Learning to Like Limbo

Check out the big ol' semi trailer that was in our driveway for two weeks!

So we are now in the "in between" phase of this transition...I refer to it as limbo. At first, it felt odd living out of a suitcase in someone else's house (even if it is the house of some of our dearest family). It was stressful trying to figure out where we had packed the essentials of life and having the kids racing around and waking each other up (they are now sharing a room). But now that the stress of packing up, moving out, and closing on our house is OVER...I can finally breathe.

Paige is being entertained by her Aunt Claire and Kaia in Jax this week...and let me tell you my sister is pulling out all of her mad camp counselor skills this week! (see evidence in pictures below)

Tyler is on the move from 7am-7pm, but once he goes down, he is out for the count...all evening...which means some much needed down time for me...and a blog post for you! ;)

So things are looking up...and I am finally getting excited about this move, instead of stressing all the details of the transition.

Chris left to drive across the country at 4am this morning with Scot "Roadtrip Warrior" Lake and Ripley. Their last update was that they were driving alongside the St. Louis Arch...cool, huh?! If you are a praying person, would you please say a prayer for safe travels?

How cute is our dog?!

They went to the park

They built forts

They bowled

They painted shirts and wore them on a water taxi in Jacksonville

They made butterflies


They played in fountains

They went to the beach

And they danced!
