Here We Go Again

The man who was contracted to buy our house is Utah is being transferred to Logan, so he will be moving out August 1st. We will be putting it on the market yet again. We will be making payments on two places yet again. We will be waiting to buy a house in Wisconsin even longer. If this goes on too long, I think it may kill me. Really. If you feel like praying for us, it would be really appreciated. I know many other people have much bigger trials such as illness or death and when compared to those, I am grateful for this trial, but I REALLY hope this won't last forever. Right now, it seems it will.

MIA

Has it really ben over a month? I was going to make the blog private forever ago and still haven't gotten around to it. I wonder if I can just change the address to just take our last name out.

Anyway, we have been busy traveling. We drove from WI to CA and went to DISNEYLAND with my parents and brother and his wife - pics to come! Then on to Utah for 4th of July celebrations. Adam flew back early and the kids and I stayed another week. For that trip we drove a total of 60 hours, not to mention the driving from one person's house to the next while we were there. Whew. The kids were awesome though! The first day, we planned to drive 10 hours and the kids were so good we just kept going and going and going 'til we got to Adam's parents' house in South Jordan, Utah. 20 hours in one day. We must be crazy. Our GPS keeps track of the stops along the way and we stopped a total of 1 hour and 2 minutes in that 20 hour period. Thank goodness we will forget what it was like by next July.

Then, Tuesday (yesterday) I got a call from my brother-in-law and my sister-in-law's water broke. Yay! It was a few weeks early and had no plans for anyone to help with the other kids while they were at the hospital. So, I got to be the one to share in their joy! Yay! We packed up in 2 hours and drove to Minneapolis. Thankfully that is only 4 1/2 hours. I am really glad I remembered underwear and diapers for everyone! Unfortunately, the baby came by c-section so they will be in the hospital 4 days (just means more time for me to bond with their girls!) but everyone is healthy and the baby is so cute! I hope to be able to do a photo shoot before I leave.

So, I am sorry if I skipped out on any plans this week and forgot to tell you. Now you know why. I'll be back to normal life again soon...maybe.
