Goodbye Pittsburgh

Emmy and I are heading back to Utah. Scott will be joining us next week. We have had a lot of fun in Pittsburgh. We have been able to see so much in such a short amount of time. We are really excited to see everyone at home! Emmy has not seen most of her Grandparents since she was two weeks. She is such a fun baby and I know my family is going to have a blast with her. She is 16 pounds now. (yes she is a BIG eater!). She is a total chatter-box now too. We will look back on our time here with fondness. We have been so blessed this summer. Life just keeps getting better :)

A Big Possibility :)

Click on the rectangle to see the town home we are probably going to purchase! I love it! We are planning on living in it for a year and then using it as a rental. I still can pick my colors and cabinets. We are in the middle of the mortgage application process and everything is going good! So hopefully we will be able to close in September or October.

Visiting the Amish

So we decided to take a trip to visit the Amish. We went to Mesopotania, Ohio. It was about two and a half hours away. We had so much fun!! The Amish people are so nice. Scott spent over an hour in a handmade leather horse goods store. Needless to say we spent way too much money on stuff for Diablo. We got lots of fresh produce too. We bought the best corn, tomatoes, spun honey, spices, string beans, cheese, and handmade corn cobbers. We spent a lot of time talking to the owner of the horse shop. I guess they have an "Amish" language. It is a mix between Dutch and German. Everywhere you look there is hung laundry and gardens. The owner of the shop had a a pony the size of a dog that was just wandering around his property and playing with the dog. It was pretty cute. Needless to say we highly recommend going!

Sara Evans Concert

I love Pittsburgh! They put on a free Sara Evans concert for the community. It was such a blast! Lydia, Chantheoun, April, and I went. She is a great performer. I absolutely love her song "Perfect."
