It's been awhile since my last post. A lot of things have happened since. We have bought and sold a house, went on vacation and are now preparing for the long holiday weekend ahead. Things are so hectic right now, but we have had a lot of good times.
We purchased a new home the middle of June and have moved in. Well, if you can call it moved. We have relocated our things, let's put it that way. We still have unpacking left to do, however we are slowly but surely getting things straightened out. The kids love the new house. It has a basement they can run in and a fenced in backyard. I will love it more when I get my furniture for the upstairs. We put our old stuff in the basement and are awaiting delivery on our upstairs. Once I get my bedroom outfit and can straighten up my walk in closet I will be much happier. Until then, things are kind of a mess.
Right after the move we packed up and took the kids on vacation to Wisconsin Dells, WI. It was a blast as always. This year was probably the most relaxing and fun year for me. I would say that some of that has to do with the fact that the kids are a little older, so they can fun and play a little more freely with me watching from a distance, as opposed to trying to keep up with them. The rest was probably that I was just totally mentally and physically drained from the move, so was very ready for the much needed break. The kids had a blast at the water parks! The last day we were there was beautiful outside and no one wanted to leave, in fact, Phil said if we would've asked he probably would've let us stay another day. If only we had known that!! Now everday my kids ask if we get to go on vacation today and when the answer is no, they just ask when we get to go back. I really think they had a good time!
Now this weekend is a long holiday weekend, which of course means another weekend full of fun. Phil plays softball tonight and Saturday we have some catching up things around the house before we head out to a birthday party. Sunday is the town's big Fourth of July event which is always a good time and then Monday will be our day to recover. I don't know how much faster time can go by, but anymore it seems like it just flies. I'm really enjoying it, however wouldn't mind things to slow down just a bit. Happy 4th of July Everyone!
