This and That

Well VBS is over and so are our dates for awhile. We will be busy getting this house ready to sell and all the other stuff that goes along with moving. I am getting excited about our new house and I can't believe we will be closing in less than 2 weeks. I also am excited because every time you move it feels like a chance to start over in a fresh place. I am already imagining family breakfasts that I cooked from scratch, eating dinner all together at the same table, (we have never had a table that seated all of us at once, so Nate and I ate all meals on the sofa, while the kids ate at the table. It's in the same room as them.) I am so looking forward to the added space, so that everything can be stored neatly. Yea!! The house has a big front porch so I am looking forward to hanging plants on it, and drinking tea while reading a good book. The best thing however will be sending the kids out to wander the land and play in the creek, they all love catching crayfish, water snakes, frogs, and salamanders. I also will not have to worry about them getting run over in the street, where we are now the cars go by at about 60mph or more. yikes!

Nate is off today riding his motorcycle with his buddies. This always makes me nervous because he pushes himself to ride pretty fast through the mountain curves. When I'm on back he takes it easy, it's hard to scrape your pegs when you got a passenger. He is an excellent rider, so his risks are less than some. He use to race superbikes before we got married, but somehow that didn't bother me, probably because we didn't have kids, and I didn't love him as much as I do now. So I think I will go make myself busy until he comes home.
