This week has been busy but fun. Mckay started school yesterday and she loves the whole day thing. She was even more excited to ride the bus. It's nice because the busstop is right infront of our house so we just have to watch for the bus to come. I don't have to wake the kids up to take her to school anymore. Yeah!
Grandma and Grandpa also came up yesterday. We enjoyed visiting and showing them around. Aunt Leslie and Tom were also in the area to drop off Sarah at BYU Idaho. They came over for the afternoon and ate dinner with us. It's always nice to have family come visit. We enjoy the company! It's also nice to know that there is a little more family around and we will have Sarah over more often.
Another thing is a little over a week ago we closed on our lot (property). It's in Rigby (about 10 minutes from here). It's only 5-10 minutes from Idaho Falls, and 10 minutes from Rexsburg. It's an acre and we are excited to build a house. We are just in the planning phase still. We have a house plan it's just getting everything finalized. McKay went to Rigby last year for Kindergarten. She had to go to a different school this year because of the district lines. We will be right by her school when we move. It is a really pretty area. The land here just keeps going up in price. It's crazy. If we would have bought when we moved out here it would have only been 5 thousand an acre. It's all the way up to 20 - 30 thousand now. (I know that sounds cheap compared to other places like Utah and California). But hindsight is always 20/20 right? We are excited though. Jake is going to be the general and do some work himself but sub-out a lot. He is going to be really busy!
Well we will see everyone in October for Hester's wedding! It was good to see everyone last week! Love and miss you all!

Congratulations on the property. Getting a new house is always fun. Maybe you can post the plan so we can see it. We are excited for you. We are also excited for McKay to go to school. It is great when they get to go all day. They learn so much. We miss you.
