Here Already??

Can it really be that time??  Time to load all these boxes into the back of a 53 foot semi!!  I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be friends on Facebook with your movers.....but then again, we really like our movers!  And we really appreciate their willingness to move us!

Everyone is soooo excited to move!  And this will be the longest week of our lives as we patiently wait for Friday to get here.  Both sets of grandparents are packed...well mostly, and ready to roll out of here.  Everyone is dreaming of cooler weather and Fall days.  Our K-7 grade kiddos are on Fall Break from school starting tomorrow.  They get two weeks off, so that means they will be home with me all day....helping me clean and finish up all the last minute packing.  

We will miss the wonderful friends that we made here.  We have been welcomed with open arms and have felt like it was home.  We won't miss the annoying crickets or the scorching hot pavement that fries your feet when you forget for just a moment and go someplace in you bare feet, we won't miss the thought of scorpions and black widows lurking in the dark shadows, we won't miss the $700+ electricity bills every month, we won't miss having the water come out of every faucet in the house warm no matter how long you let it run, we won't miss the dust storms that coat everything in their path....but we will miss having blue skies as far as the eye can see and the warm water in the swimming pool and the palm trees that sway in the breeze.

I will say, it's been an experience and we wouldn't have traded it for the world!!!  Stay tuned for our next adventure!!  It's going to be awesome!!
