Settling in

So we've moved into our new home. We've gotten rid of the boxes and the garage looks like a war zone. The girls are really enjoying having a playroom again and I enjoy having all my stuff. Speaking of stuff, we have too much of it. We've lived without so much of it for 8 months that I feel like we don't really need it. I've already gone to Goodwill a thousand times.
We are really happy with the house and the neighborhood. We had the neighbors across the street over yesterday for a little cook out. We don't have grass in the backyard yet, so it makes it difficult to play back there. The girls finally got their swingset back from gma and gpas house. I'm still working on my masters and have been taking a 5 week class during all this moving stuff. It's been rough but I can see the light...

Moving

I hate moving...

Not a bad weekend

We haven't really done a lot this weekend. We're gearing up for the next 2 weekends, I think. Ran errands on Saturday and played outside on Sunday. The girls are really into making new friends where ever we are. They are playing with this little 2nd grader down the street today. They think she is "it". Not too sure momma wants her little girls playing with such an older girl...oh well...
We go tomorrow for the walk-thru of the house. I'm excited, but nervous. With everything that has happened with houses so far, I don't want to get giddy, just yet. I'll get giddy on Thursday around 2:30pm.

Emma Funny

Just a little funny from Emma tonight...
We were riding home from dinner with my dad and Tammy. Emma had a surgical glove balloon and she was licking it. Jeremy told her to stop and get it away from her mouth. She kissed it and he said, "If you put it near your mouth again, I'm going to take it from you and pop it." Emma's reply was, "If you don't look back here you won't see me put it near my mouth, now will you?" I about died. Good thing I was acting like I was asleep!!!!

New house

Finally, maybe we have a place to call house! We have been trying very hard to call this condo home, but it's been hard. Those of you who know me well, know that I am a bit of a neat freak. Having a small little place with 3 children (yes, jeremy is included) and a dog with lots and lots of stuff is hard. It's gotten to where I don't care if it gets cleaned up because it won't last but 5 minutes. So, anyway, we put an offer on a house and the offer has been accepted. I am about to wake the girls up for school and after I drop them off I will be going to meet the inspector. I'm excited, but not getting too excited. Things have had a way of sliding off track lately with these houses. I will be excited when I have the keys in hand. I'll post some pics later of the house. Or maybe I should wait until I have a mortgage to go with the pics...

First time

Wow! I'm really online with a blog for the family. Never thought it would happen.
