Busy, busy, busy!

We survived the holiday weekend! Shawn was home on his way back through from Pennsylvania so we decided to have a cookout to spend time with friends before he took off again. It was nice to see everyone. Well, almost everyone. Hopefully next time Bridget will not crash into Mike's truck the morning of and they too will be able to join us. We enjoyed shish-kabobs on the grill, fabulous Italian salad, the kids ate a whole bag of cheese balls (glad I don't have to change those diapers anymore!) and we talked and laughed surrounded by fire and music. It was a great time. Looking forward to another one (complete with s'mores) next weekend!

So much has happened this week and I am glad it is coming to an end. Shawn fired our realtor and hired a new one so I had to meet with her yesterday. Hoping that she can get us some movement at least. Nothing has looked promising with selling in the past 5 weeks. I am trying to enjoy each day in this house that we have left, but I am anxious to live (and sleep) with my husband again! We resumed our house hunt yesterday after taking 5 weeks off and Shawn toured about 5 after work. One of which was my "dream home", however, it got crossed off the list due to lack of yard so that is understandable. He thinks he may have found a winner! My friends think I am CRAZY for trusting my husband to choose our next house without me, but I trust him 100%. That is why I married him! After all, he picked out our current home without me and I LOVE IT, so I am sure our next one will be just as great. Our current home has a great floor plan and a beautiful setting. It was a blank slate when I moved in...very bland and boring but with a little work, it has become our sanctuary. Like Shawn says, "It was just a house, but you made it a home, Kel". So, we plan to repeat the process since it worked so well the first time. He picks the bones, and I make it pretty...we make a great team. :]
