Our view of Cedar Creek Lake across the street....
Construction Already....Whew. We're in. We've left the Shack, no tears there. We made the best decision ever and hired movers to move us (Yes! Worth it, definitely!) And three days of utter, plain chaos have finally settled down a bit.....enough for me to sit and blog, I guess.
I'm enjoying our new home, I really am. I forgot about how much I love to cook on gas stoves, and I love having a driveway again! (It's the small things...; ) I love looking at the lake during the day. I love being able to walk out my front door and go for a long walk with the girls.....I love having a little bit more room, but not too much. I do love small homes. I love the fact that we're already doing construction on this home, turning a once large sunroom into a den & 3rd bedroom. There's something appealing about taking an older home and making it shine again. But I don't love moving. In fact, if I have to chain myself to this house....I'm not moving again for a long, long, long, long time. Boog and the girls can go...I'll stay.
With all this moving hoopla, one could forget there's Christmas right around the corner. I did my first and final bit of shopping the other day......it amazed me to see the deer in the headlights look of all the shoppers, trying to grab the last gift or two. I can't tell you how many times I overheard, "But my kids don't really need anything..." while shopping. They're right. Mine don't either.

But I like the memories.

Looks like a beautiful homesite. Glad you are all moved. Hope you can get that tree up. Merry Christmas!!
Oh, Flo! I understand. I have moved SO much. When we moved into this house last year, I swore I was done. I even gave away all of my boxes! And now it looks like we are moving again!
So glad you are moved....and almost settled! ; ) Wishing the Ferrell family a very Merry Christmas too!!
