Packing up, moving, and unpacking has got Taylor and I feeling like this...
Although, Tannin feels like she's queen of the boxes!

| And I, TAN... THE CARDBOARD QUEEN!!! |
Taylor and I enjoyed our last meals at our old apartment on the floor, compliments of the freezer and microwave.
Our first time in our new place was Friday July 1st in the evening, and we both had to work late. So we showed up, got the keys, and then ate another a meal a la microwave.
And when you have all your silverware packed...you got to be creative!

We had fun eating it out on the porch since we didn't have any furniture set up and everything was still at the old apartment.
We moved last Saturday with the help of the Drake family and our Jeep!
And Tannin knew without a doubt she was the favorite child when she got a soft blanket with a grand view on the car ride over to the new home, and Colonel got a cup holder...

Both scale babies have enjoyed their new views though!
 |
| "Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, this'll do." |
And after our first night of sleeping Saturday-Sunday, Taylor said he had to have a hummingbird feeder out in the backyard....So that of course happened ASAP.
For July 4th, Taylor slept (since he had to work night shift the night prior) while I went on Twin Falls hike by Silver Lake with the Drake family.

It's always fun to hang out with family and sweat like a beast!
 |
| But we all look so good doing it! |
And then I came home to Taylor and Tannin in the backyard fixing up bikes.

| Biker chick! |
Luckily Grandma and Grandpa Shepherd invited us to a Fourth of July dinner since we still had a ton of unpacking and clean to do!
Fourth of July night was cool in our new neighborhood because everyone had huge fireworks right around us. We watched some from our kitchen window and backyard, and then took a walk around the neighborhood and watched 5-6 different shows!
Thursday was Scout Camp!
We took 3 of our Webelos up Millcreek Canyon to the Webelos Adventure Camp!
We had a competition with the boys to see who could build the biggest, and most protective shelter. We won. We have Tay. Tay made grass shingles. Be like Tay.
And of course, no home is ever a home until Taylor and I make one of our all time favorite meals in the kitchen...

| Chicken Tacos! |
...And create a new recipe as well!

| Sweet and Sour Salmon! |

Those posts involving the kiddies were funny! That hike looked gorgeous! Maybe we should do that in August with you guys. Glad everything went well with the move! Can't wait to see it!
