Whirlwind

What a month(s).....yup I feel like for the first time in a while I have come up for air to breathe, I know it will only be a short time until it gets crazy busy once again.

I called my mom and for my birthday I told her I want 1 of 2 things.  1) a neat desk scanner to help get rid of the bill/paper clutter or 2) a professional organizer to come help organize and get rid.....her response was......"Blah ha ha ha that was funny so what can I get you that I can afford?"....I told her "a gift card to Subway" she just laughed

What have I been doing.....I am not so sure...maybe some pictures will help with that!

To start we moved!  In the middle of moving and unpacking we have been trying to stay caught up with life....

Jeff is close to graduating.  This was the weekend we moved!  His mom bought a graduation/fathers day cake and he was practicing for graduation with the cake decoration! The weekend after we moved in we went on a short family vacation!!!

Payeton was trying to catch up on her beauty sleep in the car!


Jasmin refused to give in!




Best Friends!!!



Our family likes to be silly.....That sure do hate snuggle time!


In my family 4 generations does not happen (meaning my sibblings, parents, grandparents).  So when we went to Jeff's family reunion I finally won and got a 4 generation picture.  This is the girls Jeff, Jeff's mom Sue, and Sue's Dad, Don Meldrum (A.K.A Grandpa Meldrum).  He turned 90 this year and he is AMAZING.  He is a giant.  He stands (well used to stand) at about 6'9.  No wonder my girls are so tall.


The girls absolutely love to swing.  When we go to the park all they want to do is swing!



Jeff Graduated.  Bragging Rights - he is the only one in his program that graduated with honors and his program was had about 20-25 people in it.  He worked his butt of for 2.5 years and it shows he now has a killer job and loves it.


I am proud of him and all of his hard work


This is our new place when we first moved in.  The girls were trying very hard to help us unpack.....we are still trying to unpack!


Jasmin turned 5 and we had a small party for her!


Girls just want to have fun!


Jeff was a rock star and took the girls for the weekend a few weekends ago to the beach to see grandma and grandpa.  So I busted a move tried to clean unpack and organize.This is part of our room before!


And after


Here is our office after hours of work.  We are far from done, but it is getting there.  

Our June and start of July were hectic, I am not sure if things have actually calmed down or not or maybe it is just because I have gotten used to the pace of life now.  We have come to the conclusion that we be unpacked and moved in the week before it is time to move again. Our goal is to be in our apartment for only 1 year. 

As the girls get older we are starting to have more fun, and they are getting sillier by the day.  

I am just amazed how much we have accumulated and how much we have gotten rid of.

  1. Oh man, moving is the pits! I have soo much stuff and dread the thought of moving again bc of that. Even though I try to get rid of stuff constantly..ah well. I hope you guys love your new place! Super congrats to your husband on graduating. That must feel so nice! I know how you mean with life so super busy you can hardly breathe. That has been me for the last 3 months or so. But! The job I was at decided not to hire me (temp job) so now Im on the hunt again and have some 'free time' to catch up on things in life. A little more flexibility to my schedule. I will love it but hope to have another job in the next few weeks.
