Moving Day is getting closer

After 10 1/2 years of living at our current home we are moving.  So much has happened in the past decade.  Rich and I have grown stronger in our faith, we have had some wonderful and memorable vacations, we have spent countless hours changing things at the house - gardens, flooring, trim work just to name a few, added 3 beautiful girls and now we are closing the chapter at this home and starting a new chapter.  So this next month as we pack up we will be reflecting on all the wonderful memories we will take with us and journey forward to our new home.  When we bought this house Rich had only been at his job for a little over a year and I was working full time.  Rich is still at the same job and 9 1/2 years ago I took a  'promotion' to mommy and love it!!! 

8 Months!!!

Maya has been home for almost 8 months.   Amazing!!!  I can't believe it has already been 8 months.  In just a few weeks Maya will be 3 and unlike last year when we had the party here in her honor while anxiously awaiting to go and get her - this year we get to celebrate with her!!!  She is such a treaure!!  We all love her dearly.   I love how her whole face smiles when she smiles.
