Holl-A-day

We've moved! Hopefully the last time for very long time since I really like the house, and the area (plus I HATE the hassle of moving). Drake has a nice big, fenced backyard to play in and Kenley has a very cute little room for herself.
Our friend Tasha said it's a "happy little place" :)
I was excited to move to Holladay because my Aunt, Grandma and other family live here and have always told me how much they love it here.
We really got lucky finding this place, it's so close to work and school. There are a lot of young families too!
I am, however, a little worried about fitting in. What I mean by that is:
Our cars are an Accord and a Jetta + I haven't seen so many Subaru Outbacks with bike/snowboard racks in my life = I hope we can prove to be outdoorsy enough to play with these folks.
My morning jog in my sweater I've worn since high school and yesterdays mascara making me look at raccoon-y+ Tiny, beautiful women jogging in brand name sports attire in full makeup and hair done = Thank goodness for 24 hr gym memberships!
Our very modest furniture + the million dollar homes decorated to the 9's down the street = Holy inferiority batman!
We haven't even been here 2 weeks but I'm learning that Holladay is a whole new subculture of Utah that I never really knew about. People that have lived in Utah for years don't know exactly where it is, and misspell it like I did (but don't worry! know-it-all-BJ set me straight on the spelling)
Of course BJ is so excited about all the snowboarding peeps that I'm a little worried I wont see him at all in the winter months. But we're excited to be living in this cute place with our little fam and I'm especially excited to see what trouble I can get into here.

Well I am glad you like this new place, not so glad it is SOOO far from us. I'm sure in the warmer months we will be friends again!

I wanna come up and see it. I swear we haven't seen you guys in forever, either.

Oh, and those women are fake runners. I'll hate them for the both of us.
