Moving In

We recently just moved into our brand new house. Construction started back in Aug/Sept 08 and we closed on the house Dec 30th!

Here is our beautiful home. We are still working on getting everything where we want it. And getting pictures on the walls. I will post more pictures when we have finished some of our projects.




One of our first projects was ceiling fans... as you can see Maddie was a big help.





One of the great things about our new house, is that we got to get all of our belongings out of storage after nearly 2 years. It was like Christmas opening up the boxes as we had missed our stuff after so long.

I introduced Maddie to the wonders of the Air Pop Popcorn Popper. I was always amazed by this when I was little, and she gets so excited to see the popcorn pop. She pulls the chair up over to the island and she knows exactly which cabinet the Popcorn Popper is in and says "Pop Pop!" Here is a picture of her eating her first batch of popcorn in our new house. Yup thats right, she is eating out of a Wok! Why? Because we can!

I found it! I found it! I found it!

Well, here we are agian! How to begin again?

I have recently found an old friend that I went to college with on Facebook. I haven't seen nor heard from her in about 3-4 years I guess it's been. Well, I was excited to see that she has a blog for her family. So of course I read the most recent posts and enjoyed it so much that I found my self one day going all the way to the begining of her blog and read every last word! The whole time I am reading I am thinking about my 2 failed attempts at my own blog, wondering to myself if anyone was so interested that they would read every last word I ever posted? So I tried to sign into my blog and with no avail.. Again, I had forgotten how to do so!!!

Well fast forward a few weeks to today, I checked my email and there was a email from an old family friend from when I was just a child. She had commented on one of my old posts from my old blog and said "you haven't posted in so long, I hope everything is okay". OMG! I thought to myself, someone was actually interested!!!! So thankfully I was able to access my blog from that email and here I am! Wahooo! Wahoo! I actually did the "I found it" Dance with Maddie in the living room after I realized how to sign in agian!

So Yippeee! Here we go at "Round 3"! I don't know if it will be as interesting as some other blogs that I read, but I always enjoy seeing what is going on it other's lives, so hopefully someone will get enjoyment out of our blog. If nothing else, it will be gratifiying if I am actually able to keep up with it for longer than a week.

Wish me luck.. I have a lot to post!
