We are finally somewhat moved into our house. We arrived here two weeks ago this coming Tuesday. We unloaded our stuff and left for the beach with my family that Saturday, where we spent a very relaxing week at Myrtle Beach and arrived home again yesterday. By the way, ONE house, TWELVE children, and ELEVEN adults--that's some loud crazy sort of fun!
Goodness gracious, there is so much to blog about. To keep it simple, here are a few tid-bits about our new life "Back Home, Where Our Story Began."
*We live next door to my older sister, Dayna and family. The children LOVE their cousins being next door.
*We live approximately 3 minutes from my parents and 2 minutes from my sister Dawn, and about 6 minutes from my sister Dolly.
*We DO NOT have internet access, TV, or home phone at our house yet--which is somewhat nice.
*The children are OBSESSED with the laundry shoot they have in their bathroom.
*Speaking of houses, our home in FL is still on the market so we are renting a home here. We have the BEST landlords! My parents!!!!!
*Basically we are just loving life. Our life has drastically, BIG time, ABSOLUTELY slowed down.
*It was SO nice having Danny home with me this morning getting the children ready for church... actually going to church with Danny, and sitting in church with him (although we were both thinking of and praying for the staff at SBC and thinking of all our friends back home---HOME?? Did I call North Port home?????)
And lastly, here are a few pictures from our week at the beach. I posted more on Facebook so those who have seen them already, bear with me. OH OH OH!!! And, guess what? I won the family talent show! We have this inside family joke and I did this crazy interpretive dance about it. That was some funny stuff!

We ate VERY well all week!
The kids table---outside!
Maddie and her cousin Grayson
Awwwww!
She asked me to do this to her!
He asked for this too...
...it was his idea!
Guess who is crawling!!!!!
Okay, that's all folks...until I get back to my parents home for DSL access. See Ya!
