I finally am updating with pictures! I had my sister-in-law take some shots of my kids for Mother's Day. Here's a few of my favorites.

Spencer always, and I mean always, has his finger touching his lips. I was so glad Jamie caught this pose of him!







Thanks again Jamie!
Now for a Wall family update. As many of been asking -- yes, we are officially moving. We are sad to leave behind such wonderful people, but also excited for what this new move will bring.
When Keven and I bought this home 4 years ago we felt very strongly that it was where we were meant to be. We looked at several different places, tried to put in offers on two other houses, and then we found our current home. I still remember walking into the front living room - I turned to Keven and told him that I knew this was the house.
When we first thought of selling it was very worrisome because we bought our home on the high, high tide of the housing boom before the economy fell. Throughout the selling process we have felt the Lord's calm influence, and we feel so grateful for the way everything has come together.
This ward has become our family. We have made many dear friends that will be our friends always, we have been given wonderful opportunities to serve, and we have been blessed in too many ways to count.
We find we are still seeing the Lord's blessings as we start to move forward. As we have experienced this process of selling, moving, and then purchasing again we have found the Lord is always aware of our needs. Random things always seem to hiccup in the works and then suddenly everything comes together in ways we never imagined. Our hearts are very full of gratitiude.
We will close on our house the end of May. We will then close 2 weeks later on some land that is a bank repossession and begin the build process this fall. The land is located in South Jordan, about 106th S. and 2500 W. We are so thankful for this opportunity to take further steps towards fulfilling goals of our little Wall family.
