The Big Move

So it's be a little while since I've posted. The kids have been visiting with grandparents every other week or so. Driving to W TN and back, we've had family visit us in the last month. 


  This last week we were informed that Adam's company is relocating back to East TN. Monday will be our last and final day in Missouri for ,well ...as far as we can see  forever. We were discussing over lunch how weird it feels to know we may very well never need to come this way again. People we've meet places we've gone already some how seem in our past. Again of course we turned to how odd its going to feel going back to Oak Ridge again, seeing all our old fav. places & people. 


   We haven't found a house yet. Definitely it's going to be a challenge. We're not sure what area we will be in yet. I really can't wait for the fall in Rocky Top , it's going to be beautiful. I'm however very nervous about kamrons school transferral. We are totally unprepared for school this year and I am afraid to order anything because I can't yet tell them where to send it?! Oh bother. 
 I'm almost certain this move is going to be for the best. It's very hard to believe we've been here for a year. Remembering when we first moved in , it was like heaven, IDK why I say that, but it was. Its going to be a bitter sweet move to say the least. 
   
   I can't wait to see my good friends back in K-ville  & Wartburg. ;-)
I can't wait to start school, because I learned last week NOTHING is transferable and I will have to take the TABE & redo online orientation :(((
Kinda sad about that , but I'm still going to finish because I've got bigger fish to fry. 


    Still can't believe were leaving on Monday forever, not even having a house yet. I told Adam my next tat was going to be a wagon wheel because we appear to be nomadic. 


    Rather than me ramble on Im going to bed.....


Peace 


I'll be updating with potential houses soon! 
stay tuned!

    The garden is coming along nicely. Karter & I spent part of the day weeding. The other half we rent for  a car ride in the country and napping of course. 
We miss our brothers and sister very much. 


   I've started school on Mon. & Wed. nights. So far it's been good. Really ready to put this part of my education behind me. I'm eager to learn all I can, as fast as I can. Maybe I will do online classes , depends. If all goes as planned , I will graduate in June of next year. 


   Adam & I celebrated 5 yrs together this weekend. Feels nice , and were looking forward to many more. It's so hard not to brag on our children, I don't want to be one of those parents...and we all know them, but we're proud parents. Just seeing the wonder in a kids eyes is so amazing, like they're little books being written everyday. Aahh parenting. 


   I am relieved to say Karter is getting around quite well  now at 7 months old. He's now eating veggies, fruits, cereal & juice. He can set up for a whole 10 sec. alone. I finally feel comfortable letting Adam watch him while I'm in school. Really is a relief. 


   Wishing everyone a peaceful up coming week.

4th weekend

  The weekend is upon us once again. Adam's off work (hooray). I'm going to do my best to soak up the relaxation before starting school on Monday. Theres a parade first thing in the AM, (after breakfast of course). 


  I awoke at 5am this morning and had to force myself to go back to sleep before it was time to wake up for real. Little Karter is the man when it comes to sleeping through the night, but come 9am its time to wake & shake.


  I've gotten a lot of reading done in the last few weeks , really enjoying that. Gotta admit I'd much rather be reading than doing much else. knowledge  will set me free. I  have a hard time expressing myself , therefor some would categorize me as an idiot. However I have been told by many a professional that I had something great to offer,so maybe its just takes one to know one. The best things are yet to come. 


  Besides mind , I want to work on body strength , because what good is one without the other? Adam has shown an interest in tennis, I myself love the idea of all 6 of us on the court. As far as walking goes we need to get with it and make a every other day plan ...or something of that nature. Seriously can't wait until we start feeling and of course looking better!


  I've asked Adam to arm me with boxes. I'm ready to get the heck out of here.I can't wait to get back to East TN , I miss my friends : ( 
  Rentals are so hard to find online for that area. I have to say , going back is going to be a little weird I can tell, it's been a year. It's going to be like stepping back, but in a good way. 


 Heading to bed now, hope to get good shots tomorrow! stay tuned ...
