It's Lauren...again.

My mom had mentioned to me this week that she remembered her Blogger password, so I figured I would go to the blog to see if she had posted anything... Nope! But it was still logged on, so I thought I would do her a favor and post something. (Although it's getting pretty late and I have some summer reading to do...so I'm going to keep this short!)

We have been in Indiana for just over two weeks now. It is SO pretty here. The weather has been really nice these last couple of days. Everything is going surprisingly smoothly! The ward is great and the boys and I have made some friends already. We've been keeping pretty busy with all the unpacking, but our house is starting to finally look [kinda sorta] like a home! We also got registered for school and Drew and I got to choose our classes for this year. (Ah!) It's all a little nerve-racking, but it'll be okay. Wish me luck in AP US History...sheesh.

Our house is so much bigger than what we're used to! We can no longer just yell someone's name across the house and expect them to hear us...so we got an intercom system. :) It's hooked up to the house phone and it is brilliant. We all have our own rooms which is great. But what's even greater is the fact that I have my OWN bathroom AND walk-in closet. My room is on the main level, Drew has the basement bedroom, and then my parents, Anthony, and Trevor are all upstairs. Has my mom told you about their closet?! L i t e r a l l y bigger than my room. I'm so jealous...but hey, I can't complain.

Well, sorry, but that's as much blogging as I'm up to doing for tonight. I'll teach my mom how to post on here and maybe she can tell you all the rest. :)

We miss and love all of you guys in Arizona!


Love,
Lauren

P.S. You're welcome, Mom. :)

Update

Hi,
This is Lauren. I told my mom she needed to write a new post since it has been forever (2 months! Insane...), but she said she didn't have anything to post about. :) So I decided I would write something for her while she's tucking my adorable, little brothers in! ;) Hmm...Well, our Christmas was good. We mostly just spent time with family.
Drew just turned 12 and gets very excited each Sunday to pass the sacrament. He is on a travel baseball team, so he spends lots of time practicing. Anthony just started basketball, he still does swimming and he has been taking piano lessons since the beginning of the school year. Trevor loves playing out in the front yard with our neighbors and is obsessed with Club Penguin. I have been spending quite a lot of time at my friend Brooklynn's house. She has a show on YouTube called "The Dora Show" and she is making a Dora Movie that is coming out on February 16. I'm in it :) They are pretty entertaining to us, although we are goofy teenagers after-all. ;) Well, I better go get ready for bed! School tomorrow...

Love,
Lauren :D

The Beach

Our Kids!

Look at our cute kids!! This picture was taken on Christmas Eve, 2007!

Lauren!

Our girla!! Isn't she beautiful?!!!! Lauren is growing up so fast... Just one more year of elementary school and she's off to high school.

Trevor!

He looks innocent, doesn't he?! He is a big tease and is so much fun! We will be celebrating Trevor's birthday on Tuesday, so soon we'll post some pictures of his big party! He's not really focused on one character as a theme for his birthday... He just wants a "normal" birthday. :)
