Less than cheery disposition...

Not sure why I am even sitting down do to a blog post because I am feeling a little gloom today. I know I have nothing to be "gloomy" about. I have so many good things in my life (my husband, children, family, life, home) but I suppose we are allowed to have those days. Today I am missing my church. We went to church this morning and it is just so different from what we are use to. We never realized how spoiled we were until we started visiting other churches. I just can't say enough about SouthEast...our home church. The music, the preaching, its guiding principles,....it truly is a flagship for all Christian churces. So, in saying that, I know it is not fair to compare any other church to it. I told Brian this morning that we are going to have to compare the churches in our town to each other (to find the best fit) not the churches to SouthEast. There is no comparison and by doing so..we will never be content. Please pray for us that we find a good church home and that our hearts are open and receptive. Other than that, I am just ready to get in our new home. This sleeping on an air mattress is the pitts and now......believe it or not....ALL of us are sleeping in one room. Yes, all 5 of us....me, Brian, bubba, sissy, and the dog. What was suppose to be a one time sleepover in Will's room has turned into a permanent vacation for the kids. We get no sleep and they love it. Sissy then decided that she too needs to sleep in a big girl bed aka on an air mattress (go ahead and laugh)...which means no more plack-n-play...which means the ability to get up and down or move all around...which means Brian and I aren't getting a lot of rest these days. Oh well...short term right. Here are some highlights from the week....




The kitchen is in. Counter tops will be installed Thursday.
Our sleeping arrangments. One queen size air mattress, one twin air mattress, one twin bed, a dog cage, and a spiderman sheet for curtains. Quite a fashion statement huh?

Will earned all 5 of his homework stars so he finally got his Thor mask and shield. Thank you Maw-Maw for your contribution.
And pretty Sissy. Always with a weed (or as she calls it...flower) in her hand and some type of animal. She carries around more stuff than any other child I know.


So, enough gloom and doom. We are looking forward to seeing the T family and Tracy this week as well as attending Will's preschool open house. We also have another playdate with the Newcomer's Club so our calendar is slowly starting to fill up. I am thankful for the new and familiar faces.
