Our New Home Town!

So for Family Home Evening tonight we had a short little lesson (Danzer of course sat quietly with his arms folded... YEA RIGHT!) and then took off in Hayd's new ride to take pics of our new home town. Here are lots of pics with some explanation. Although... some things... I just can't explain ;)

This picture is for my sis. Only she can truly appreciate it. This is parked right across the street from our house. Every time I go outside I see it and think of her. It's 1 of the 500 times I think of her and her family a day ;)
It's really hard to get a picture of main street... but here it is.
The Junction Roller-rama. No, we have not been. But we sure intend to!
Junction High School
The store Conchos and Crosses. For the Junction Fashionista!
The city pharmacy. Which Hayden says is an integral part of the community. The peeps here can't live without their drugs apparently!
The Milky Way. Junction's version of the "Grub Box" with the added bonus of a spiritual message. Seriously... where else can you get a burger, fries, and some spiritual guidance? They throw it in for free!
This is the company we bought our 3 acre lot from. When we build... we will use the same type of limestone on the outside. Typical Hill Country look. Pretty huh?
The local liquor store. Enough said. Does the deer look buzzed?
This is for my dad. The KOA campground right by the river. It's really gorgeous. The sun is too bright to see it real well though.
My beloved Dairy Queen. Come to mama!
They know me by name here. Route 44 diet sprite with extra ice and lime please! MMMM
Plumley's. Seriously good sammies and homemade fudge to DIE FOR!
Our beloved Best Western where we spent our first week in Junction.
A "Do It" center in Junction! Parker Lumber... for all your lumber needs! (seriously, the nicest guys around!)
The pink camo deer blind for sale at Parker's is almost more than I can take! Tiff- I know you will love this! And seriously... Texans do not really know how to hunt. They sit in these deer blinds... warm and cozy... with their hot cocoa... trip the corn feeder and the deer come to them. Um, hello, I don't think they could handle a real Utah deer hunt to save their lives!
The front of the hospital. Good thing they are breaking ground on the new one in June. It's seriously disturbing inside.
The ER where my husband spends his days saving lives ;). Love that I can say that! So proud!
The clinic where Hayden sees his patients. They will be building a new one of these as well. GOOD THING!
Our Favorite BBQ place. Lum's. Seriously amazing BBQ!
The deer horn tree in town. A subtle tribute to the hunters ;)
The County Grill. This is the restaurant that Ms. Kathy and her husband own. Sweetest older couple you could meet and her chicken fingers are to DIE FOR! Not the pre-packaged crap... real pieces of chicken, hand breaded, and fried. So good!
Super S Foods where Danzer and I go grocery shopping!
Hayden knew it was love at first sight when he saw this the first time he visited Junction. Enough said!
Exactly how we feel about Junction ;)
The local Saloon! You can find me here every night between 11pm and 2am ;)
That little playground across the river is where we take Danzer almost every night. It's so fun! And right on the river! He loves it!!!
Just some geese saying Hi at the park
Here they all come. They think we have the goods... sorry geesies... no bread!
Cute ducks!
The Junction Bridge you cross to come into town. It's gorgeous!
A view of the whole city. Well, not all of it. It's really pretty!
Another pic from Lover's point.
The cross at Lover's point that lights up at night and you can see from every where in town.
Danzer and Dad!
Another pic from Lover's point. Too bad the sun is so bright.
Drum roll please....... HAYDEN'S NEW BABY! We washed it for the 3rd time tonight and we've only had it a week. He can't stop grinning!
She is a beaut! All kinds of chrome accessories will be here tomorrow!
Danzer loves this new truck almost as much as dad! "Vroom vroom" he says whenever he rides in it!
Me trying to wrangle him in for a good picture. Nearly impossible. This kid never stops moving!
Cute babe! He seriously is so handsome!
Danzer and I outside our house. Check out the belly on that girl. GOODNIGHT!
Us again outside the house. We love our little home!
Another view of the house.
Well, there you have it. Of course... it's MUCH better in person. SO GET YOUR BUTTS DOWN HERE!

Oh my heck Kel, this looks like a little piece of heaven!! Except for the sissy hunting! The pink camo blind is AmAzInG!! I may need to procure me one of those bad boys! Seriously SO jealous of the new wheels! I knew Hayd wanted one in a serious way, I just didn't know how serious. That is one lucky life saver! Love the preggo tummy! I can't wait to see the new little addition! You need to also tell Danzer to quit growing! He seriously looks like a little man! Last time I saw him he still qualified as a "baby". I sure miss you guys! More pictures are always apreciated! Ü

Your little town is so cute and charming! Danzer is getting so big and you're right he is so handsome! Your house is adorable as well- love how you've decorated it!

Oh my....I'm IN LOVE with Junction. Can't wait to get there - won't be long now. The Prelude...such good memories. Can't wait to wake up to that view every morning! And the truck - WOW! Gorgeous!! But, not nearly as cute as Danzer. He looks so stinkin' big. Can't wait to wrap my arms around that little bugger and kiss his cheeks. 20 DAYS AND COUNTING!! Love you to pieces!

WOO! Gotta love small towns!!!!! Reminds me a lot of Hurricane and also a bunch of little places in New Mexico.

Mark wants a truck so bad--we are trying to do landscaping and it just ain't working with our tiny cars!

And that hospital looks like it will be an exciting place to deliver.....seriously....

Love that your Honda Prelude is waiting for you everyday when you walk out of your house. That was a fun little tour. What a quaint little town. You look great and i'm so glad you're doing so well. When's that little babe due?

Hi guys!

Your new town looks beautiful, and so do you mama! I hope Hayden's new job is working out well. Sweet truck! Preston will be very jealous. I hope you all are well. Good luck with all of the upcoming baby stuff. I miss you guys! But I am so glad that you have a blog to keep us all updated. Did your place in Cleveland get sold? I don't know if you know that we have a blog, so here it is in case www.prestonandambergleave.blogspot.com.
