About Me

My photo
I am a mother of two great and very different little girls and a wife of a great man. We try to live our lives to glorify God. Hendersonville, TN (just north of Nashville)is where we call home. John and I both love SEC football...just two different teams. Baseball is my favorite, especially the St. Louis Cardinals. We both cherish those close to us and strive to love God to our best ability daily.

We did it!

We moved.  All of our belongings are in our house.  The house that we own.  The house that we built.  There is more space in there than what we know to do with.  Here is an album with the building progress which was not all that bad.  In fact, we enjoyed it and would recommend our builder! 

It is still hard to believe, that we have this place to live that isn't in my parents basement.  We were very blessed to be able to stay with them for 10 months and save some (a lot really) money.  But we had a routine and it had become "life".  Now we are making a change.  A good change, but a change.  

Kelsey has seemed to adjust pretty quickly and well.  She does miss her Mimi and Grandaddy and each time we drive by their road she waves.  She likes her room (the only one in the house that is set up and organized).  We have to buy her a bed and dresser and hang decor and curtains, but she loves the pink and purple.  And she has a huge closet!




And this is the rest of the house.  (Not really at all actually...just the dining room which is the catch all at the moment.)  We have unpacked the kitchen.  I guess technically my mom and aunt did that all day Saturday while we moved furniture and more boxes in.   

Let me just take this little tangent to say that I have an awesome family that came to help out over the weekend.  My grandparents took Kesley Friday night and brought her to us Saturday evening.  Mom and Dad not only let us live with them for 10 months, but helped us move, unpack, wash laundry, get food, run errands, etc....  My cousins, Molly, Chase and Chad all came to help us move along with Uncle Mark.  And Aunt Debbie helped in unpacking the kitchen and washing all my dishes that had been in a stinky storage locker for several months!  Uncle Kelly was our agent and patient with us while we figured out what we wanted.  The in-laws and great grandma were huge blessings during this time as well!  Thanks to all!

OK back to the post.  There is nothing on a single wall just yet.  Oh I take that back.  I hung one picture in Kelsey's bathroom the other night and her bow holder in her closet (pictured above).  But no curtains or other pictures hanging yet.  It will come and hopefully soon!  John's parents are bringing his grandmother to see the house next weekend and we will have curtains and wall hangings by then.  YES WE WILL!  

So more unpacking and organizing for us tonight and tomorrow and the next day and the next.......
