Newest Addition

For those of you who may not already know, Sierra has moved up here to Utah to live with us. We couldn't be more excited. We were hoping that she was going to move up here last year, and start 9th grade here, but circumstances were such that that was not possible. She came home with us after the wedding in California. It has been a busy week. We needed to buy her a new phone, a winter coat, (even though you could hardly tell it's winter....YET) and some school supplies. She decided to go to Hillcrest High School where Paul teaches. This is very exciting for Paul, who loves the fact that he gets to teach at the same school his daughter is going to....plus he gets to keep an eye on all the boys. Sierra told Paul on the first day some of the people she had met, and one of the guys was gay. Paul was quick to point out that that was the best kind of guy for her to meet!
Next year Sierra will go to the new High School here in Saratoga Springs as a Sophmore. The school is not finished yet, or that's where she would have gone this year. We are hoping the transition won't be terribly hard for her, since she already has friends up here from when she would come see us before. She has taken over the room that used to be Jeremy's, and as soon as Aubrey is completely moved out, Jacob will have that room. So all the kids will have their own rooms, (no more fighting at bedtime from Daniel and Andrew) and Sierra and Jacob will share the basement bathroom...more to follow on how THAT works out. :-)

P.S. Daniel is probably the MOST excited about the change of events. Ever since Paul and I were engaged, he was thrilled that he was going to have a sister. He loves Sierra so much.
