It is official!

And we are excited about it!

The plans have been put into place.

Brian and I are planning on moving to Kansas City!

Our good friends Erin and Timmy live there.

Brian put in his two weeks today at his job and is leaving for KC soon after.

Once he gets a job, Potter and I will follow.

We are excited and nervous and would appreciate any prayers.

When else in our lives would we be able to make a decision like this?

We are ready for a change and this just feels right. 

We aren't sure how long we will stay there.

We will miss you and would love to have visitors.

Kansas City is a cool place to visit/move to.

Plus it is a little warmer and sunnier.

And has less than half the unemployment rate than MI.

YAY!

Cheers to change and jumping in with both feet.

Big Plans!

Well, we have some big plans in the work.
They could be happening as soon as two weeks from Friday.
I am nervous and my stomach hurts thinking about it all.
It is very hard to know what to do.

The questions are:
To move or not to move? When to move or not move? Where to move or not move?

Our lease is up in May!
What do we do?!
We think we have made a decision and I will post about it and stop being so wishy washy by Friday!

Pray for us? Yikes!

Sorry blog. I am not so good at updating you. Here are some updates on my life:

1. Brian is starting a video production company part time. I will let you know when the website is up and running. We are super excited for and have high hopes for Brian to start doing it full time.

2. There was a mouse in our house. ICK!!!!! Brian caught it with the top of a blank cd holder thing and a piece of cardboard and walked it three blocks down. We hope there aren't anymore. Brian throught it was cute and name it Mr. Squeaky. I thought it was gross and wouldn't talk to it.

3. I am writing a book. Brian's says it is good so far. I will let you know.

4. Still have the house bug, the plan is 7 monthes and counting.

5. Potter ran away two weeks ago for around an hour at midnight. I walked around the neighborhood freaking out until I heard her collar and she ran back to me. The little sneak.

6. Also, I am doing super great at my new job. I like it but I hate the hours. They are miserable.

7. Brian's new job is good and he likes to work in Detroit.

8. I have started sewing again. I got an awesome new sewing machine for christmas/birthdays from my dad. I will post pictures later. I am sewing a purse, two skirts and placemats.

9. Spring is almost here!!!

10. I could use a tropical vacation.

Happy Day After Valentines Day!!

So, I am going to start this post by showing you how much of a dork I am.

What is this book in you hand? You might ask...

It is my house book!! A slight form of my well loved happy book.

In it I am pre-decorating my (our...) house.

With color schemes...

And Ideas...
I have a feeling you are shaking your head at me.
No, I have not gone crazy and no I haven't gone as far as fabric swatches... yet.
But that is a great idea, and the book is so much fun.
Feel free to copy me.

On to Valentines day. It was pretty awesome.
I made chocolate covered strawberries and it was super relaxing.
If only it hadn't snowed.

Happy Valentines Day from us!!!
(Can you believe this is our 5th Valentines day together?)

And we still like eachother? HA!

Off to take my final certification test, wish me luck.

We are at the brink of good news, I will post tomorrow when we know for sure. It is job related, just to clue you in.

I have been having horrible, horrible headaches.

The kind that make me want to lie in the dark, blanket over my head.

It hurts from the tip of my teeth to the base of my neck.

It is not stress related, but it could be sleep related,

b/c I have been not sleeping again.

I should probably go to the doctor.

Isn't it funny, I am more afraid of doctors, than headaches.

I hope, "it's not a tumor."

Time to dim the lights and take some tests on credit.

But first I will leave you with an adorable picture of Potter and Brian, it seems my blog is turning into a photo album for Potter.

Goodnight!

Well, things are going good. I am currently whitening my teeth, drinking raspberry lemonade crystal light and avoiding studying for my credit counseling certification tests.

I think I will like my new position.
I definitely like my trainers and the fact that I can wear jeans and hoodies.

I don't really have much to say but I wanted to say hi and that I am happy and avoiding my studies.
Wish me luck on my tests tomorrow.

Happy Half Birthday To Me!...

On this, the day of my half birthday, I am happy.

And, I like my job.

Happy Half Birthday to me!

I am ending with this picture of Potter, she sits in the weirdest positions. I have a better picture but she is showing off her goods too much. We are going to have to have a lesson on modesty.

I am going to go eat some cheese now! Pepperjack!
