Moving Day...

2009-02-28T21:01:00.000-08:00

Okay...so throwing kids away is not an option....but they are great when getting newspaper from the recyling bin to help pack with when moving! Even 4 year olds can be such a BIG help!
Packing and Moving does not go with Strep throat...ugh!

Thanks Joe for all your help....

And Toni, Colby, Payton, Reagan, Andy, Emily.......

Corbin (believe or not he helped me move 75% of every box or bin into the garage!

Dallyn.....you are so good with ALL little kids!.....Hey we needed breaks sometimes! :)

Jason thanks for all you did and DO!

Are you sure we can fit all this?

...okay so we needed an extra trailer....I really did get rid os a lot of stuff!

....And so we turn the page on another chapter in our lives! We were blessed to have found this house when we did and for it's season it kept us safe. Now we are excited as we move forward in life to greater things and new memories! Thanks Mom and Dad to let us stay with you until the new chapter begins! We will enjoy the time and have a blast! Thanks to all my dear friends and family for the support and love as life goes on! ....We love you!

I am filled with gratitude for the amazing friends I have, the perfect children I have and the second chance I have at love... Nothing puts eternity into quite a perspective like looking out arcoss the seemingly endless ocean. If only I can strive to be as diligent and enduring as the waters of the sea, and manage to stay as magnificent with the turn of every tide..... Thanks Jill and Emily for sharing your strength and filling my cup up! I love you two!

"always go forward and never turn back...."

Forever, my friends, FOREVER!

I just wanted to say I had so much fun this past weekend at the Bumgardner Family Reunion....what an amazing group of people they all are! The kids were so kind and welcoming and Dallyn and Corbin won't stop talking about how much fun they had! It was fun to see Dallyn and Shelby and Elise playing so well, their imaginations kept them practically out of sight....they only stopped playing "waitress" long enough to eat and swim a little! Corbin and Cameron hit it off really well and Landon and Parker were always so kind to make sure Corbin was included with "the BIG Boys". I esspecially loved Saturday evening getting to know Kal Bumgardner better , but Sunday was morning will be forever engrained in my spirit....Thanks to Jason, the Bumgardner's,(x3)the Campbells, and the Shelby's.....WE HAD A GREAT TIME!
