Moving Day!

A lot has been happening the past few days! We got our moving orders. They will pack us up on the 29th, then move us on either the 30 or 31, so we will ring the New Year in in our new little home. Not only is this a New Year, but it is a new decade as well. We have a lot of "new things" in our life. A new house, a somewhat new car (the Yukon), a somewhat new baby (Escher!), a new city, and Matt has a new job. I guess you could say being a stay at home mom is a new job for me, too! We are looking forward to all of the wonderful things that 2010 is going to bring us! Our new home is a tiny 2 bedroom, 1 bath charming little beach cottage on 89th street at the North End of the beach. We can run the puppies at the beach, we can ride our beach cruisers (with the little buggy attached to the back so Escher can ride!) and the best part is we can walk to the ocean when ever we feel like it. There are sweet little trees where we can hang Escher's swing, and there is a great back porch where we can have dinner, play, and the doggies can rest. We will be selling/getting rid of a majority of our possessions that we do not use, and simplifying our lives. Our new little cottage doesn't have room for a lot of our stuff, but in a way, it makes both of us very happy to know that we are ridding ourselves of material stuff and really focusing on the things that matter; our family. We are really looking forward to warm weather and introducing Escher to the life that both Matt and I knew growing up- the ocean. We are so thankful to be able to come home and share Escher with our families. It is a lifestyle change that is a step in the right direction. And it all is going to happen in 11 days!
