Its time to move it, move it

Hi. Its been a minute since I have visited here, but I wanted to report some news. We are moving. Yep, out of our current home and into another home. Neither of which are our home (we're renting, not buying) and although we love the idea of buying, we find ourselves in a better position to rent, for right now. In addition we are downsizing.....dramatically. Mainly so that at a later time we can eventually buy, and save even more money between now and then.

Moving is fun, an adventure. But its also somewhat sad. Only in the sense that we are closing a chapter and beginning a new one. When I was young, my family moved 7 times in 7 years before I turned 7. (wow, lots of 7's - never considered that before). And I don't remember much about those homes. I think about my daughter now (she's turning 2 in a week) and I wonder how she's going to react being in a new place, never having known any other place as home. But then I remember that to her, we are her home. It's her father and I that constitute 'home' for her. And if nothing else, as she lives through this process, that message will be reinforced. Change is inevitable. Transition is a great part of life. So I am focused on the adventurous part of this journey. 

And my husband and I are dusting off our design hats and going to work on new furniture layouts as well as refurbishing older pieces of furniture that we will finally get to showcase. Stay tuned. This is going to be fun! 

PS...our new home is on the lake...seriously, does it get any better? #weareblessed
