Alive

Sorry for the emotion in the previous post. While reading my book (The Continuous Atonement) the night I wrote the post, there was a very powerful section on Anger that really helped me get a handle on my emotions. What a good book that was!!

So, we are alive and in the new house. I still need to clean bathrooms & vacuum upstairs before turning the keys over.

We have unloaded and started the unpacking process again. We have the toy room unpacked (the 1st one to get done!) and the kitchen is mostly done (only dry food left). We are more than 1/2 done on the master bedroom and the kids rooms. We have been painting (watch for the reveal soon!) the living room. The new furniture will be delivered tomorrow and hopefully we will get it all together soon! It is difficult getting used to paint after white walls all our married life. We are going to paint our bedroom at the end of the week and the toy room next week. The kids want to pick out a color.

Anyway, watch for pictures soon!

Check it out..

Check out the new pictures of the kids on the side of the blog. Each one fits his/her personality so well! Kennie is doing what he was told to do..."smile". Justin is being his cheesy self! Always my poser. Nate is goofing off and doing what ever he wants to do and Maggie is making everyone laugh. Oh so perfect!

On another note, we are moving again. Next Wednesday we will start packing up the boxes. Thursday will be more boxes and Friday we will load, transport and unload. Since no one is really close enough to help, we would appreciate any prayers you could send our way. It is going to take all I have to do another move. We are staying in Anchorage, but just moving to a new neighborhood. When we told Justin about our move, he cried and cried. He had finally stopped and then Aaron mentioned we would be attending a new ward....he turned it back on again. Oh brother!! Anyway, he has said many times that he is going to miss Colten. Nate still insists he is going to come play with Colten every day. Stacie, I think you might assume responsibility for another child.....

That's it for now. I will probably not post for another few weeks. School starts next week and then we are boxing, moving and unboxing. Wish me luck!!

Drumroll please.....

We got the news......

in 4 months.......

we will be moving to........

ANCHORAGE ALASKA!!!

Please keep in mind that this can change at any moment. The Airforce is notorious at changing things once they are "set in stone." We are excited. Aaron's report date is July 31st. We look forward to 4 years in Alaska. Now, off to put the kids to bed and then look at houses in Anchorage!!
