New Address

We are moving into our new house this week so I wanted to post our new address in case I missed someone in the emails I sent out. Our new address is:
99 N. Lee Lane
Saint George, UT 84790

I can't believe we are moving this week, it seems like we haven't been here that long and it's actually been almost 2 years. I'm also surprised at how sad I am about moving out of this neighborhood. I really wish we could pick up our new house and plop it right on top of this one. Our rental is just too small for our growing family so we need more space but this neighborhood has been unbelievable. We have seriously loved living here. The neighborhood is filled with kids and Kellin has made some really good friendships with many of them. I know they will still be friends, but it's so nice being close because Kellin can just go right next door or up the street or over to the park and have tons of kids to play with. I am praying that our new neighborhood will be just as fun as this one has. The park has been such a great social catalyst and really the main way we have formed our friendships. It's so nice to go over to the park and sit on the bench and chat with whatever moms are out with their kids too. I know that we will meet people through the ward but I often struggle meeting people that way. It's hard for me to get past the cordialties and actually form a friendship outside of church. That's what I have loved about this neighborhood is that many of our friends aren't even members and it's actually really refreshing to get outside the "mormon culture" and get to know people on a different level. I'm probably going to be stoned for this, but does anyone else relate to what I am saying? Sometimes it seems that when I meet people through a church setting, it's hard to get past the "I'm a perfect person" facade and really get to know them and become real friends. When I think about most of my really close friendships, none of them are people I have met at church, they are friends from work, school, or neighbors, even though many are LDS. It's like that front isn't there in other settings and so it's easier to get to know people. So I'm not saying that LDS people are fake, I'm saying that for some reason when we are in the "church" setting, we sometimes put up a front and that makes it harder to make friends. Anyways, I'm babbling now so I will stop. Curious to hear other thoughts on this.
