It's been so long.....

So I'm back-sort of...well, hopefully.......Life has been pretty nuts the last 6 months.  Who am I kidding?.... the last year.  We began a new school year, football and cheerleading went great and we cruised into the holidays hoping things would slow down and we could enjoy some quiet time before spring sports began.  That didn't quite go as planned.....

Around the first of December we had a real estate agent, and friend, call us to say she had a client who would like to purchase a house in our neighborhood.  That had driven by our house and wanted to look at it if we were interested in selling.  Crazy!!  We thought about it for about an hour and then said, "Why not?!".  I went home and cleaned and decluttered like a crazy woman.  They looked at the house on that Friday and signed contracts at lunch that day!  It was a breeze, except for the little detail that they wanted to close by December 20th!  We had Robo's 10th birthday, a snow skiing trip, Christmas to prepare for, and NO PLACE TO LIVE!  Long story short- we found a house to rent immediately, moved only what would fit and put everything else into storage.  It was a wild few weeks but it has been awesome.

Since selling we have purchased some land (13 acres), had house plans drawn up, dug water line, and today they are beginning to form up the slab!!!  We are so excited (and ready to move out of this small rental).

Here's a few pictures of that last few months.....

Snow skiing/boarding...the kids did great for their first time!

My sweet, sassy girl!

We can't wait for this adventure to get into full swing and start seeing our new home come to life! Here's to hoping more frequent posts start coming!....
