From May to now;

Basically, a lot has been happening the last few months. We moved home in May (back to Knoxville area) and from then on we’ve been getting together with friends, having fun, and enjoying the down time before we head back to work and such. J separated from Active Duty and is now a member of the TN National Guard.  We should find out more in the next month or so on his stuff, but for me, I should be starting a new job soon (Prayers, please!) and then hopefully we can start saving for a nice vacation 🙂  That gets you caught up to now, basically.. here’s some more in-depth stuff! ha

Our drive home was long, and we had to drive through the bad storms in Kansas (all the tornadoes and the crazy wind/rain and what not) and the dogs didn’t quite care for the drive. Farix was on something, and so was Orion. They were kind of in a daze the whole trip, but I could tell they wanted it to be over. They’d get so excited at every stop, only to have to get right back in the car. Poor babies. Once we got home, Orion didn’t eat for a few days, but is luckily on a normal routine of scarfing down his food 🙂

June was very lackluster and boring. We did not get into much, other than my finally getting some hits on jobs (and a call back, which is hopefully coming through for me soon!) Our house in Colorado is on the market, and not even 2 miles away was a fire, quite a large one, that we had to worry about. It put a halt on the showings, but soon after things started picking up and we started getting showings towards the end of the month when the fires were contained. Now that brings us to July..

We had 8 or so showings within a week, and finally, from one of those, we got an offer. I was in awe, shocked and beyond excited, so I quickly called J, who was at home with his parents, discussing what we should do (since I was not there at the time) and we quickly came to a decision.  Shortly after our counter, we got a counter back, and well, we didn’t want to lose it, so we took it! We now have our house in CO under contract and we are waiting for it to close. yay! Aug 6 is the potential close date and now we can start focusing on what’s gonna happen next. That’s about it though for us, not too much excitement going on, other than our new huge tent and our urge to go camping soon 🙂

I’ll end it at that! Thanks for reading!
