So much has happened since we left Utah a month ago and came to Texas. It's a little overwhelming to try and blog about it all, and we have a million pictures because we have been surrounded by family taking them! We have been so busy with trying to adjust and getting through with Marisa's wedding, Christmas, and the New Year and so trying to get into a routine has been difficult. I am hoping that now that things have slowed down, that we will be able to. As of now, we are fine. We have food, water, shelter, and a loving family. I am praying that the rest of the necessities in life will come shortly. The house still hasn't sold, no job yet, and still so many unknowns. We do have the hope we are commanded to have. We sure do miss our friends in Logan. Anyway, on a lighter note....we do love being close to Grandparents. We have had all the cousins together and Ella has loved John, Madi, and Caden. We went to Galveston to explore what was left after the hurricane, We went to Cheeburger Cheeburger, The Rainforest Cafe, I got to see Ben and Stacey, and Cameron, Ella went to her first dress up party, Cavin got his first two bottom teeth, he is now scooting along and starting to babble more and more, Ella doesn't stop talking to "Grandma Speers" and we are so lucky to have them as the joy in our lives.

I absolutely love the picture of Ella and Cavin holding hands! Cavin looks like such a big boy in that picture and his hair is just growing -if only Ian's would. I am glad that things are going to start to settle down but how great it must be to be by all of your family. We sure do miss you here!
I was just wondering the other day what you Hartzheims were up to. It definitely sounds very busy. It's fun to see the updated pictures. Ella is looking so old, and Cavin is such a handsome little guy. I hope that things can get more settled and organized for you guys now. Just think if you were still in Logan you would be getting snowed on right now.
It was so great to see you guys and I can't wait for y'all to come and visit! Good luck getting into a routine...I know I am looking forward to ours!
Sounds like you are having a great time! I'm glad your holidays went well! We are still praying for you about the job and the house!
I'm glad you've been enjoying some dinner out- that was one of my thoughts when I read about your adjustments- "I hope with all of that going on, she doesn't have to cook dinner!" The kids look so adorable!
Hey!! Sounds like you guys are having a blast. I miss ya. But I am sure you are not missing all the snow!! We are getting slammed!! Rhett is walking like crazy now and he loves the snow!!
I miss ya guys, but I'm glad you're doing good. I hope 2009 will bring you the ups you're hoping for. You guys are sure in our prayers and I love getting updates. Blogging is journaling of the 21st cenutry. I love it.
oh my gosh,I totally didn't ask you how Ella's birthday party went!!
Hopefully everyone's getting into a routine now. You guys have had a ton going on. Everyone looks so grown up in the pictures. It's amazing the changes in only a few short months. I'm jealous of your warmer weather right now. The winter is dragging on up here. Hang in there.
