Realization

We're finally in our new house and I LOVE IT!! We're still living out of boxes and the house pretty much looks like a bomb went off, but I'm working on it. By the way, if Charlene, Auggie or Britt know where some of the bathroom boxes might have been put, could ya let me know. I can't find any of the hair stuff, so Andrea and I have been looking GREAT! hahahahahaha
I've managed to get my kitchen unpacked and decorated with the help of Andrea and my friend Sonda. I'll post pictures later. We used chicken wire as a garland to create a background for my farm decorations. Chris was a little sceptical at first. I believe his exact words were, "Alright fine. Give it a try. When it looks like shit I guess we're only out 10 bucks." I LOVE the way it turned out! And I'm happy to report that 1) Andrea and Sonda escaped with only minor cuts and scrapes from the wire and 2)Chris liked it when it was done!
One of my favorite things about the new house is that there aren't any stairs!!! I've been able to tuck my kids in and read books to them every night! I love spending those few moments with them every night!!!!
You know how they say that guys marry their mothers? Well tonight, it hit me that 1) Chris' mom and I have almost identical wedding rings 2) we have the same couches 3) we now have almost the same color of carpet and 4) I have her dining room table. When I pointed that out to Chris tonight he busted up laughing and said, "I wondered how long it would take you to realize that about the carpet and the table." Seriously????? lol Now that I'm thinking about it, we used to have basically the same car too. I had a Grand Am and she had a Malibu (they're the same car just with different trim). Obviously, we both have good taste. lol

I don't remember your hair stuff, maybe it is hiding in one of the "Sex Toy" boxes. (Believe me, I didn't look in any of those). I haven't noticed Auggie wearing anything in his hair, and as for me it takes too much effort to do more than run a brush through my hair, so if you don't find it I'll send over all my hair stuff that I don't use.
