I am starting to get excited about the impending move...we love our house...but, it's just a house, wood, paper and sticks..it's the love that we share inside that makes it a home. We are moving closer in town for schooling and therapy and the new house is substantially smaller than this goliath....and yet, I am SOOO ok with that. We thought this was what we wanted, before we knew what we needed. We didn't know that Tristan was going to have Autism, we didn't know that we would need to drive into town 35 miles one way for therapy 3 times a week...not to mention long drives to specialists clear across town...we didn't know that the school here was going to suck, plain out stink. We didn't know that we wouldn't have a grocery close to us...that if we needed last minute milk, we would have to pack a bag to go and get it. We didn't know that we would have to always pack a bag just in case we were in town too long....and lists, you know I love lists...but, we ALWAYS have to have a list going, because God forbid we go to town and not get something that we needed...
So, our new adventure is on the horizon. In July we should be moved, and I am excited. I am already planning our purge, we have soo much we are going to give away...I feel so happy about it. We will be going from a 4200 sq ft house into a 2600 sq ft. house, so, I may need your help sorting through it all!
I want to paint the walls with this. I can't wait to display my vintage apron collection in the kitchen...to rearrange all of our things in a new fashion. To go through the pictures and pick new ones to hang. To start over. A fresh new start. So, pray for us in the coming months, I will need all the help I can get to safely and sanely pack up all our stuff, all the while taking care of the kiddos and everything that entails. I will keep you all posted!!!

I can definitely put in some extra days/hours to help you get through the packing stage if you like :).
I would love to help you guys! I can help with a possible garage sale or taking stuff to a donation center, helping unpack or just play with Trinity and Tristan while you guys decorate and organize. Just say the word! Please! And I know Tristan's birthday is in July so if you want help planning him a little get together, I LOVE planning a party! I love you guys and want you to know I'm here if you need anything! :o) (((hugs)))
Aw, thanks, I will definitely take you up on the offers! We are thinking we may not do a big "to do" for little t this year, last year he was pretty overwhelmed, so, we may just keep it simple and family...but, if you want to come over for an impromptu birthday playdate, that would ROCK! We are easier to get to when we move, you just take Cotton Lane down the Indianschool, shoot on up to Verrado and BAM...playdate!!!!
Oh Jenn, I didn't realize you were moving further in! Are you going to be in Surprise? Is that where Verrado is?
