Trip to Utah, Kennedy's Birthday and move to TX

The last couple months have been crazy! With a hubby that works in the construction business, things can change pretty quickly. Corey's job in AZ was coming to an end since his company didn't have any new contracts with Intel. So we prepared for the worst (the possibility of him being out or work for a while) and hoped for the best (him finding a new job in the Phoenix valley). We wound up with something in the middle...he was able to secure a new position with a company in Austin, TX. So yay!(happy shouts here) for having a job! But boo(crying here) for having to move. It was very hard (and is still hard) to have to leave our home and start over in a new place. I loved our home in Maricopa and my friends, but doing the best I can to move forward on this new chapter of our lives. Being in a rental in TX is no fun and I could go on and on about how hard it is living in an older, smaller home with no kitchen counter space BUT those are all first world problems, so I won't whine about it too much here. Our new town is very nice and has a lot to offer: farmers market, splash pad, town lake and lots of shopping/restaurants. This is kind of a mass post so forgive me for shoving a ton of photos here but these are the pics I have so far from this summer including our trip to Utah to see my sister's HS graduation and visit the family and
Kennedy's 2nd birthday! Kennedy had to celebrate her bday amidst packing up the moving truck but I think she still had a good day. At 2 years old she is one smart cookie and speaks in full sentences! She loves keys, m&ms, her Binky and blankie, Snowman(Frozen), coloring with markers, and playing with her brother Ben.
