Best Family Ever!

Mom, Dad, and Kim were such a wonderful help bringing us all kinds of beautiful decorating items and furniture to "stage" our house! Here is a small sampling, and I don't think the pictures show how great everything looks due to my amatuer photography skills. Thank you so much Hannays and Mom and Dad! You were a huge help in getting us ready!











Spring Break

In preparation for selling our house, we have had many projects both big and small. Since this week was our spring break Theo decided it was time to tackle two of the big ones. He put the boys to work shoveling dirt, hauling brick, fetching tools, and then some. We managed to finish a new patio area in the back yard and to build a pantry.















Now that the week is about out, we are trying to finish up the smaller stuff in hopes to get this house on the market. Pray for us that we can sell quickly! (=

Ross reunion dates

Hello Rosses! I am finally posting about our reunion dates. We had tentatively gone with July 6-10, but I would like to do July 13-17. Martins are able to come that week, and it would be much better for us. Jackson will be baptized on July 17th and we would love to combine those 2 events. We are actually thinking of doing an early morning baptism if the ward let's us. Thoughts? Concerns? Conflicts?

Rex's baptism

Hey, Page-ites, we need a good recommendation for a campground for the weekend of Rex's baptism. We've been wanting to do a lot of camping this summer (now that I am not pregnant, and Gideon is doing so well with walking), and this Page trip is a great opportunity! Do you have any good ideas for where we might camp?

Rex's Baptism

We want to officially invite the Ross clan to Rex's baptism. We are having it on his birthday, April 9th which is a Saturday! We hope you can all come celebrate what may be our last big milestone in Page (no pressure)! Let us know if you think you will make it!

Deep in the Heart of Texas....

We are MOVING!!! After lots of though, consideration, and prayer, we have decided to go back to school. Theo is realizing a longtime dream to become a physical therapist. Several months ago we started applying to a few programs, and today we got an acceptance to our top choice, Texas Tech! The school actually has three campuses in Lubbock, Amarillo, and Odessa. We are still waiting to hear which of the three he will be assigned to. We did make a trip out to Texas a few weeks ago when Theo had his interview (thanks again mom and dad for watching our kids!), and we are excited about our prospects there. There will be lots of decisions and hurdles to clear in the coming months as we prepare to go, so pray for us! More details to come as we learn more!
