Big News!


Nope, not pregnant. HA!

Soon, we will no longer be apartment dwellers, we'll be moving into a house. Official "big stuff" moving day is August 20th, but we'll start moving little stuff this weekend.

We are able to get out of our lease, and I don't hate this apartment complex at all...it's really nice, and management is great. I'd recommend Quail Creek in Southwest Springfield any day.

But our little family of 3 is ready for a house, and ready to pay a little more a month to live in one.

Here are some things I'm looking forward to:
Backyard! Little Cash has to smell every single blade of grass before he decides where to do his business...now we'll be able to just toss him out the back door! (seriously, have you ever had a prissy dog...in an apartment...in the winter?)
Bigger kitchen that I'm so excited to cook in. Just call me Giada. Except I won't pronounce my Italian ingredients nearly as obnoxiously.
Actually being able to do my workout DVDs P90X requires a good amount of jumping, and we currently live on the second floor. Now I can get "super fit, X-style."
Just feeling at home, which I haven't really felt in a long time. To me, an apartment just feels like a perma-hotel.
Growin' herbs in the backyard I mean like basil.
More room! No more bill paying station/dining room table/random, yet important things/mail gathering corner.

So while I will miss the adorable old man downstairs, and the sweet neighbor dog who we refer to as Cash's girlfriend, I think this will be a good move for us!

After moving comes the fun part: decorating...rock n roll style!
