with the fam. It's good to see everyone.
My mom and dad are in town, staying with Carrie. It's nice to have them out here. Although, I think William has associated Carrie's house with my mom and dad. I guess we'll see how that turns out.
Matt has gotten a job that will pay him well. His uncle works at Kennecot (the copper mines) and has been so great as to lend a hand out to Matt. Matt's going to start work next week, which is SUCH a blessing.
William and Lily are adjusting. It's still been pretty hard. Lily has been taken out of her safe environment, so she's had a difficult time. I'm sure it will all work out in the end. Both of them are getting used to Matt's family out here also.
I LOVE our apartment. It's been so much fun decorating and getting things in order. It's just amazing. I think our place is nice. I'm excited for people to come see it. The only thing I don't like about it is that the carpet smells like a dog. We've been trying to make it better though, and I think it has.
Well, that's pretty much it! I wanted everyone to know that we're doing okay! Keep a look out for my awesome post.
