Texas House




These are the updates on our house as of last week.  The cabinets are supposed to be in by the end of this week and I am so excited to see an update!  The last picture is the view of the lake from the front of our property!  It really is beautiful and luckly that lot should stay empty for a while!

Update



I am so completely hopelessly behind!!!!
Here are some updates of what our kiddos have been up to.
Layla is now 9 months.  Where has the time gone!  She is trying to scoot all over the floor.  She can wave, say Dada, and will occasionally say mama but only when she is crying. 
Pierce turned 4 in March.  He is such a handsome kid and full of energy.  He can be sweet as pie one minute and such a typical boy (you know laughing at farts and fun stuff like that) the next.
Allee is 7 and just finished first grade.  She is a great helper and is so fun to shop with.  She loves to play with friends and is becoming such a little tween!

The biggest news in our life right now is that we are moving!  Derek is getting transferred to Stephenville, Texas.
We went house hunting over Memorial Day week and found this awesome house that we fell in love with.  It is perfect, 4 bedrooms and a 3 car garage.  The only downside, there are no basements in Texas.  I have some adjusting to do!!
The house is coming along great and should be finished by the middle of July.  That means by the end of July we will be making the move.  It is very bitter sweet for us.  It is a great opportunity for Derek, but we have made such wonderful friends here who have really become our extended family.  It will be do difficult to leave, but we know that this must be where the Lord wants us at this time.
So Texas here we come.
My goal is to get better caught up and hopefully there will be some new house pics to share soon.  So far the inside is sheet rocked and they just put the rock on the fireplace!  It is so exciting and so odd to be building a house when you can't check up on it!
