Anyone want to help us move in?

Things are coming to an end with the house. Now it's just a bunch of little things to get finished before moving in. Yesterday Leven and I were both sick with a stomach virus. He got sick early Wednesday morning and of course gave it to me. I HAD to go home yesterday from work. I was so miserable. We are both feeling better and are ready to start loading our cars up and taking them to the house. This morning I had to meet the furniture lady at my house at 7:30 so they could unload our first load of furniture. I am so excited to have a new bedroom suit. Since I was up so early I decided to grab a load from the lake house and take it to the new house. It's kind of funny b/c a lot of our christmas gifts I never even took out of the box. So there was a gift that Taydem had never seen this morning and she was so excited to play with it. So that kept her busy while I helped unload the furniture and the rest of my car. I'm really excited about moving in and having our little family back together. It's been a crazy year and it will be nice to get back to normal for a change. I know my sister is ready to have her house back. Thanks for letting us stay with you ALL this time!!

Tomorrow we are headed to Dallas for another wedding! This one should be a blast. It will be our last little getaway before school and volleyball starts up again. Leven starts 2-a-days on Monday. I'm sure I will have lots of pictures to post from the wedding. Here are a few more I've taken of the house.

Just our luck

Yes, we needed some rain. I understand that, BUT NOT when we need to pour our driveway. The inside of the house is pretty much finished and all we need to do now is pour the driveway, let it sit for a couple of days, and then start moving stuff in! It's just our luck isn't it? And it's suppose to rain all week long. I took some pictures yesterday of the floors being finished! Today they are putting on all the doorknobs, cabinet and drawer pulls, and finishing our master bath!

So close....

On the road again

Every day we travel 30 minutes to work and 30 minutes back home. I'm so tired of that drive. That is a huge plus when we get into our new home. We will only be 5 minutes away then! But it has been fun riding in the car with Taydem. She keeps me entertained that's for sure. She talks and talks and TALKS constantly. She gets that from her daddy. I took this video yesterday on our ride home. Don't worry, I was careful!

Rain!! Yippee

It's raining it's pouring I wish I was snoring! Taydem kept us up all night last night. She couldn't stop coughing and then the coughing would wake her up and then she would whine and moan until one of us went over to her. I gave her some medicine and then put her in bed with us. She slept under Leven's armpit all night!! Taydem will probably have allergies just like Leven and Trever and they started bothering her this past weekend. Yesterday after work we all went over to the house to clean windows and Dad and Leven messed in the yard. We started sweeping the floors on the inside and all that sawdust must have got to her. Poor thing....

Right now it's raining so all the men that were going to work on the house decided to come tomorrow instead. They will work on the marble in the showers and backsplash in the kitchen. Once the marble is finished, they floors will be put down! I can't believe how close we already are. I ordered some new furniture yesterday so that's just as exciting. We needed new bedroom furniture for our room, new couch and chair for living room, and 2 pieces of furniture to go under our TVs since they will be on the wall. Later, we will buy some barstools and a TV for the gameroom. I also ordered Taydem a new bedspread for her room. We are saying bye bye to her baby furniture and getting into a big girls bed!! My mom is giving Taydem my bedroom furniture as a child! Thanks MOM! It's all coming together and we are extremely blessed for my parents help!

Trever's team lost to the winners of the South zone. Henderson won the first game, we won the second and Henderson won the last. It was kind of bittersweet. They had been playing since April so I think we were all happy for it to end. Leven was really happy. He was stressing me out for him being so stressed!

Have a nice week to all!

State Champs

Trever's team beat out Texarkana last night for the title of State Champs! They are actually the Northern Champs and will have a 2 out or 3 series against the Southern Champs on Saturday. This will determine who will go on to South Carolina for the World Series. Trever has been playing catcher this whole tournament and did a great job, considering how hot it was outside! I will also have to add that Leven has done an outstanding job coaching these boys.

Won again

Trever's team beat Spring Hill last night. They will play tonight for the semi-finals game against the first team they beat, Hughes Springs.
