Uncle Brad 
I hope you enjoy your day and you get to rest up and eat some cake!!!!! How old now 29???? hehe
Oh man it’s only Monday????? I can’t wait for Friday I’m EXHAUSTED!!!!!!! Well the big news is we moved!! I removed all the password protected entries and will let everyone know now that we moved! We were keeping it low until everything was final…and it is……we are all settled in and enjoying it to so much! Once I get things all away I will take some pics to share with you all of our new place, maybe a lil vid too just for you Auntie Meme I just want to thank everyone who helped us move…..I would name you all but my memory is so bad I’d forget someone………so you know who you are THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I’m off to bed now back to work tomorrow. Hope everyone has a good night!
needs our prayers right now as she is in the hospital and facing the ugly C word again! This woman is super strong to have been fighting cancer now for 9.5 years!!!! The things she has gone though, the pain, the treatments and the changes to her body that she has to deal with daily…simply amazes me! She loves life and wants nothing more than to have more time with her family and grand kids. So please take a moment out of your day to say a small prayer for someone who would greatly appreciate it and needs it! Nana (aka Kay) is a fighter and we hope she can fight through this and get her wish to have more time with her family! We are praying hard for you Nana Kay!
To the RIGHT of the pantry door (or right side of the pic) is the entrance way to the addition which leads to the door to the outside deck (this is the door we will be using as the door on the other side of the house has no step LOL). I think Mom would have a hard time HOPIN up to that door with no step LOL…although I’d love ta see her try haha.
Here’s a pic from the road.
Well since we are moving and we won’t have a basement anymore (we have a full size basement now so we will miss that) I realized we are going to have to be SUPER organized! No room for any kind of clutter at ALL. Even though the space is 1254sq feet it’s still not huge and we just need to declutter regularly and keep things in its place.
We had a big ole yard sale and got rid of lots of stuff we don’t use anymore but still have a few things that need doing. Once we move in my main plan is going to be finding a home for everything and making sure everyone puts whatever back in its SPOT OR ELSE I will breathe fire and blow them up! NO KIDDING
I love an organized home and with my memory being so bad (car accident related issues) my doctor did suggest that if things are in routine it will help me out a lot. So if I keep everything in the same place it will cause me less stress and frustration. Now I need to get the rest of the rugrats and hubby on board or I seriously will HURT THEM!
When things are organized and neat it just makes you feel better. I can’t handle chaos and with packing and having the kitchen table in the living room LOL things are getting to me and I’m SUPER ready to move! I can’t live like thisssssssssssssssssss! I need neat, clean and organization in my life haha.
I also have a plan for my mother because everyday I talk to her (and I do talk to her everyday cuz well I worry about her being alone, falling down and waiting at the bottom of the basement stairs for someone………anyone……..to help her LOL)….but after talking to her everyday she says the same things “I’m cleaning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” I just want to know what she is cleaning! I guess this is why her house is spotless! Seriously though I think your cleaning efforts are going to waste Mom so I am going to pick you up once a week and bring you over to clean I hate to see you bored, I hate to see your wonderful organized hands and mind go to waste………it hurts me inside SERIOUSLY haha! I want you to be happy and I know cleaning and organizing makes you happy……….so because I LOVE YOU SO MUCH I will allow you to clean my home! See how much I loves ya
Anyways I started in the basement and put everything into Rubbermaid containers and labeled the containers with what is in it. This way when we place them in the shed I can just open the door and go hmmm haaa oh ya there it is……..see it says RIGHT THERE IN PERMAMENT INK “JD’s JUNK” and I can throw it out when he’s not around LOL……..ok ok that was a joke he only has one big container I will let him have it haha. Its funny it holds some funny things like old love letters from his many “GIRLY” fans haha. A stuffy he made I think lol and some books, and other lil boxes of lil gadgets he can’t part with. I will let him have his 2×3sq feet of space in the shed, see I’m a very caring person and awesome wife
Anyways have a great night ladies I’m off to pack a bit more LOL
If you want the password for the “top secret” post you will have to email me and ask nicely ok ok you don’t have to ask nicely but you do have to email me and tell me a joke or something haha! have a great night everyone I’m off to bed that is if I can make my way through the…….

Me: “Toys!!!!!!! You have too many toys now”

Me: “To many words? what do you mean”
Will: “Too many words coming out you mouth I want quite now NO MORE WORDS”

Me: “Buy me flowers? why?”
Will: “cuz when Dada makes you mad he buy you foulers”

We are moving!!!!!!!!!! We just bought a cute/cozy mobile home with a nice size addition not far from us now. It’s just up the street and we are moving Aug 22, can’t wait! It’s on a double lot so the dogs and kids have a nice big yard to play in, we are MOST excited about this as we have NO YARD NOW BARELY…..its so small so we love the size of this yard!!!!!!!!! We just can’t wait I am in the process of packing up all our crap and hopefully moving day will go SMOOTH LOL. Somehow I doubt it though moving sucks!!!!!!!!!! haha
Here are some pics from when we viewed the place:
Kitchen:
Living Room (that’s a wood burning fireplace that they have their sofa in front of):
Hallway leading to the bedrooms/bathroom:
Bathroom (this is going to be our first project we already have big plans to RE-DO this can’t wait:
Master Bedroom (we didn’t take a pic but at the foot of the bed that wall there has a nice big closet and a place for the treadmill):
This will be the girls room (they want to paint it, I think the colors they are talking about include PINK, BABY BLUE and SAGE GREEN):
Will’s room:
The yard and 2 sheds:
There is a nice size deck and an addition which serves as storage and entrance way. There is lots of storage in this place compared to most other mobiles we looked at. The first thing we want to do this year is paint the deck and trim it needs it badly. Then inside we want to re-do the bathroom, replace all the flooring in all the bedrooms and next year we hope to start replacing some windows the doors on the other side. We also want to put a lil deck/step on the other side and fence in that area just for the dogs. I will keep posting pics of before and after as we progress but for now we just want to MOVE haha!
We are very happy and can’t wait to get moved in and have a PARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok so this is a crazy busy month between work, photo shoots and all the other stuff we have been up ta!!!!!!!!! Being sick didn’t help either and I am just pooped! I’m climbing on the sofa and poppin in a movie!!!!!!!!!
Hope everyone has a good night
