The time has come for us to say goodbye to our house and move onto our land. We finally got a trailer. Not exactly what we wanted but will suit us just fine until the time to build. It's kind of a good thing cause if we got to comfortable we would most likely just stay put but I have plans for my Victorian style home and I really want it one day.
I am happy to say that they will be moving it onto our land Sunday or Monday depending on the weather. They are coming to lay the dirt and rock for our drive way next week as well. Sewer and water will follow right after so in about a week we will be there and all set up.
I am really having to down size with everything. Kaylee's bedroom set is having to go into storage and the girls are sharing a room and using DJ's bunk beds. He doesn't mind a bit because frankly he never slept a night in them. Maybe a nap or two. He loves sleeping with us and we LOVE him to sleep with us. One day he will not wanna do that.
I got rid of A LOT of kitchen stuff. Our extra gas stove, the sofa sleeper, Dad's chair is going to his house. We are going to buy a new living room set that will fit that space but not be over crowding. The TV for the kids games will go in the girls room thank GOD! I am really gonna miss having two living rooms with tons of space. I figured if I didn't put it in there I would go crazy with the noise. My computer is going in my room because there is just no room for lots of stuff in the small livingroom or kitchen. LESS IS MORE I always say and if its cluttered I will stay in a bad mood.
Anywho....must run. We are headed to Atlanta with the church for Bible quizing at 2:30 am! Emilee has practiced so much and I know she will do her very best!! PRAY FOR US
Till next time~VAL

2012 already?
So it is 2012 already! Where in the world has time gone? I have been loving the blogging world lately due to all the Christmas posts! I just love to look at all the decorations, and read about all of the traditions everyone does.
Now for my BIG news! We are moving onto our land!!!! Thats right, you read it right! MOVING!!! I am so excited about this move. It will be our last. In my recent posts I had talked about us buying land in Pine, La. It has been almost a year (Feb will be 1 year). We thought we would be out there further in the year but due to some housing issues it has been moved up and I mean QUICK! Our land lord is having so housing issues where he is at and needs his house back February 1st. It first come as a shock to me and David and we where not that happy about it. But GOD has blessed us so much. We got our land cleared. We are waiting on someone to knock a few trees down in the front so we can finish making our long drive way. I have to turn in the paper work for our permits tomorrow and when that is down we will put down our water well and septic tank. I am not looking forward to that due to how much it costs but we have to have it I guess! LOL I am very excited about mail box shopping. I just can't wait to put it up. I plan on sending out snail mail cards with our new address. I also order a cute new stamp with our address on it! Seriously cute I tell you!!!!! I would post a picture of it but I don't want any stalkers, HAHA! We are having to put down some gravel for our long drive/road and that is gonna be a little pricey too but well worth it they say. So I am looking forward to being able to drive back there in my van and not worry about sticks, or being to wet etc. Its all really just running together and I/We are so excited like I said before. My kids espically. They have found spots for club houses. I can't wait to see what they make. OR shall I say how they make em.
We are now waiting on word on a trailer. We are wanting to go with an older used one. Something we can buy out right or buy and pay on for about a year. We really want to start sinking all of our extra money into our land to get it paid off. We really want to build in the next few years. We will see how all that goes.
Well I have tons more to blog about but I guess that will be tomorrow. The kids start back school in the morning so that means I have to get up before the chickens....LOL
