Quick Moving Update (in no particular order)
- Erik is in Denver, his first day of work is today! His commute was 50 min today but there was an accident, so hopefully it won't be that long everyday
- Wednesday the 23rd they came and packed up all our belongings (excluding things we needed/wanted to move ourselves) so the days leading up to it were pretty crazy; making sure we had everything we needed for the next week or two.
- Our friends and family really came to our rescue; watching Violet so we could get things done around the house and she would have someone to play with, feeding us, bringing going away presents, etc.
- We didn't know when they would have our things to our new house until the day they came, so that was hard to know how much and what to pack. They will have our things in Denver on the 5th of December.
- Wowza! So My mom and I are driving out Friday (Erik has a work Christmas party Saturday that sounds pretty snazzy that I don't want to miss, dresses, suite and tie, at a hotel, pretty excited!) then she's flying back home the next week. It should be an interesting couple of days with no furniture or anything for that matter until the movers get there! But it will be so nice to have her company in a new place, trying to get unpacked and settled while Erik is working all day everyday!
- Erik has already had to buy a new air mattress because there was a hole in the one he took, an iron (didn't think about him having to iron clothes!) and a chair because there is literally NOTHING in our apartment.
- Violet and I have been sick since Friday and didn't leave the house from Friday evening until this morning when I took her to the doctor.
Last Thanksgiving as Utah Resident's
We kicked off Thanksgiving with a quick impromptu goodbye breakfast at Amy's (thank you Amy for all the food and pictures! If it weren't for you I wouldn't have any pictures of this weekend, I only got my camera out once)
Thanksgiving spent in beautiful Liberty with the Oberg's, complete with nonstop eating, and topped off with Captain America
Friday we had yet another impromptu going away party, this time at Pizzeria for Erik because he left the next morning. Thanks for dinner mom and dad! We always love Pizzeria
We miss you daddy, Violet keeps looking for you
in your usual spots around my parents house, the computer room or the couch downstairs.
more to come, lots of partying and "lasts" before we leave! Stay tuned

violet looks absolutely ADORABLE in her little piggy tails, i love them. and how fun about the work christmas party, thats always been something i've wanted to do, but probably never will. good luck with everything.
I still can't get over Violet and her piggies, those are the most adorable things ever.
I'm glad that you had so much support with your move. I'm just sorry that I was around to help with some of it.
I'm excited to hear all about your fancy party and see pictures of your new life in Denver.
