We moved into a new home the weekend before Labor Day. We are in the same neighborhood, but we changed wards. It was bittersweet to leave so many friends, we were there for almost 9 years. I can't say that I wasn't a little grateful to have Mike released from the bishopric, however. :) It was a blessing to have him serve, but we are excited to have him home on Sundays again.
Our new home has beautifully landscaped yards, front and back. There is a square of dirt, perfect for a little garden. I am unsure if we will get to plant one, because the boys have taken it over as their personal digging pit. Oh the joys of mud and dirt for little boys!
In the midst of settling into a new place, we are trying to rent out our condo. We have a few minor finishing touches, but the big stuff is done (like Mike rebuilding the master bath shower, from the studs out...) and still looking for someone to rent it. So stressful!
On top of this, Mike is changing jobs today and that will be a new challenge for us, as well.
Oh, and did I mention I have started a little business of my own? Yes, I have made a few custom little boy's ties and I am also making busy bags and quiet books. I am excited and worried about balancing all of this. Still working on getting a site set up for this and possibly starting an etsy shop...
Then Halloween is coming up and my boys have decided that they want to be Ninjago Ninjas, so yards and yards of colored cotton broadcloth, pleather and fabric paint, here I come!
Oh, life is full and busy and a little stressful, but it is good. So good.
