Snow..

I guess it has been a "bad" winter here in Alabama.  Mya has had more snow days since we moved here than we ever did in Colorado!   To date we are at 3 days out of school, I can only remember a few late starts in Colorado in 4+ years.  Keep in mind the "major" snow storms here produce maybe 1 inch of snow, but it shuts the city down!  Even with the threat of a storm they will let the kids our early.  At first I didn't understand what was the problem, but then after a few news reports I get it.  This is a city with a lot of overpasses and bridges and as the snow melts and the water freezes it turns to black ice!  So needless to say the city shuts down and the grocery stores shelves empty of bread, milk and eggs.  I make sure to keep enought milk and eggs on hand so IF I do get stuck home I can just make my own bread!!

Can't take the guilt...

Ever since my sister updated her blog I have have been riddled with guilt to do the same, so here I go!

Many things have changed since the last post April 24th, 2009! I don't even know where to start so I will just wrap it all up in a nice little nutshell.

My 3 year old in my last blog is now 4 going on 5, my then 9 year old is now 10. My darling husband got a new job that put an end to his weekly travel and over a period of a week we put our house in Colorado on the market, got a contract in two days! Hubby and I made a quick trip to Alabama to house hunt (A big thanks to Toree for flying out to stay with the girls in Colorado!!) looked at 26 houses in one day and found the kitchen of my dreams the next day, put a contract on it and the next day flew back to Colorado! On August 14th we closed on the old house and with tears in my eyes bid adieu to Colorado Springs and all of our friends of the last 4.5 years. We took 3 days to drive to Huntsville stopping to see and do things along the way. Lived in a hotel for over a week, got both girls in school and learned the lay of the land. We closed on our new house on the 25th of August!

So I use the about paragraph as my excuse as to why I have not blogged. Have I had time? Of course I have, but I didn't. I am human.

We are settled into our new house and are enjoying the extra elbow room and we love the area!
