I have decided to maybe start blogging again. I was just a little burned out when I stopped in December. I know that I don't always have the best grammar so I apologize. I really love reading everyone else's blogs so thank you! I love keeping up on whats going on with your family's.
I am currently on my 5th round of Clomid and we have our fingers crossed! Hope we finally get pregnant. It seems like that 2 year mark is creeping closer and closer. I really really hope that 2011 is the year of the baby for us. One thing I have been doing to keep my mind busy is sewing! I love it and it is so fun to think of things to make. I will upload some pictures of the things I have been making lately. School has been going well. Adam and I are great (besides the non pregnant thing) I feel like we are so much closer than we ever used to be. I love him so much and he treats me like a little princess. Everyday I cant wait for him to get home after work so we can hang out. I know one thing and that is when we finally do have a child it is going to be loved so much because Adam and I have so much love for each other. And that's how it should be. I cant wait to blog about a baby! But for now we are suck with just little old Adam and Krystal .

I am writing today about some bad news. I have been struggling with the decision to share or not...... I hope that writing a little bit will promote some healing. Recently Adam and I were blessed to find out that we were expecting. I was so excited! Finally after 15 long months it happened. Right as soon as I got off work I rushed to Adam's work so I could tell him the wonderful news. I bought the cutest little t shirt and wrapped it up and then gave it to him. It was such a happy and sweet moment when he put to and to together. Needless to say we were overjoyed. I started going to the doctor to make sure my pregnancy hormones were doing what they were supposed to do. We found that they seemed to be a bit sluggish but still rising ( within range) so things were going well. They were concerned that the pregnancy may not go well but we were determined to keep things positive. On Thanksgiving day I was 6 weeks along. That night I started feeling pain on my right side and we decided to go the the ER just to make sure everything was ok. I ended up having to stay overnight and into the next day. I was diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy and shortly after started to miscarry. The whole experience has been one of the most painful things I have ever gone through both physically and emotionally. Due to some of the medication I had to take we have to wait up to 6 months before we can try again to conceive. 6 months seems like an eternity and I am hoping we don't have to wait the whole time. I am coming to accept Heavenly Father's will although it is extremely difficult. I have been touched by all of the love and support that I have received. My husband has been my rock and I am so thankful for him. Having a m/c was one of my worst fears but I survived and I hope I am learning whatever lesson I am supposed to. I hope with time that my heart will heal and I hope Adam and I will be able to have a little family of our own some day.

More pics of the house. I took these pictures of the outside right before we had a snow storm. We got about 10" in one day! Holy Crap! It's super cold here. Today it was about 16..... I have been layering like crazy just trying to stay warm.

We finally finished the kitchen!!!! I am so excited to show you guys. We worked so hard on it, but it all was worth it. It took about 2 1/2 weeks to complete after work and on the weekends. As you can see we re-did the countertops, pulled out the white appliances, tiled the backsplash, sanded, primed & painted the cabinets, and painted the walls. Oh, we also built a breakfast bar! I am super happy with the way it turned out. I still need to accessorize but at least I can cook. It was hard not being able to cook, so we ate a ton of cereal and things that just needed to be warmed up. What do you think??

Ok ok! Sorry that I haven't written for so long. The past week has been absolutely crazy. We closed on the house on the 26th and it has been work, work, work ever since. The move went amazing. The Apple Valley Ward helped us move everything out of our apartment. It went so fast. I served everyone chocolate milk and doughnuts, yum, yum! Then we headed off to Maple Grove where our new ward helped us move everything in. I ordered some pizza for them.... some payment huh? Oh, and someone brought us dinner and someone else left us a plant on the doorstep. Nice huh? They were all great and we couldn't have done it without them. We are so blessed and so excited to finally be in a house. We started unpacking and it was like Christmas because I forgot about a ton of things that we have. I haven't a lot of it for like 6 months because we didn't unpack everything until now. We decided to repaint all of the cabinets in the kitchen. Holy crap!! What a big job! They were a very dark brown color and looked out-dated. So we have been sanding , priming, painting, and painting some more for the past week. They are almost all done! They look completely different. We painted them an off-white bone color and we are going to antique them. We're also planning on redoing the backsplash and countertops. We found some rad deals on Craigslist and got all black appliances. I love good deals. We also painted the master bedroom teal. My fav! I love the way it turned out. Halloween went fast since it was the day after moving day and all. It was so fun to hand out candy to all of the cute little kiddies. Everything is still a huge mess but I will try and take some pictures this weekend and post them.

We found a house! I am so excited!!! It's amazing how things work out better than we imagined. We have been looking and looking for a house and we almost bought like 4, but nothing worked out until now. At the time it was really hard because we kept thinking there couldn't be anything better, but then right at the perfect time we found this house right after they had droped the price. We put our offer in right away and after 3 weeks our offer was accepted. I can't wait to move in and start putting stuff away. It's in Maple Grove, MN. It's close to Adam's work and right by an amazing lake. The lake has a biking/walking path around it which also leads to some really cool trails. We went to our new ward today and it seems like we will fit right in. There were a lot of people from Utah...who are orphans like us (with no family out here). I am hoping we can make some friends. We are closing and start moving on Tuesday this week. I plan on taking pictures so all can see! Wish us luck with our busy week.

O Fall how I love thee! Really I do love fall and all of the fun things that come with it. I have been really getting in the mood. I made some butternut squash soup, bought some fall smelling wallflowers from b@b (holy crap the "fall leaves"and "cranberry woods" ones smell so good!), and have gone outside a ton to enjoy the leaves. I couldn't resist putting some photos up and I had a very hard time choosing which ones because I love them all. On Sunday Adam and I went to our friends, Erin and Bradly's, house to watch conference. It was great and I made some delicious taco soup. After conference we went to Maple Grove (right close to the the house we are trying to buy.. fingers crossed! 4th time's the charm) where there is one of the most amazing trails. It goes all the way around Rice Lake and then to Elm Creek Park Reserve. I have to say MN is growing on me.
