Holy Cow...I'm so Bad!

Wow, I'm so bad. I didn't realize just how long it has been since I updated. Things have just been so hectic. All these years I've always said "when Will graduates then..." well, here we are less than 30 days before he does graduate. We have finally made the life changing decision to accept the job offer in Yuma Arizona. All of us are looking forward to the warmer weather, and the ability to be outdoors most all the time of the year. We got the kids new sandals, and some pool toys (diving rings and squirters) for Easter, and they are way excited.

I guess I should recap the last little while...hmmmm lets see:

Sabrina got baptized and it was wonderful. She looked so pretty, and so grown up. My parents came to visit too and the kids absolutely LOVED having them here. They really missed my parents. I have too, but I could tell the kids, especially Nessie missed them the most. Nessie is a little like my mom. Very prim and proper, and always needing to look so pretty. The more I look at Vanessa the more I see my mom. Its ok though, I love my mom to death, and couldn't think of a better roll model for her.

We are so looking forward to Yuma. I can get the kids into extra activities that require exercise, and a pool and so many other things to look forward to. Of course I got permission to paint the walls if we wanted to, and to put up "wallies" the wall stickers and quotes. So it will look much better. Right now its just the guy who owns it, and four of his friends living in the house. SO it is very "mannish"

Will is out of the hospital and doing well. We are just trying to keep his Iron levels up, and fill him full of blood till his ulcers heal up. Hopefully that will be soon. Till then he is doing the "vampire lounge".

The dogs are wanting to stay outside for longer periods of time now to enjoy the weather as well, instead of going outside to do their duty super quick, and race back inside. They are really enjoying the weather, and so are we...even though it is only 70 degrees. The kids love playing outside, and with the daylight savings time they have a lot more playtime outside. The fresh air is great.

I have also been packing boxes a little at a time, and its so much easier than waiting till the last min. Hopefully everything will be ready by the 24th, and we can leave Omaha by 9am on the 26th of May like we have planned. Yikes that's coming sooner than I think. There is still so much to do.

Well I hope all of you are doing well. I'm sorry its been so long since an update, but Ive just been really busy. We love you all and miss you.
I will try to keep better about writing. I need to be better about letting all of you know how we are doing. Please know that we love you all and miss you all.
