Signed, Sealed, Delivered, It's Ours!!!

We signed on our house yesterday and we should have our keys today! We are so excited...we probably will camp out at our house until we officially move on Saturday! It's awesome and I have pics of the outside, I'll put up later. Can't wait to have you all see it and have you all help us move! ;)

But seriously we're moving on this Saturday at 9AM. We'll have breakfast...'Tell me who did a good job?' Sorry apparantly movie quotes popped into my head when I thought of the awesome muffins and other such stuff we will have for this move. Let us know if you can help so we get the right amount of food!

Great Deal!!!!

Seriously if you check this today go to Restaurant.com enter your zip code and it will bring up different restaurants. You can normally get $10 gift cards for $3. The catch is that you have to order at least $20 worth of food and then they'll take the $10 off so it's already like 50% off. But today only put in SPECIAL as the coupon code and you'll get an additional 80% off! I just got $60 worth of gift cards for $3.60! It's amazing! I love great deals!

Also on a side note my sister Sarah sent me some flair on Facebook. For those who don't know it's basically a fake button that have different sayings or pictures on them. I thought this one was so funny it was definitely blog worthy. It said:

Marching Band...
One big happy family.

(With lots of incest)

hahahaha! BTR! I love my family!

Orem LaX

For those of you that don't know, my brother Dan is the Orem High boys Lacrosse coach. They just went to Sate and won! It was a great game and they seriously played so well. The final score was 15 to 9 against Skyview. To put it another way, Orem put in their second string in the final minutes, at a State Championship game! That's crazy good! Well they dumped water all over Dan and he was interviewed by channel five news. It was exciting and I'm very proud of Dan.

Also Nate and I were lucky enough to have a player to cheer for. Nate's cousin Joe is the goalie for Orem. He's amazing and was voted AllState his Junior year, what a stud. I had fun cheering and getting majorly sunburned and Nate enjoyed being on the sidelines to take pictures. Go to his site and check them out here.
Don't forget we're having a special on family photos. it's a great time to get them!

Moving

Alright we are moving on the 30th so if anyone wants to help that would be great. Hopefully we'll have our keys to our new place by then but either way we have to be out of our apartment. So I'll get more details later, it will probably be around ten or eleven and we'll provide some sort of breakfast stuff for our helpers. more info to follow. Isn't life awesome?!? Seriously I can't believe we're getting our own place!

Big News!

Alright so it's official! We are under contract to buy our first home! We are so very excited, though it is coming much faster than we had anticipated. We were planning on moving around August but happened to find a town home that is perfect and we will be moving at the end of this month as long as there are no problems. We only saw it last Saturday and the offer was accepted and signed on Tuesday. It will be perfect for parties as it has a large clubhouse with theatre room and pool. So we know we'll be very popular shortly. ;) It's in Provo around 900 North and 1880 West. We will have a few parties once we're in and settled. And that's our big news!

Photography

Alright Nate's site is up and mostly completed. So everyone check it out. www.nathantgross.com Also right now we are doing a special on family photos, $50 for a full sitting and touch-up on the photos plus we'll give you the CD with all the photos so you can print and blog with them until your heart is content. We just need your photos on our site! Let me know if you want to schedule something.

Thank-you!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for the comments. I know it seems silly but it truly made my day. Alright as far as the couponing thing goes I would be more than willing to show anyone how to do it. It would only take maybe an hour. And then you can do everything from your internet. So just call me and we can get together.

I just wanted to let everyone know that God answers prayers. Nate and I have been so blessed in the past few weeks. Well really through out our whole marriage but especially in the past few weeks. And I just wanted to say that he answers prayers and knows what is best for you. Hopefully in a few days I can expound upon this but I want it to be definite before I let the cat out of the bag...no I'm not pregnant.

Anyway I just would like to say that I love the gospel and I love that we can receive personal revelation because it helps so much. And I'm very grateful for family and friends that are supportive and loving. (Also I'm especially grateful for Nate because he is such a fantastic husband!)

April showers bring May flowers

Alright well since no one really comments on my blog I feel no one reads my blog. So I'm sad. :( But it's alright I will try updating a few more times before I give up... New gross news: I am starting school at Western Governors University. It is an awesome online program and I am hoping to finish it relatively quickly. I'm going to school for Math education. Nate is still working hard for school and we're going to start studying up for some CLEP tests to get him out of some of his generals. We are super busy with everything and trying to stay semi-sane through it all.

I have officially missed wedding receptions and showers, and other such events because I am just not organized enough with my calendar. So I'm buying something to fix that and never again will I miss something important for the people I care about just because I don't have a calendar handy. Also the couponing is going well on our last trip to the grocery store three weeks ago, we saved 50% on all of our groceries. I'm very happy about that and hope the savings will continue.

We'll keep you posted on everything else!
