so my best friend in texas moved to idaho last night. christie hall has been my workout partner for the last two and half years. we've ran in the annual astros 5k the last three years together. her husband graduated and got a good job offer in boise, idaho. it was really sad makayla cried all the way home from their house last night and then cried herself to sleep. this morning i went to the gym knowing that christie wouldn't be there. anyways we hope they love it there. both of their families are in texas so this was really hard for them and they just found out that she is expecting another child. it will be number 5 for them so they'll fit in really well in idaho.

three other friend of mine with young kids moved this month also. makayla will be the only kid in her primary class with no kids in the class above hers and one in the class below hers. isaac will have only two other kids in nursry. It feels like our ward is dying a little. I'm sure new people will move in but its still sad.

half our ward goes to the same gym so i'll be alright

I am really sad for you that you lost your best friend. That is really hard when friends move away. Maybe you should move home so you could be closer to them. I like that idea. That is so amazing Jackson is saying words already we still can't get Carter to say anyting but moma and dada. Kendall said he isn't really crawling but he is climb up to furniture wow. That is some kid you have there. I like the buzz.

Chauntel I'm so sorry Christy and Joe moved! Even tough you knew it was coming it doesn't make it any easer. Did Darla move too? Hopefully new people will move in who are going to chiropractic school:) Love Mom

I'm sorry that your best friend moved. That must be a bummer. I miss my sister because we used to motivate each other to work out and stuff like that. So to lose your gym partner must stink.

That is the cutest picture of your family (even if someone wouldn't look at the camera) :-)... Chauntel, you are so beautiful!
