Movers are coming!

It's been a long busy month! After 2 months waiting we got an offer on our house. Now we wait on closing. Meanwhile we found a perfect house for us. It' s much larger- 6 bedrooms and 3500 sq feet for space. I picked up keys yesterday.   We move in on Friday!!!!

We spent yesterday packing and setting up utilities. Today we found out they didn't on, nor did they plan to repaint 2 rooms of the house. . We quickly went and replenished supplies and went to the house to get primer on the walls. After 2 coats we can still see the original paint...... Sigh! Tomorrow we add more primer in the morning and color in the evening! (aparently no one wants the hot pink bedroom!!!)


They also replaced the refrigerator with a new smaller one, so we spent the day scrambling to find a suitable replacement! Brooke and Hyun will pick it up tomorrow.

The kids are all excited to move - they will all have their own rooms a and plenty of yard work since the yard needs lots of attention!

All this comes on the heels of North American Nationals-  Taryn & I pent a week in Anaheim and just returned monday. I spent the week next to the biggest Dress designer in the Irish Dance world and his head seamstress was impressed with my dresses!  Taryn got to dance on the beach, hang out with TapTronic and meet up with old dance friends. Her teachers said " To be able to represent your school at a National level is an achievement in itself , The National Championships is the Worlds with a different name you share the stage with some of the most talented dancers across the world and everyone one of our dancers held there own and deserved to be there. We were very proud"

  1. Congrats on your new place! I had a pink classroom in High School. First class of the morning on the 3rd floor. Economics. It reminded me of Pepto Bismol and I felt sick by association. Good call on the re-painting. :)

    Awesome news about the dress impressions. Ya done good.

  2. I'm sure you'll be happy when you're all settled and everything is perfect in your new abode. Moving is lots of hard work as I can attest and that's why I'm staying here until I relocate down the road several miles. Dresses are beautiful; I especially love that green/white dress. Hope all goes well.
