Hello, I am ba-ack!

Ok - so the ole "dog ate my homework" excuse doesn't really apply, but I do have a good reason for not blogging in so long.  I even have evidence!

I believe I left off right before this....



We returned home to this...



We worked on our house around the clock and pretty much lived at Home Depot.  Beckett was about the only one excited to go there for the 4th time in a weekend, four weekends in a row.


I also made daily trips to a storage unit to clear out all of our junk.


But before you feel too sorry for me, I did get to do this....



Bahamas cruise to Grank Turk, Half Moon Key, and Nassau?  Yes, please!

Three days after coming home we stuck a little sign in front of our house...



It's been exhausting.



So, yeah.... it's been busy.  Really stressful.  Please remind me of this experience when I get a wild idea to sell our house in a few years.  You can just bury me in our new home because I never want to go through this stress again!

To make a long story short we never intended on selling our house at this time.  Yes, it was hard having Guy's office RIGHT next to the baby's room, we were completely out of space for Guy's work equipment, and there was really no where for a future baby to go when the time was right BUT we love our little house and felt pretty darn comfortable right where we were.  However life has a way of showing you opportunities in the weirdest ways.

In a matter of weeks we got our house ready to sell, found a perfect new home, got multiple offers, signed contracts, lost our offers, nearly backed out of everything, got more offers, signed more contracts, and have pretty much been driven crazy with the whole thing.  As of now it looks like we will move the 2nd weekend in October.  I really, really, really hope that is the case.

I'm not even sure WHERE to begin on updating posts - I will get there, it just may take me some time.  And a few glasses of Chardonnay.  In the meantime, here are some pics I should have posted but never did.
