Maybe I Am Back

Clearly I am not very good at blogging, at least on this personal blog. While I regularly post on mine and Kelly's cooking blog Two Little Chefs it has been a while since I (or Brad I might mention) have posted here. Excuses? Who needs one, there are just other things occupying my time, things like: growing a baby, teaching, eating, sleeping, reading, lounging, living, etc etc.

However, I have been continuing to read other people's blogs and always appreciate when they update their blogs, so I have been considering rejoining the lovely blogging world.

So here is my first post in a while with a little story. Brad and I moved back to Provo, not too far from where we used to live, in January. We moved into this great old house just off of Center Street. At first it was a disaster as our plumbing was frozen thanks to the early January chill. However, our plumbing finally thawed, we hung a few pictures, purchased a few rugs, and have made our house more into a home. It is still a work in progress, but I feel safe saying that we are now enjoying were we live...


...and we are enjoying our new neighbors, the 6 deer that are regularly grazing in the back and sometimes front yard. Deer, in Provo? Yes, that is right. We don't live particularly close to the mountain, but in our yard these deer have found a haven. I greatly enjoy seeing them out there, it has made the move from Midway less harsh, as I had to give up seeing many creatures each day moving from the mountains to the valley. However, I do wonder if I will enjoy them as much this Spring as I am cleaning up their droppings. My guess is no, but I still think it is worth having them as winter guests.

Cheers! Caroline
