New House!

WHEW!!! 

Or as my daughter and I like to say as I'm pushing her up a steep hill in the BOB: 

"OOH WHEE!"

After one solid week of packing, cleaning, and painting our old place; one solid weekend of unloading a 26 foot U-Haul (TWICE); one solid week of UNpacking, cleaning, and organizing our new place...we are feeling a bit settled :) 

AND, I never want to move again!

A great time to purge your belongings is right after you've moved your entire household, yourself. Because you're still pretty angry at that super heavy box of unknown "stuff" (that hasn't been opened since your last move) you had to remove from your old attic, put into the U-Haul, then removed from the U-Haul, only to put into your new attic...or better yet, the donation pile!!!

Believe it or not I haven't actually taken any pictures of our new house. Been kinda busy nesting! BUT my extremely helpful mother in law did!!! She was a huge help over moving weekend. Whether it was simply entertaining Sugar Bean so hubby and I could unpack the kitchen, or loading and unloading that dang U-Haul! We can't thank her enough.  So, I'm "borrowing" some of her pictures for this blog.

Without further ado here are some pictures of our new house!!!

(More to come later about our New Town!) 



Our little 1970's Ranch! Facing a Golf Resort.
The backyard. The grass is just 1/3 of the backyard.

The fabulous Carolina Room/4 Seasons Room/Playroom :)

The awesome pantry! See, I told you I didn't take any pictures!

The Family Room. We also have a separate Living Room.

    Oh wow, that place looks fabulous! And a fireplace! I haven't seen a fireplace since we got to Ft. Bliss! (no really, no one has them here) Looks like you got a great find! :)

Is it really still July?

Words cannot express my relief that August will soon be here...although I know full well it will bring challenges of its own...ending one month and starting the next is like a breath of fresh air and boy do I need some fresh air. Fresh salty air with sand under my toes would be really nice, actually. July essentially compounded the stresses of this first deployment experience. Because on top of the obvious: being a solo mommy to our toddler living 12 hours away from both sets of doting grandparents; the less obvious: is that I am the FRG Leader for my husband's Company. What the heck is an FRG Leader? Basically, aside from having a toddler in the house, its the sole reason I haven't had the time, nor the energy, to blog this deployment. And probably is the reason why I don't respond to your emails or text messages in a timely fashion, if at all. But really, FRG Leader stands for Family Readiness Group Leader. In the Army, it's the leader of a volunteer organizat

Welcome to Ironwoman31! It's a new year and it's time for a new you, right?! Right. The only problem with new years resolutions this year for me is that I have two very specific goals and desires that have been scribbled down on scrap paper since high school, just waiting to be achieved! So, my resolution this year is to pursue these particular two goals with as much grace and diligence as possible... Thus, the rebirth of my many inconsistent attempts at blogging! Thanks to my friend JG over at Me and My SoldierMan I've started this blog out on a different foot: WITH a bit of DIRECTION . :) Goal #1 has always been to be an Ironman Champion . Now, since I have a 16 month old baby girl and my husband is deploying (very) soon I'm revamping this to Ironman Finisher for this season. But, I do plan on hiring a coach so I can see what performing at my full potential looks like. Goal #2 has always been to inspire others.  Since I am a new mommy, military spo
