Too Excited

I hope Dave doesn't mind that I write this blog, but I am too excited to wait. We really haven't told a lot of people, but I am sure a lot of you know through the grapevine that Dave and I put an offer on a home in West Jordan. We are really excited. We can't believe after four and a half years of marriage we are finally taking this big step. It will take a lot of sacrifice on both mine and Dave's end so that we can have a home for our family. Here is the link to it.  http://www.utahrealestate.com/866623

It's a funny story. We were going to wait a little longer to save up some money and our realtors called us and said they had 3 houses for us to look at and when they took us to this one,  I looked at the address as we were driving to it and I said, "Dunlop Drive? How do I know Dunlop Drive? I KNOW!" The house next door to "maybe ours" is the Wadsworth family, which I know very well. I went to junior high school and high school with their daughter Erin, who I remain close friends with to this day.  We loved 2 homes they showed us out of the 3, but we loved this one for lots of reasons. We put the offer down and the sellers have signed our contract and accepted our offer, so technically we are under contract with them until the bank signs it. Then it's ours! We are excited to move forward with this, but it has been an overwhelming experience for all of us.

Saturday Morning Challenge

We love Saturdays here at the Park home. Dad gets to be here in the morning with us and we wake up semi-early and watch Mickey Mouse, oh and believe me, if you turn the channel, you'll hear about it from Carson. We also love breakfast time. I bought him some Trix the other day for something different. We don't feed him a lot of cereal because he can't really eat it very well. He still likes to dump things, but I gave him some Trix in a bowl and a cup of milk just to snack on while I cut his banana. He loves bananas! Anyway, as I went around the corner, Dave told me I had to see what Carson was up to. Carson had thought up a new and challenging way of eating Trix cereal. Not with a spoon or even his hands, but his toes!!! Where do kids think up these things? I love it! Never a dull moment with Carson around.

Here is Carson trying to put the cereal in between his toes. He's concentrating hard too!

Here he is with the Trix in his toes and he is trying to pull his foot up and bend his head down at the same time just to get to that cereal.

Here he is having a hard time getting the Trix to stay in his tiny toes!

Good News For The Unck Family

Starting Left: Elder Coombs, Grandpa Kenneth Logan, Elder Gomez

I am so excited to be posting this blog! It's something that a lot of people in my side of the family have been waiting a long time for! My Grandpa Logan (my dad's step-dad) just got baptized into the LDS church yesterday! My grandpa was born into the Catholic Church and when he turned 12, he was converted to the Presbyterian Church. My Grandma married Grandpa Ken a few years after Grandpa Unck had passed away. They married in 1981. Since then, he has been coming to church with my Grandma and it wasn't until recent that the these missionaries came to the door and he said to them, "not a chance, Elders."

These wonderful missionaries taught him for a few weeks and that is when he decided to convert to the Mormon Church. My Grandpa and Grandma called everyone. Not just parents, everyone.
After 28 years of going to church with my Grandma Arline and being 96 years of age, he finally did it. We are so proud of him. These are the moments where you feel the spirit most in your life because you know someone is as happy as you are that you have the gospel in your life. We love him so much and we are so happy that he is apart of our family.
