Daily Adventures of the Cannon Family: June 2009

Update

To everyone that has checked our blog sometime in the last three months and wondered if I was ever going to post again, I have finally gotten around to it. A brief overview of what we've been up to:

Jeff graduated from Law School
We moved from Lincoln to... well, we're homeless. We're staying with family until Jeff starts getting paid the big bucks.
Jeff is studying for the bar exam (the big dates are July 28th and 29th)
Marianne is searching for our first home
The boys are having a blast having so much room to play
The boys and I visited family and friends in Oregon

I'll try to do better about keeping you all updated

Only two days after graduation, we loaded up the moving truck and the day after that, we made the LONG drive back to Utah. Thanks to the people that came over to help us load, it only took us one hour! That is definitely a record. I know my "system" drove Jeff and a couple other people crazy, but it sure made the transition go smoothly. Jeff drove the big truck and I drove with the kids. The kids and I made it in 14 hours and Jeff got there an hour and a half later.

If you're wondering where we moved to, the answer is complicated. Jeff is in Lehi at his parents' house while he studies for the bar exam. The boys and I are mostly at my parents' house in Elko until the end of July, then will be in Lehi until we can buy a house. Hopefully we will be able to buy a house in October or November. We'll let you know when we have another change of address.

Graduation!!!!!!!

Jeff graduated from Law School! The past three years have been the most difficult and best years of our marriage (at least I think so, Jeff may have a different opinion). I am so proud of Jeff for his countless hours of study and stress, especially when I wasn't very supportive and selfish with my time with him. We were lucky enough to have our parents there to celebrate this great accomplishment. We also had a fun time afterwards at the Websters' clubhouse (which was beautifully decorated, by the way) for dinner and dessert with many of the great friends we made while living in Lincoln. I can't express how much we appreciated everything these great people did for us and for the friendships we made. They really became our family while we were so far from home.
