Busy Days

It has been a very busy several days.

At the beginning of June we made a Big Move. We gave up a house that was given to us by my
parents, we left the school Doodle had been attending for her first two years of school, I left a job I loved. The job had taught me a lot about myself and helped me grow past really hard trials in my life. After the move I needed to prove to myself and my children that it was for the better. We now have a home that I can see being very permanent living on my husbands family land. He will inherit this land and he takes much pride in it. My first step in showing my kids a better life is we are able to place them in extracurricular activities. In our former situation I neither had the time nor the money for such things.

Saturday we spent the morning at Doodle's game. She is a cheerleader for the local pee-wee football team. She is amazing, she exceeded my expectations in her ability to learn and perform. She learns new cheers quickly and practices all the time. The one practice a week is not enough for her so everyday after school we work on learning the cheers and improving her form. She is dedicated and happy and I could not ask for happier moments then when she makes everyone out here attend her small performances in the yard. We came home and cooked burgers and pork chops on the pit for my husbands birthday.

Sunday was spent finishing the preparations for our new trailer to arrive on Monday.

Monday my father-in-law T and I went to town to buy a few things needed for our new home. Shortly after we arrived back at the land, the trailer arrived. I spent several hours just sitting and watching them get it level and set it up. After cheer practice we were able to go inside and look at it. We discussed plans for where we would place furniture.

Tuesday they finished connecting the sewer and the water while I placed contact paper in the bottom of cabinents and drawers. I tell you this is something I hope I never have to do again. If I do I will wait till the AC is connected!!

I took a lazy day yesterday. Worked on my stitching and read my book. This morning the hubby is back at work and I really need to get things cleaned up around here. Electric gets hooked up tomorrow so the weekend will be spent moving in.

I am so incredibly happy and I cant express it enough. We have so many plans for our life and they are not dreams that will never be obtained. They are plans for a simple life but a happy one. This is my white picket fence life. I look forward to getting chickens and planting a garden in the spring. To signing Rhyno up for baseball. Getting horses in a few years.
