Thank goodness I followed that sign! Obviously there was a better home for us waiting just around the corner…
From the house that almost was that I *thought* I was in love with, to a better home that is so much more perfect for our family. We recently moved after months of searching. it’s cheaper than the other house, zoned for better schools, is in a better location – pretty much just better in every way. I already feel more at home than I have in 18 months and we’re not even unpacked. As a matter of fact, we never did “pack” at least not in the traditional sense, like with boxes and a moving truck…… But, by now I’m sure you’ve realized we aren’t traditional and nothing we do is “normal”. The Move is a whole ‘nother story… But, the point is that even with the entire downstairs still a staging area full of piles of stuff that needs to be organized and put away, no couch (shopping this weekend heyo!), the dining room table still in the garage, etc…it still feels more like home than our last house ever did.
And let me tell you, it feels good to finally be home.

Genesee is now an Eagle and Kaity is now a Patriot. They both like their new schools. Genesee is out of the dreaded 12 mo zoning so she can finish out her 5th grade year and attend her elementary school graduation on a normal schedule and have a full summer before starting middle school. Kaity was apprehensive about starting a new school mid-year but was able to get into advanced art at her new school and even got the P.E. schedule she wanted so she won’t have to run in the heat near the end of the year and will instead be safely indoors in health class for h er last quarter of 8th grade. She was given the choice to stay at her old school until the quarter ended but in the end she chose to start her new school right away and jump in headfirst. She is now pretty excited about the change and is looking forward to all the different extracurricular options at her new school.

Now, to plan the Housewarming party; I can’t wait to show off my 12 person in-ground hot tub in my beautiful backyard!
