Well Toto, We're Not In Idaho Anymore...

JTyler and I took some time this last weekend to visit Temple Square and see the beautiful Christmas lights. We went with some friends in the ward and it was so much fun! Just walking round the Temple grounds brought back so many memories of when Tyler and I got married :) The weather was perfect and the grounds so lovely. For those who have never done this, this is a must do if you're ever in Utah during Christmas. :)



       Our dear friends, Katie and David, and their adorable daughter, Regan!


On a side note, this post title actually does relate with what I'm writing about. :) We found out after Thanksgiving the bitter/sweet news that my parents will be moving to Kansas in January. My dad received a job promotion within the company he works for, but unfortunately that included a relocation. I'm super bummed that my parents are going to be so far away, but I'm excited for my dad and this new adventure he and my mom will have. They will be moving to a small town called Chanute in the south-east corner of Kansas. I say small town, but in actuality its twice the size of Fruitland! My dad has already been featured in the town newspaper so it seems they are ready to welcome my parents right in! I'm sure they will enjoy all that is about to change, I just hope they don't get swept off to Oz in a tornadoe. 

The older I get, the more I realize that life is all about change. In fact, it seems that's the one thing about life that doesn't change - the guarantee of change. It's so important to appreciate the good things that are thrown your way and make the best of life, no matter the situation. I know that no matter how far, my parents will always be there for me! And thanks to modern technology, I won't even need to buy myself some ruby slippers to see my parents or get over to Kansas! ;)

Happy Holidays! Enjoy the time you have with those you love and travel safe!
