Feeling Like Home... FINALLY!!

It's been just over a month since we moved into our own apartment and it's finally feeling like home... at least for me.

We have a nice washer and dryer (thank you tax returns), 


a new to us couch (thanks Sue and Dale), a new TV, 


and a table to eat meals at!!!  


The girls are settled in to a routine and enjoying school.  A's making friends at school and at church and so is M.  Z is enjoying his job, too! I'm still trying to find my own rhythm, now that everyone is here... but it's coming.  There are days that it's great, and others that aren't.  But that's life, right?  

Winter in Texas has been interesting to say the least.  We had 3 days of "ice" and then we went back to work and it started to warm back up again.  I kinda thought that might be it for the season... Boy was I wrong!  We ended up with about 3 inches of snow on top of several inches of ice last Wednesday afternoon-Thursday.


Days like Thursday are the days that make me wish we lived just a little further south, it was worse where we live than it was at work, and it was pretty bad at work that day.  Apparently Texas weather is actually more Bipolar than Michigan weather... ;)

Last week was the 100th birthday of the US Navy Reserve.  Our team at work participated in the cake cutting ceremony at the Naval Operational Support Center that is house downstairs in the building I work in.


They had some pretty phenomenal cakes made by the Fort Worth Culinary School.




This week I'm blessed to be able to work with some pretty cool people in Shreveport during their drill weekend.  And then, we have a special surprise planned for the girls for their Spring Break!  We haven't told them yet, because we don't really want to have to answer constant questions about what we're doing and where we're going...  BUT, they will love it and I'm excited, even though it will be a fast in and out for us.

Thanks for stopping by!!
