Is there a DOCTOR in the house??

There sure is!! Jason got his part four board scores this morning!! He passed with flying colors!! He's officially licensed in the state of Oregon!! All we are waiting for is the piece of paper to hang on his office wall.

As far as an update on our house...we are moving along really nicely. Our goal is to have EVERY box unpacked and our pictures on the wall before New Years!!

An update with pictures should be here soon!!

Love to you all!

Moving Part One

All I know is that we are going to be in this place for the rest of our lives!!! Moving Stinks!! Here I am, 5:00pm on a Friday. I haven't showered or brushed my teeth because I don't know where the towels are or my toothbrush. We need to go get some stuff at the store, but I refuse to go out of my house looking and smelling as fabulous as I do right now. Jason is in the garage searching the sea of boxes to see if he can remedy this situation :)

I can only feel a tiny bit of my massive moving headache that I've had since yesterday, so I think I'm ready to rock and roll on this unpacking thing!!

As I was complaining about moving and saying I was jealous of everyone who is sitting in their unpacked houses across the street, Jason reminded me of how blessed we are. We had about 8 guys help us load the truck and 6 guys here to help us unload, what a blessing our wards are. We are in a great home in a great location, we absolutely love it! We are warm, one of the things we NEVER were in our old apartment. Our kitchen is unpacked, one way that I feel like we are making progress. We had 4 different people show up at our door within 3 hours of being here to welcome us to the new ward, we are pretty excited about Sunday!! We have nothing to do until January 1st (other than Christmas) but make this house our home. See, just typing this made me feel all happy again :)

Now we are off to Costco to buy some massage things for the clinic that we need to try out first :) Jason found the towels...lets hope the toothbrushes are in there too!!!

We will keep you posted and put up pictures once I find the camera!!

Our New Digs in Corvallis and the Clinic too!

Boy have things been busy. In a matter of a weekend we had found an amazing place to live, worked out the financing on for our clinic and saw the office with all new hard wood floors. Here's a peek into our upcoming lives :)

Atrium in lobby
Lobby #1
Lobby #2

Treatment room (1of 3 that will be leased out to LMT's or Acupuncturists)Jason's office and the girls's playroom. There's another room this size that will the exam and PT room.

There are 3 rooms that will be rented out, 3 rooms that Jason will use (1 of which will be separated into 2 eventually). 2 lobby's, 2 bathrooms, an unfinished basement and a front desk area. It's 1800 sqft not counting the basement. We have LOTS of painting and updating to do to the place, but the floors turned out amazing.

Doors will open in the middle of January. More info about that later :)

Here's the house. All the furniture belongs to the lady that owns the place. We move in on THURSDAY!

Polar Express

"Tickest Please. Everyone must have a ticket"

"Here we've only got one rule, never ever let it cool"

Finally, santa came!

We did it!! We rode the polar express all the way to the North Pole and got to see Santa! It was awesome! The girls had a blast!!

Let it Snow!

This year something happened. I'm not sure what, but something strange was in the air. In the past our girls have HATED the snow. They get wet, they are cold and cry the entire time we would try to entertain them with it. Well we had a bit of a snow flurry a couple of weeks ago and the girls went crazy. They LOVED it!!

Christmas Countdown

We had craft time at the Young home last week. The girls loved it. Although Rilee didn't want her picture taken with hers in the end, they both turned out SO GOOD!! Every night they get to rip off a link...a thing they look forward to every day!!
