Another year older

It's official I am getting old! After working a full time job for the last 5 years and getting married, I never really felt like a full grown-up. For some reason this birthday is making me feel one like an adult and two kind of old. So far it's been a fabulous day and was able to talk to some pretty fabulous people! I am interested in what this year will bring:)

Countdown

The countdown has begun! We are praying only two weeks until our big move! A lot of things have been on my mind, such as "I wonder how quick our house will sell" or "is this move the right one to make" all we can do is pray! It's amazing how great prayer is and how it works. We are looking forward to starting this new journey. It's going to be a great one!

3 Homes

I have never thought I would be able to fix, clean, and pack 3 homes in one day! Well I did!!! Last night the hubster and I took our first load of stuff to the lake house ( I walked in my house today, it's still dirty). I woke up this morning and cleaned my whole closet, and all the drawers in my room. Prepping for our arrival, which will hopefully happen in 2-3 weeks!!! After emptying my old room, which may I add threw away all my childhood things; that made me a bit sad. I then headed to Nadine's house to help her with painting, that took a good five hours. I headed home and immediately started packing up our home. This is the hardest part, it's bittersweet. We have made so many sweet memories in our first home. It's hard to let it go, to say that final good-bye, not knowing if you're making the right decision. Jonathan has been fantastic through all of this, I struggle with the feeling I am taking him away from his home. I just continue to think " it's for the kids."

Well my break seems to be over, I have to continue packing.

As they say: keep on keeping on!

Blogging

So I have decided that I am going to try real hard to blog more frequently. So then I thought " I am going to need something to blog about." when we got home from St. Louis, I was lying in bed thinking about all sorts of things to blog about. When I woke up I couldn't think of one those things. So I let the ideas float in my head hoping that one of them would pop up; so far it's a fail! I hope that this "brain fart" will soon end so that I will lots to blog about:)

Until next time!

Life as We know it!

This past weekend was incredible! We took a trip to the great St. Louis where we visited my sister, brother-in-law, and sweet little Simon. He has grown so much since the last time we saw him!
I also had a refresher course on sewing which has put so many ideas in my mind on what to make; Saturday j made a skirt:
I think I am going to enjoy sewing; it's soothing to me, it's my time to explore the world of fabric.

Since my last entry (which almost a whole year ago) Jonathan and I have celebrated our first year of marriage; definitely a relief. People do not lie when they say the first year is the hardest. I am forever grateful for my sweet hubs for putting up with me! It's been great. We are in the process of moving closer to Greenville. I cannot wait! Driving an hour to work then an hour home is not worth it to me, we miss out on so much in life; from hanging out with friends, date nights, and seeing family.
So we shall see how it all goes: I keep praying it will go according to plan:)
