Our Wonderful move to Uah

So we made it... We are finally moved into our Apartment. And everything went pretty smoothly. Devin had knee surgery again, so he couldn't really do anything except tell the movers where to put stuff, and Devin's dad could not do it all, and even though I can carry Carter AND his seat, (that is about 27 pounds now total.) I was not much help either. Devins grandpa, however had some people come over and help us. we were very grateful for their help.

So we got to our new place, and I have been unpacking which takes a lot longer with a baby. ANd our apartment is smaller, so it takes longer to find places for everything, but I am managing. Compared to our basement apartment, this one is big. Anyway for the 5 days that we have been here, I have not seen one white person in our 350 unit complex. And every store that Carter and I have walked to, everyone speaks spanish and they look at you weird for speaking English. the town we live in is Called Midvale, and is about 10min outside of SLC. Right off of State Street. So it has a great location, but still. (ill post pictures as soon as I get the apartment together and we find the camera)

Devin likes his new job. He gets a lot of attention because he is on crutches, but other than that its good. He works with all girls that are not married, and are returned missionaries. The drive to work in the mornings are not bad, but after work. Holy cow. His first day on the job, coming home took him an hour and a half to make it 10 miles. Ya so now he leaves at 7 so he can come home at 4 and beat the rush hour.
