Clarks blessing

We were fortunate enough to get to go home for Easter and we got to bless Clark at my parents home! 



We also got to attend the annual Easter egg hunt at my parents 



Back blogging!

I haven’t blogged since April 😬 so let’s do a catchup. 
In the end of April we found out we got orders to head to Holloman Air Force Base in Alamogordo New Mexico. Have you heard of it? Nope, me either! We learned it was an hour away from my cousins who live in Las cruces. Albuquerque was our nearest temple, not counting the Juarez Mexico temple. El Paso is our closest airport and Costco, and our nearest target... is an hour away. We were moving to a small town, 30,000 people, a significant amount of those are military. There is a walmart, and a jcpenny in the town. Excited for us yet? I only think I shed tears a few times, but I was ready to get there, to call some place “home” for longer than a year. 

We were back and forth between buying a house, renting or trying to live on base. In the small world we live in, my friend Megan from dental school, her husband had actually come down here to interview, (but ended up not taking the job) but she had a lds dentist wife’s number and put me in contact with her. I was able to talk to this sweet Lisa who then put me in contact with another dentist on bases wife! Turns out she grew up with my bestie chelsea in Olympia and her cousin is married to a Frye! So, I initiated contact and I asked her where we should live. Obviously she told me  to live in her neighborhood 😉😝 

Finally mid June I decided we couldn’t put it off any longer, this was our reality and we needed to figure out where to live. I contacted a realtor and mortgage lady, and they said if I wanted to move in anywhere by the beginning of August, I better but a house soon! Also in June, I got hired by the local hospital for a PRN labor and delivery position to start early August. So I had to be out there sooner than Jason. 

I ended up flying out for a quick weekend with Clark. We stayed with my cousins in las cruces and I bought a house. Yes, clark and I bought a house. I love it!
