What a CRAZY last few weeks!

Well we finally made our move up north! We got a cute little 2 bedroom place with a nice backyard. It's perfect for our little family. Although we have acquired WAY too much junk over the years for a 2 bedroom place. As my dad would say... "oil well" We are all adjusting well to being back together and just trying to get situated and unpacked so that this feels more like home! We are getting there, slowly but surely. Here is a picture that was taken right after everything was unloaded off the U-Haul. I felt pretty overwhelmed as you can probably imagine!

We figured a way to be able to use our old couch. We thought we were going to have to give it up and get something smaller but we can keep it so we are happy about that. You can see stuff is starting to dwindle.

Here's Casey, as I know most of you only check this blog to see pictures of her! She is so very close to standing up on her own! Just a matter of days. Also, I have since gotten rid of that red and white chair. We just didn't have space and it no longer goes with the new decor I'm going to try to go for. We gave it to 2 young girls who just got an apartment together. I'm glad it went to a good home! This past Saturday, (my birthday), they had some people come and build a fence around our cement patio area to make it safer for Casey. YAY. It's cute. I'm not sure if they are going to come paint it or if they are leaving that up to us... we shall see.

I had a great birthday. It was very low key and I missed my family but was so very happy the 3 of us could be together. I made a nice dinner and some delicious funfetti cupcakes. Enjoyed a bottle... yes a bottle of wine (to myself ahahhaa) at least it was small. Erik has been busy with his class that he is taking. He will be consumed with this class over the next few weeks but this means bigger and better things for him (and us!)

Anyway, I'm sorry it took so long to update the blog. As things start calming down, I will update more. Miss you all very much! This week should be fun and emotional all at the same time. Jen will be visiting us on Tuesday. Wednesday is Big C's birthday and I'm really sad I wont be home to be with my family. My heart is with you all. And Thursday, Shellia is coming up. This weekend Joe and Randy will be up for a gun show so we will be with alot of Friends this week. :)

Love to all!
