Pinch me, cause I must be dreaming!!

Seriously, I feel like I'm living in some kind of dream land down here!! It's changed us so much. We live on this amazing street where everyone goes out and plays with the kids, there's always at least a good 20 kids out playing. We have dinner's, go out to lunch, have rock band night's, work out with and go to Church with quite few of the people on the street. It's weird. When Harrison fell of his bike down the road, my friend took him in her house and cleaned his knees and bandaged them. If Max is sleeping when Tim's away another neighbor will come down here and sit with him while I'm away so I don't have to wake him. I really don't know how to describe it, but it feels like a dream most of the time. I guess this is why people love neighborhoods so much, and we just got lucky enough to land on a amazing street of people!!

I know when I first moved here I had a hard time if I did the right thing, and I know I posted many doubts on here about it. Please know that we're 100% happy down here, I don't have a ounce of regret!!! The kids are doing amazing in school, and Jack has finally found a school that can keep up with him and challenge him!! I no longer miss Jackson, I do miss seeing some of my friend's of course, but I'm happy to read their blogs or talk to them on the phone, and visit when I'm in Jackson :)

Things are blooming, it's so beautiful there are flowers everywhere, even driving down the highway here is a sight to be seen!! Jack and Harrison are in baseball and really having a great time!! Olivia is in piano, and I'm sad to say that she's not so sure she loves it, she'd rather just be home playing with her friends. We'll see how that goes! It's staying right around the 80's down here and no joke the sun shines every day!! I no longer feel like "it's a nice day we must be outside"!! I've been a slacker but need to get back in the rhythm of working out and walking, hopefully when Tim comes home today that will be a little easier!! I really need to loose those 15-20 pounds so I can wear all my shorts this summer!!!

We head to Disney one month from today, I'm sooo excited I can't stand it!! I guess we're not telling our kids, we're just going to drive them there :) Tim loves to do this, just put them in the car and surprise them!! We have six fun filled days there, and thinking about maybe hanging out for another day in Orlando, we'll see how tired we are!!

Anyways I'm not quite sure what I'm posting about, maybe just a little update, and to let everyone know we're good!! We're going to try to come up to MI for a week this summer to visit, the only thing is Tim is not going to have much vacation time left, so he has to see if he can work out of a office there for the week. I'm thinking about the end of July when it's so hot down here we don't know what to do with ourselves!! :)

  1. Sounds like you picked a great neighborhood to move to. I discovered that I still had those texts messages from when you first moved. I laughed reading them knowing how happy you are now. Im happy for you!!!
