I'm not dead yet...

*Hehe haha*
You gotta love Mighty Python! Anywho..... We finally made it to Rochester MN about 3 o'clock last Monday. It was a very. very. very. LONG drive!!! But we made it and I don't want to drive that far again for a long time.

Our house is beautiful and huge! I don't know what to do with all the space! Kurtis and I are feeling very lucky that we got such a steal on it! Also, thanks to our Realtor, we have a brand spankin' new basement! We LOVE it!!

It took us a week to get unpacked, but I think that we have finally done it. Now it is just down to organizing and decorating! (the good stuff) We also have to paint the bedrooms, bathrooms and our beautiful lime green kitchen! I really want to paint my kitchen red, but am a little scared to. Anyone have a red kitchen an LOVE the color? If so what is it called? I am dying to know!
*sigh*
So much to paint so many different colors to choose from! As soon as I get everything the way I like it I will post some pictures.

More news....
Kurtis started his Derm Residency today! Yahoo!!!! Finally the last phase of this LONG. LONG. road......I can see the light!!!! We have 3 more years and then.....................WE ARE DONE!!! Kurtis was given these HUGE books to "read" they are at least 15 lbs each! Crazy! This first year is going to involve loads of reading and studying. But if you know Kurits he will just soak it all in like a little, no huge sponge!

On to the next (I feel like I have to written for forever!!!)
Kurtis and I both LOVE Rochester. It was been good to be back. We went to our new ward yesterday and new that we were in the right place when we over heard a guy saying (all smiles), "You won't believe what I got to do last night!!! A bla bla bla (really long word) bla sugary!!!" I just had to laugh! We had 5 new families move in to our ward as well. So I am not the only lonely soul! Although it was nice to go back to our old building and see people that we already knew in our ward! Plus seeing all of our friends! Our kids were so excited to play with their little friends again. BUT we do MISS our family back in Utah and Idaho! We can't wait to see you all again! You are all invited here any time that you want! We even have a room and bed for you!! Yeah!!

Well, I think that this has gone on long enough! I will post some pictures tomorrow of random things!

We had a red wall in the kitchen of our old house...I loved it. I have no idea what the name of paint was or anything, but I really liked it. I don't know why you would want to do away with lime green... ;)Anyway, good luck with all of that, tell Kurtis I said hi!

I'm so glad you are here. I have a red wall in my kitchen, and I am actually kind of sick of it after 6 years and thinking of changing it. I get sick of things really quickly...
Let's get together soon.
