SPRING ALREADY?!




I'm certainly not complaining, but I have to admit how surprised we are that it's 80 degrees outside and it isn't even mid March! Bart and I went out fishing in SC last Saturday, thinking this was a fluke thing and we needed to take advantage of a beautiful day together. So he fished and I read New Moon... out loud to him, and Major went for a swim or two in between his naps in the sun. It was warm, and we were happy, and then the sun went down and we both realized we were BURNED!!





It's been a few years since we've been in that kind of sun so naturally we weren't as prepared as we should have been. We will not be making that mistake again! Especially since it looks like the spring is here to stay and we will be making more trips out to the lake together!


The Popcorn is Popping on the trees and it makes it seem so surreal! We love it, but we are also very glad we will be moving just in time to miss the extreme humid heat!


We are so super excited to be moving to Washington just when the weather will be getting nice there! The problem about moving is... moving! I love getting things set up and put away and everything feels new and you get to start all over again... that's my favorite part. But having to find a company, pack your things, and hope your furniture doesn't get destroyed in the mean time is so stressful. Some of you may be wondering why we are moving ourselves since we're in the military and they should be moving for us. Well, it's a long explanation I don't care to blog, but $ is the answer to most things if that can make any sense. Hopefully it will be worth it in the long run, Bart assures me it will!

I understand the DITY move, we did that on our first move and did make some money. Hope all of your hard work pays off, and I totally think the same thing about unpacking and reorganizing and setting up house...I love it! Glad all is well. With love, Rebecca
