La Famille Wilcox
Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found.

Well if I knew where my camera batteries were I'd post some pictures! Hopefully in the next couple days.
We've been pretty busy thus far. We're almost totally done with the house. We just have a few minor things and then the family room. Maybe someday we'll put carpet out there! We have yet to buy a lawnmower! We're po! Bella's room is the cutest! I painted pink and white stripes on one wall and distressed them. The other walls are pink. We're going to put tile down on the kitchen floor this week.

Other than that we've been enjoying summer with the exception of last week or so we've all been sick! I started to feel better by last night ad we decided to go to boulangerie Saint Honore in the pearl for Jour de Bastille! (France's independence day) With Zac and Courtney. It was so yummy! I had a croque Monsieur and a Saint Honore patisserie. It was a good time! What else....For the 4th of July we had a bbq at our house with some friends it was fun! We lit huge fireworks and went to bed by 10:30...we're geezers! I learned how to make Rasberry, Strawberry and Blueberry Citrus Marmelade last week. I felt pretty cool. That's one more "Domestic Diva" star to add to my list. (There are only three mind you. Joe is more domestic than I am) Yeah that about sums it up!
We're going to the beach with Joe's family in a couple weeks. It's a sweet beach house! I'm pretty stoked! We weren't thinking when we were planning and the beach trip just so happens to fall on our wedding anniversary! So, we're going to go horseback riding on the beach at sunset and get dinner somewhere and then go back and hang with the fam! Yahoo! Let's just say it will probably be a pretty wholesome night since we share the same room with Joe's brother and sister! :) Go us!
Living in Salmon Creek isn't so bad! (I feel like I live 10,000 miles away from everyone)We really like the area. It's a quiet little neigborhood. Mostly old people. Our ward is so tiny! It's weird! There are only three young couples. We are one of the three! I feel a little lonely out here somedays! :( I've never been really good at being the new girl! I was much better at it in college!
Oh well! It will get better!

You'll do great in your new ward, and before you know it there will be a ton of young couples. Have so much fun at the beach you old geezers!

It sounds like things are going good for you (besides the whole sick thing)! I've been meaning to call... I'm so lame. Can't wait to see pics of your new house!
