A new start..a new life:)

Most you you probably already know this, but big changes are coming for my lil' family this summer! We will be moving to Logan,UT!! yay! Jared got accepted to Utah State University and he will be starting classes there this fall. We went and toured the campus..it is soo nice and Logan is a Great place! We are really really excited, nervous about the unknown..yes, but excited nonetheless! I am so proud of Jared for going back to school! The awesome thing is that he only has 40 credits and he will be done with his Bachelors degree..then its off to Grad school and depending on the route he decides to take, possibly going for his PhD..but we will cross that bridge when we get there. We are going to be living in family housing on campus..for atleast the 1st year. I think it will be awesome to be there in the middle of all the college action and activities. Its always nice to meet new people, esp. others who are in the same boat as you..ya know? Its just really nice to finally have a plan and atleast know for a suretythis is where we are suppose to go. We both feel so good about this decision and we know although times will definately be tough at times, our family will be blessed for making this choice. So, since we are moving in July..July 8th to be exact:)..we have been crazy busy getting the house ready to put on the market. I ask myself daily..'Self, why did you wait 5 years to do any work on the house?' Yes, in a perfect world we would have gotten projects done around here over the last 5 years...but REALITY check!..my world is not perfect,soooooooo that ruins that! So now we are having to hussle to get everything finished. We are getting new carpet in a couple of weeks..so once that goes in Im sure things will start flowing alot better..atleast hoping they will! We are shooting to put the house up around the 1st of March...I know, that is just around the corner..AHH!! But anywho, I have taken some pics of the process..and as we do more and finish things I will take more and post them.

DISCLAIMER: If you are a neat freak..you may not be able to stomach what you are about to view..We are NOT clean and tidy when it comes to home projects!!

The kids had to get in on the fun!

Our ghetto blanket/curtain door..until our door comes in

But when our door does come in, this is what it will look like:)

Toliet shot of the bathroom makeover!

Another view of the bathroom..still need to get the chair rail and baseboard up..but I am lovin' the beadboard!

Ok, I know there is soo much crap everywhere its hard to tell what you are looking at, but this is the kids room in total destruction!..no kids were buried or harmed during the painting process..
