The Merrell Family, Established . . . 3 months ago!

SO heres the update . . .


Lots of BIG changes for the Merrell Family! Chads brother came home from a mission so its been fun getting to know my new brother. We are slowly putting together our house, i have since realized that i might be amoung the top 10 worst decoraters in the whole world . . its possible, im not 100% sure but the odds are against me. all the same, i love our house, its so ghetto but its cute and its perefect for us right now!


We love being so close to the temple, our ward is so . . . . OLD! Its been such an adjustment but change is good!

Speaking of good change, we are MOVING!!! IDAHO! In JANUARY!! I used to think I would love to get away but as I write to all my family here i realize its gunna be alot harder than i thought, but it will be good, we need to finish school and so many people have told us that it will be good for us to get away and live on love for a little while ( i hope it a really really little while). We are doin so good though, Chad LOVES his job! He works at the Mesa General Hospital just a few minutes from our house. He helps people that come to the ER get finacial assistant if they need it, so he sees alot of crazy people. I love hearing his stories and now the sirens and gunshots we hear in our neighborhood actually mean that chad will have a busy day ( i dont know if that makes it any more pleasant to hear them but hey now they have an advantage to us) JK! But work is good! Im still teacvhing lessons, dance and what not, its good! Right now we are also looking for a car! the good old Impala just gave up the ghost so we are now buying our first car together, and untill we find one, i am playing a little game called high school sophmore where i call my mommy back in QC everytime a need a ride anywhere! Its a fun game, sometimes i even whine about my lack of car, just like a 15 year old!!! My mom doesnt like the game as much as i do, but she still plays along :) Love you mom!! We've got some challenges in the future but we are having a blast being married and figuring eachother out. We started a blog of our own (incase you wanna hear some funny newlywed storied and pics) its www.sealeddeal.blogspot.com. Chad and I like to spend our spare time driving around used car lots, renting cutrate films, going Goodwilling, antiquing, eating mikenikes, and loving eachother . . . till next time, Chad and i are sealing this deal!

  2. yea, it does suck to live away, but it's also a lot of fun and you'll make lots of awesome memories. Our 3 years in Texas were fun. I actually hated the first year because we lived in the ghetto and it was a year with a lot of tornadoes and hurricanes, but the middle year was ok and we had so much fun our 3rd year. So just start out loving it. idaho is abou 30x better than texas to start with. you'll love it! We LOVE Idaho! And decorating....just go on e bay or go to bookmans and get some old magazines. I have tons of old Country Home magazines that help me. But I'm thinking country home isn't anyone else's style in the family cept mine. haha. Oooh, look up soem old better homes and gardens, they always hae fun ideas!
