Where to begin...

Wow! A lot has changed since the last time I had a chance to actually sit down for 5 minutes and post...not that I should be posting now, but that's ok! =)

Well, we bought a house! We close May 7 and will hopefully be moving in that weekend! On May 8 we do our cake AND food tastings so we'll be driving all over Houston to get everything done...busy, busy!

This Friday is our work Christmas (I know...in April!) party. I can't believe it's almost Summer! The kids def know it's almost summer and have started forgetting all the rules already! This week we're going to the zoo for our field trip while 3-5 take the TAKS test...too bad we can't take 2 field trips and be gone both days for them! Tuesday will be a VERY quiet day in my room since my walls connect with a 3rd grade classroom. Ugh!!

Some of our friends (and my future bro and sis in law!) threw us an amazing Couples Shower! Although I just realized we didn't play the game..haha! What happened Elissa??? I, unfortunately, started to feel super sick and we went home early. Of course in pure Tanner fashion he was asleep on the couch within an hour of getting home. We had tons of fun and got tons of great things to put in our new house (yay!) and got to see a lot of people we haven't seen in a really long time. I felt really rude not being social with everyone, but oh well...I didn't feel good.

Well, my weight has pretty much stayed the same the last 3 weeks...I've lost 2lbs...but I fit into some shorts I haven't been able to wear in almost 2 years and never had the heart to get rid of "just in case."

Tanner and I are trying to get all our ducks in a row and prioritize what we need/want first when we move in. Thankfully we're in agreement on everything so we haven't had to have a stupid fight about whether we need a TV or a couch more (ha!). He's excited he gets to play golf today and I'm sad I'm stuck in the house! I have the air off and the windows open and I'm about to go outside to write thank you notes and enjoy this amazing day!

Hopefully I'll get better about finding a few minutes a day to sit back and write more as we go through all these changes in our life. As Jill puts it, we're doing all of our life changes in one year..some within 2 months of the other (Close May 7, get married July 10!)...the next step is to get a dog (October...after Heidi has her puppies..yay for my best friend having a choc lab that they got for breeding!!) and have a baby!
