 Things have been very HECTIC since we moved.  Snow, rain, and mud, mud MUD have made moving in December even more challenging.  A couple of the kids caught a virus, so that slowed us down too.  We still have plenty more to do, going back and forth between houses (we will own two, it needs some work before going back on the market).  We are downsizing after thirteen years and eight kids (as well as 17 years of homeschooling).  This presents many challenges, especially in the book area.  The new house doesn't have built in bookcases.  I know homeschool moms can relate to this.  So many decisions, sorting through which books to keep, save for grandchildren, donate to thrift stores, save to sell, and finally, after going through several thousand, throw into a bonfire!  I am sort of regretting that year I frequented the Bargain Barn (books 20 cents apiece)!  Then, there are the old school papers, workbooks, pictures! memories for me!  I wish I was not so sentimental. It is hard to throw things away.  I know I can't keep everything!  This is going to be a longggggg process.

I hope to have pictures once we are settled.

When you're the best of friends

Having so much fun together
You're not even aware you're such a funny pair

You're the best of friends
