Well, it looks like we'll finally get to move to the permanent house in about 18 days (March 18). I'm just a little excited. Not looking forward to going through all the "stuff", but I am a little giddy over getting our printer, crockpot, and stroller back. I'm also excited about purging out all the stuff we haven't used forever and no longer need. We should be hosting a huge yardsale around the end of April, if you'd like to come buy our treasures (i.e. junk)!

For now, we'll continue renting off of some friends of ours. We've been staying in a 3 bedroom/ 2 bath house with a living room and den. It's been a good setup as they had some furniture and cooking utensils in the house already. Shane's been walking to work, and the house is also close to the church. I think I've filled up the gas tank on the van once in the last month :-) The price of gas for the house is a different story. The kids have taken over the living room with toys (no furniture, just toys and a rug), but for some reason every time I look down, they are running around my legs. I sometimes feel like a small planet with two very loud moons.

The largest toy in the living room is a pop-up tent that Mamaw and Papaw bought the kids for Christmas. It's a pink princess tent, but it has come to be called "House of Pain". It seems that every time the kids get in there together, someone is getting bludgeoned or getting their hair pulled out.
