We are moving this Saturday. We found a nice rental house near where we used to go to high school (north valley). It is 700 square feet bigger than our apartment, and $130 less per month! Seriously what is wrong with the Flagstaff housing market??
Devin is down in Phoenix yet again this week working so that we can actually afford to move. I am trying my hardest to get some packing done, while at the same time being the mother hen to my sweetlings and the 2 extra. I am also going out of town next week. It is my Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw's 60th wedding anniversary, and we are throwing them a huge party. The best part is, M&P have no idea that my parents and my sister and I are coming! I cannot wait to surprise them. This is also the first time in 6 months that I will be seeing my sister, Whitney (who rudely moved away 1 month before Mollie was born).
I am working on a movie/ghetto documentary for the anniversary party. I am having so much stress over this, because I want it to be perfect. I am so overwhelmed with taking care of the kids, packing, and getting this movie done in time that my old friend has returned: MY NERVOUS VOICE. This friend of mine takes over my normal voice whenever I am feeling stress. It sounds like a high-pitched, constricted version of my normal voice. Ugh. So embarrassing. At least I haven't gotten a stress cold sore...yet.
Since I've been working on my Maw-Maw and Paw-Paw's movie, I have been looking through a ton of old pictures. I just love the pictures of them as young parents with their children. Seeing all of these pictures has inspired me to take more pictures of myself and my sweet kids. I know someday Sam and Mollie will want to look at them. So here are some we took yesterday (of course they are all dumb self-shots).
