Yay, I'm back!

Life the past 6 weeks has been an adventure, to say the least!  We've been with family, in a trailer (5th wheel) and housesat for some amazing friends.  We are so sick of eating out and living out of bins.  But, as of this past weekend, we are now officially home!  We've moved into our new- old home!  Life has been extremely simple these past few weeks.

What did I miss-
1.  My camera and computer - I took photos, but didn't have my computer to view the images!
2.  My washer and dryer (thank you so much to Jen, Erin, Bea & Jodi for letting me do wash at your house while we were in the trailer)
3.  My bed!  Don't get me wrong, we were super thankful to my brother for letting us borrow his 5th wheel, but my 6'4" husband and I slept awful in the full size bed.
4. My kitchen - I missed cooking and baking!  I even missed doing dishes (so sick of paper goods)
5. Having a bathroom close by (we had to walk around the house every time we needed to use the bathroom)
6. Having our puppy close - poor girl had to be alone in the backyard because the trailer was just too small for her!
7. A place for my children to do homework - like the kitchen table

What I didn't miss-
1.  Television - it was amazing not having the tv on!  I didn't miss it all!  Felt a little out of the loop on things, but Iphone did the trick when I wanted an update
2.  The cleaning - since Friday I have been cleaning floors and dusting and boy am I exhausted!
3.  Television - wait I said that already!
4.  The kids fighting over the Wii
5.  The television - oops! I guess I really didn't miss that!

We are so thrilled to be in our new home.  We love the neighborhood.  We love the location.  We love how close we are to so many wonderful friends and church and school.  We feel blessed and satisfied.  We can't wait to share our new home with all our friends and loved ones in the years ahead!
