The past few weeks have been a crazy whirlwind, it seems like time is continually accelerating! We moved our stuff to Utah. I say we, but actually there were about 20 people from Lacey 2nd Ward that came to help load our truck, Bob and Greg drove the truck down, and people from our Sunset Park ward helped unload, so pretty much we is actually they. I just packed the boxes and I am now unpacking the boxes. I told Bob he coudln't unload anything, because I am afraid if he unloaded I would never find some of my stuff again (although there is some of his stuff he will never find again...). I need to say a great big thank you to everyone that helped us load and unload, it was incredible, made me feel so loved:)
I was able to find a job in Utah, so this trip up to Washington will be the last of this phase in my life. I will be staying with my sister and her daughter in Purdy....yes Purdy, it is really the name of the town, it is right by the Purdy spit. This makes my commute so much shorter and it will give me the unique opportunity to focus on being a great sister and aunt.
I will miss everyone in Washington, but I am really loving my time in Utah where I can see my family and enjoy their company. I am looking forward to being here full time and exploring all the trails and activities like the farmers market that Spanish Fork has to offer. I also have a lot more family members to catch up with once I am settled in here.
These past couple weeks I had the unique opportunity of living in my mom's motor home, located in her back yard. This basically meant I was able to be a kid again. We had some really good long talks, excercised together and we had a blast making body butter, lip balm, coasters, and best of all Tie Dye! I never really had much opportunity to tie dye in the past, and I am pretty sure my attempts were never worn. This time, thanks to a few U-tube videos, mom, Alyssa and I were able to create some really cool designs. Mom is selling some of them in her shop and I brought a couple shirts home for Bob and I. I had so much fun, I want to tie dye everything, however my husband has informed me that tie dye really isn't in fashion much anymore, however, I have decided I don't care. I love that moment when you remove all the rubberbands from the shirt and see how your design turns out, it is so exciting, it makes me feel like a real artist! So next time you see me, I will most likely be wearing a tie dye T-shirt. Unless of course I am at church or work where I of course will dress appropriatly, although tie dye scrubs might work, I may check that out.
What about you, have you ever tie dyed and had it turn out?
