Settled?!?!?

Not quite, but we are getting there!

The move this weekend went about as well as moves go! Everything made it out of the old apartment and into the new apartment, with the exception of one candle that my brother-in-law Wesley dropped and broke. That was NO biggie, due to the fact that the candle was from the Dollar Tree! :)

We were SO THANKFUL for the help that was able to come. My Dad and stepmom, Clints Mom and Dad, both of Clint's brothers and his brother's friend from college, Judson, were all there to help. We were extremely appreciative for all they did.

We took a break about 12:30 for lunch at Sonny's BBQ. It was great. This was the first time since our wedding that my Dad and Cindy and Clint's parents were together. It went really well and everyone was really comfortable...UNTIL... I thought my MIL was going to come accross the table and beat up my dad...not really. BUT...you must know...that EVERYTIME we go out to eat with my in-laws, they pay. And..don't you even dare try to reach for your wallet. Well, they met their match. My dad caught the waitress first and told her to bring him the entire bill. My MIL heard a little of the conversation, they argued in fun for a moment and all was well. I loved it!

We LOVE LOVE LOVE our new place. It has SO much more room and has a ton of little perks that make us love it even more. Our only complaint thus far is the fact that the living room is quite a bit smaller that what we had before. This is due to the fireplace, which we like. We ended up having to put our loveseat in the office. It makes it a quite nice little room of sports/computer/reading, so its all good. This left us with only a couch to sit on in the living room. SO...we bought a recliner last night. It is SO comfy! It is olive green and quite nice. So much for the blackberry plans with my birthday money...it's all good though...Christmas is coming!

School is in FULL FORCE! Grandparents day on Thursday and Homecoming (madness) week is next week. YIKES! I am battling a cold, which is never fun, but especially when coralling 60ish 6th graders around all day. I hate to say this, but I am counting the days until the weekend so I can get some rest and get that "settled" feeling.

Happy birthday Holly! Love ya!

Until next time,
Sam
