A Little Like Home...

We are officially moved into our new house!! While we still have some unpacking to do, it's beginning to feel like our home. Normally when we move there are not many options as to where stuff should go, but this house is quite the opposite, there is enough room that I am having a hard time deciding where stuff should go. I felt like I had every inch of wall space covered I could in our old home, and this house's walls seem quite bare. We hope you are all doing well, and we can't wait for you to come visit!

I've been tagged...

Just in case you were wondering...

Joys:
1.) Brooks and Dunn said it best " proud of the house we built, stronger than sticks, stones or steel" it hasn't always come wrapped up nice with pretty pink bows, but we've accomplished a lot in 2 1/2 years.
2.) everything "crafty"
3.) going to the beach with the family

Fears:
1.) I almost always hold the hand rail when on stairs, because I often dream that I fall down the stairs and knock out my teeth... I might have issues
2.) "I hope you have 10 children just like you" which followed "what goes around comes around" ... THANKS MOMMY!!
3.) The snakes that live around our office... our office in Fountain Hills is super nice, but the suites are all individual buildings surrounded by desert landscape and SNAKES. Although not far, we do have to go to another building to use the restroom and that is where the snakes love to hang out too (like their own little breakroom)... who do you call when you are afraid to come out of the bathroom because of a snake?

Goals:
1.) getting the new house unpacked in less than 1 week!!
2.) using my Saturdays to better prepare for the new week (cutting veggies and packing lunches)
3.) save a little play money for some time away before we start trying to have a baby again!!

Obsessions:
1.) if it can be organized by an excel spreadsheet, it is at my house and at work
2.) I'm paranoid about running out of laundry soap, so we usually have a years supply or more...
3.) staples in the carpet... I try to be extra careful around the office when throwing away staples, some, however, are not and when I am barefoot my feet are drawn to them like magnets... some may say that keeping my shoes on at work would resolve this issue, but I like to be barefoot when no clients are in the office.

Random Facts:
1.) I would give just about anything to have a "Harry Potter Wand"!
2.) In high school I was a nationally ranked bowler & # 2 in the state of Idaho (I only bowl via Wii these days)
3.) I got a 34 out of 36 on my ACTs

Tag you're it... Shalene, April & Noelle P.S. It's snowing in Idaho a ton right now...
