So a month back when JD asked me what I wanted for my birthday I told him I wanted a house. We had sold our house, were living with my parents and we didn't really know where life was going to take us. Well I was beyond spoiled on my birthday, I woke up for the first time in our new home and JD got me skiis and a rug for our bedroom :) He let me take a nap in the morning and while I was asleep the boys and JD hid JuJu hearts & my favorite cereal all over the house with cute notes on them.
I love looking out the windows everywhere we look it is so pretty and it is only going to get prettier :) We are so lucky to live where we do. The people here are so nice, and friendly. Karra and the girls have introduced us to all their friends and even Michael has come over and taken the boys for a snowmobile ride. He told the boys he went as fast as a cheetah does... 70mph. We have had meals broughten over, milk and cookies dropped off and people have offered to put in window wells for us. (Last spring the basement funded) Going to the grocery store has turned into something I enjoy doing instead of something I hate. Everyone is so nice and happy. I have never had so many conversations with complete strangers at the grocery store in my life. The school has been wonderful and the boys have already made friends. They come home happy and I love watching them get off the bus and then run down our long muddy and icy driveway.
Don't get me wrong not everything is perfect. We are more than cozy in our little home and I am living through another basement being finished which is the pits. We miss our friends, I miss my sisters & parents, (it really was a lot of fun living with my parents for the two months that we did) and I miss having a organized house. But the transition has been better than expected :) Happy birthday to me I hope this year does NOT have so many changes in store :)
