The past couple of months....

April...
So my glorious mother was having an awesome week and broke her collarbone. (she had been rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking havasupi, etc. because she is awesome). Karly was 8 months pregnant and they needed my help in Utah and Pittsburgh a month earlier than planned. So with two days notice, I was packed and on a plane to Pittsburgh to help Ted pick out an apartment. Bye, Bye Maui...... Then I was back in Utah with nothing to do so... I shopped, planned, and packed, to help get ready for Pittsburgh!
May...
Baby shower, after baby shower, after baby shower.... and LOTS of anticipation.... patience..... and dreaming.... then finally little Olivia Marie Turner arrived on May 15, 2010. Life carried on in a new pattern, hold Olivia, pack something, burp Olivia, pack something, feed Olivia, eat something, hold Olivia..... she is so precious you just have to hold her over and over again! The family from Hawaii popped in to meet Olivia and spend some time.(Aunty Meg Moo already taught Olivia how to shaka) Somehow I snuck away for a fun camping trip to Moab where I conquered my fears and learned to rock climb!

June....
Baby sat, packed, held Olivia. California to visit Car/Griff & Lake Powell with some friends. There is nothing like the first wakeboard trip of the year! (My birthday came again 22) Oh....... minor detail....... I had a funny feeling about.... BYU Hawaii... (weird I know) so I prayed, fasted, and all that jazz and decided NOT to go to BYUH .... yes, yes, everyone thinks I am crazy for passing up the opportunity but it feels right not to go.... so I found the perfect place and signed a 6 month lease soo...... Salt Lake City, I am back!
Then off to Pittsburgh!
Ted & Scott greeted us at the airport by the men with signs, with our sign!

Now....
Pittsburgh week 3... We have been shopping, unpacking, holding Olivia :) who now smiles and coo-s at you when she gets excited, unpacking, and oh yeah I almost forgot, unpacking. The place Karly and Ted are living in is AWESOME it is right by the river and has a trail that leads down town... there are a million and a half bridges and we go walk on the trail everyday! They love it here everyone is so welcoming and things are finally getting settled. Goals before I leave - kayak, & hear Olivia laugh while I am still here.
Sooo..... Moral of the blog.... I LOVE my LIFE! it is filled with awesome opportunities, incredible people, and an abundance of hilarious moments! Come what may and love it.
Everyone in my family walked past this graffiti and NOBODY noticed it but me haha I thought it was worth sharing
