to say i am behind is the understatement of the year

I open my blog and look at the post.  Halloween?!?!  Really, that is really the last time I posted?!?!

Yes. Call me what you want but once again our life becomes a chaotic mess around the holidays.

I miss having only the stress of present buying or what holiday wrapping paper will match the best.  Instead my list includes needing to find a rental home in order not to be homeless.  And, can we finish packing a 5 room home in under 2 weeks.  Or, "Honey, did we leave me any clean underwear?"

Oh the days of holiday worries.  Thankfully this will be the last of the craziness.  We finally can settle knowing where we will be on Christmas and every other holiday for that matter.

Blessed does not even begin to touch how full our hearts are.  We can not get enough!  Making wonderful memories with the cousins, walking around Storybook Island with grandparents or just simply being able to invite family over for dinner creates this wonderful world of contentment.  I am happy.  Like down to your toes over joyed with the decision we made.  The transformation in our home life.  The happiness in Ben's eyes.  The joy in the children's faces.  Every stressful moment has led to this.

Thank you all for the prayers and support.  Without the wonderful women in Texas, the family here in Rapid City and the prayers we received from Boston to Colorado to California our life would have been 10 times the stress level. 

 
 
My New Years Resolution list is a long one.  My goals are completely reachable.  Now, the time and energy of building a house and creating a home where roots can be grounded begins!!! 
 
EEEKK {we are just so so happy}!!!!
