Running away

 I decided it would be good for my marriage and my sanity if I ran away this week. I went up to Preston on Tuesday night and came back Thursday afternoon. Steve moved all of our stuff into the new house a few weeks ago, but didn't unpack anything because he wanted me to be able to put things where I wanted them, so this is what it looked like when I got there.


Steve and I spent most of the day unpacking Wednesday and got the house to this point.
Unfortunately, that is as good as it's going to get for a few more weeks. 
I stopped by the hospital on my way back today, and Jacob looked really good. They started feeding him again today, and so far so good. He still has his cold, so he will be in isolation for at least another week, but he looks like he feels better. 
I met the bishop of our new ward in Preston today, and I am so impressed. Steve comes down to Sandy every weekend, so we have never even been to the new ward, but the bishop has known about our situation. Anyway, he and his wife drove all the way down to Salt Lake today so that they could meet me and see the baby. Round trip that's a 5 hour drive. I thought that was above and beyond especially since they didn't have any other reason to be in Salt Lake. It's nice to know people care.

  1. Your place looks amazing! It's good to hear that little J is looking better. He's so cute....

    Your bishop sounds amazing too! Way cool. I don't really know what else to write. Love you, miss you. - Steve

  2. It's great to hear you have so much support from your bishop. I'm glad you got a chance to run home for a bit, even if it was to work.

    I pray Jacob continues to improve daily.

  3. I think you need a break that doesn't involve unpacking! I hate unpacking. You're place looks really cute though. Glad to hear Jacob is eating again. I'm so glad you have a bishop (and probably ward family) that is so supportive. Love you.
