Moved in!

We have now moved into our house, it is so much fun. We only had enough from to fill up the Jeep, but we are having a blast, have to take a bit of time off from the internet because the new place doesn't have it. Working on getting internet through alltell up here, details to come later.

New Day, new tude.

Today I am feeling much much better. Yesterday I was sad. No particular reason, just was.
We applied for jobs online last night. Looked into getting high speed internet upnorth too, which will turn out to be much more affordable then I thought. Phew.
Spending time with God today. We are going to drive upnorth, our Jeep is packed. I am actually excited for it today. Lucky how God works. I am scared/worried/lonely/upset. I say a small prayer and He is there for me. Eventhough I have been rebelious lately. He is there for me. I think that is the source of my depression lately. Haven't been turning to God for help. I've been rebelious.
Thank you, Lord for who you are, that even if I am rebelious to you, you still are there. Loving me. Helping me through the counseling words of my friend. Thank you God for the people that You put there for me. Amen.
SO... off to a different type of day with a different type of attitude.

We're moving

Tomorrow.
I am not feeling great about it right now, just because it means moving our things 4 hours away from my family. I am excited for obvious reasons, like getting my kids into a consistant routine at home. Today is a stressful day though. We removed all of our belongings from the place where we have called home for the last few weeks, to move them to an unfamiliar place to get re-adjusted again. I am looking forward to being in a house! And living with just the kids and my wonderful husband. I am excited that I can redecorate, and set it all up. I am excited that I am going to be getting a part time job so we can pay off some bills and afford the house :) I think that it will be good for me now to have a job. I am still waiting to hear about our benefits and stuff... it has been stressful because we have been changing counties ever since we moved from our apartment, and it takes a lot of work to change our unemployment type things. Oh well though, God has helped us through it all, and we are doing well. (Although my nerves are quite frayed at this point). I really look forward to people visiting us though, because we can make a weekend of it! :)
I am excited to be around my neices and nephews. I am looking forward to the fishing we will do on bass lake up there. Can't wait for that!

SOOOOO CHEESY

I was flipping to find Wy some cartoons and came across this little part of Full house. OH my gosh... I loved that show when I was little. What was your fav when you were young?

Woooohoooo for a house!

We found out yesterday that we are going to be moving into a house in Tripoli. It is on the same road as Ben's brother and his family. I can't tell you how excited I am to have a consistant schedule, and a place to actually call home. Thrilled.

Wednesday 7/15/09

Today has been fun with the kids. They, as my friend Kate says it "rock my socks".

We had little Grams over to the house today, she watched the kids play outside and I saw her smile lots, which is good.

We ran some errands, but I tried to be calm and patient. Two traits I have seriously lacked lately. It is actually really sad. I need to re-read Mitten Strings for God.

I miss my husband. Left him behind on Sunday. He is coming home soon I think. I can't wait to have a place to call home. My children ask me sometimes "Where is home?" Good question.

I am working on an afghan right now and making progress, it feels good. I am reading a couple of good things, and trying hard to find peaceful moments to relish. It is working. Listening to music helps. Quiet prayer helps. Talking to my friends, it all helps. Yet there are times during the day where I feel so overwhelmed. All a work in progress.

Our fam from upnorth (Christopher, Julie, and kids) are coming to stay here for the weekend. Tomorrow we visit "Doms" and I am really excited. My sister, Mom, and us are all going to be going there, and it will be a nice time to relax and enjoy.

Blessings to you.

Happy 11th Birthday, Hunter~

Maximus joined in on the fun! <3> My dear sweet hilarious niece, Autumn. She's 7. She's good at it.

My other dear sweet niece Kristina. She turns 10 on Thursday. She is wonderful. Precious, and I just love her.

See?

Hahaha then you go to this little one. She really was frustrated with her cousin who had the camera. Hunter tried to get a good one, but she just was mad at him that day, hence the face.

And this little man is a whole different story. George Douglas. 4 years old and you would never know it. He has dirt on his face. He loves dirt. And because of Georgie my Wyatt's face looked similar the whole time we were upnorth. They played in the dirt daily.

Birthday boy!

He is so handsome. I remember when he was like 3 years old and he would say "Auntie Sara, you are beautiful." "You are too Hunter" "I'm not beautiful, I am handsome!!!" He is.

Bleeeeh

Maximus. Or as Adi calls him "Mackey"


...and now it is sometimes, "Mack"


This is Anna. One of their pooches. And Max's girlfriend.
