I swear I'm addicted to reading people's blogs, and I get bummed when they don't post for awhile!! Yesterday I thought I wonder if anyone feels that way about mine, I'm sure one or two of you would like to know what we're up to just as much as I love to read about your up to!! So I'm going to try much harder to blog more frequently!! I need to post some pics about Christmas and Liv's birthday, but I thought right now I would just kinda catch everyone up on what's going on with the Schochs!!!

-Jack made it to the district spelling bee, and made it to 4th place. This was a big upset for us, he knew the word, but misspoke a letter and then spelled the word right. It still doesn't count so he was out :( He knew ever word that was given, but I think his nerves got the best of him. The good news is that he has a few more years to win it!!

-We drove to MI after Christmas for a week, we had a great time visiting friends and family!! It was a busy week running around everywhere so the kids could visit friends and we could spend time with our family. We were very ready to come home on Saturday though!! It was a cold gray week, and although my kids thought they missed the snow, they didn't want to go out and play in it!! The night we got home Olivia hopped on her pogo stick, Jack on his rip stick and Harrison on his scooter :) Olivia walked in the door and kissed the floor!!

-I have finally completely settled in here, by this I don't mean that the house is 100% put together (I still have some painting and decorating to do). I mean that I know I made the right decision by moving here, and I am happy that I get to call this place home. I love that I wake up to the sun every morning, that is one thing we noticed while we were in MI, (there was no sun) it stayed dark much later in the morning than it does here. I love that there is so much to do, so many places to take the kids, that they get play outside everyday, that I live 2 min's from school, and I LOVE the people here everyone is just so nice!! It's nice to finally be able to say that this was a good move!!

-I've decided that it's time to go to Disney!! With the large house payment gone, we can finally start to save some money for a trip, I am so excited!! We haven't gone since Harrsion was like 6 months old!! I'm hoping to be able to go in the spring, but if that doesn't work out then we'll defiantly go in the fall!!

-I've also decided that I need to start learning more about photography and hopefully start a small business here. I love to take pictures and I'm looking forward to learning more about it and hopefully making a little extra money doing it!!

Life seems boring right now, after the craziness of deciding to move and moving...and I'm loving it!! (I'm planning on posting some pictures when I put Max down for a nap today!!)

  1. I like it when you update your blog, Jessy! I know what you mean, I get so caught up in reading other people's blog's, I neglect mine. It's more interesting reading than writing!
