The Big Move

We've been so busy this summer that I've had trouble finding time to write about all the things that have been keeping us busy!  A couple of weeks into the summer we moved!  Initially we hadn't planned to begin our house hunt until next spring, but an unfortunate series of events (water leak, garage ceiling cave-in, etc.) actually turned out to be quite fortunate!  Once we had all the repairs made our house looked better than ever and we decided to move forward with the big move.  In all honesty, house hunting was more stressful than I had expected it to be and Todd literally took on a second job making sure everything on the purchasing and negotiating side was taken care of.  But, all the hard work and effort was well worth it.  Since Cade and Luke were born, we wanted so many things in a home that...as much as we loved it...the townhouse just didn't offer.  We have always wanted a great neighborhood full of kids for them to grow up with, a big yard for them to run around in, a play room just for them (and their toys!), and a pool to enjoy in the summer.  We were blessed enough to find a home that had everything we were looking for and moving during the summer allowed us extra time to get settled and enjoy it! 

Moving was overwhelming, to say the least.  And somewhat emotional to leave the home where Todd and I were engaged, started our life together, and brought two babies home to.  So far, Cade and Luke have taken the big move in stride (although neither are sleeping well - almost a throw-back to newborn nights - yeah, it's that bad and we're exhausted), so I'm sure they are dealing with a little stress in their own way. 

We are super happy with the move we couldn't be more excited to begin this new chapter in our lives.
