Last Week

I wanted to post last week when we got back to Colorado. But, life got busy with work, school, Ricki returning to her teaching duties, etc. It is excellent to be back in Colorado but we miss our good friends and family we were blessed to spend so much time with. I will say this about my job. It is an absolute wonderous thing that I managed to find a job that provides me this much flexibility. We love to travel around, and with this job we can because I can work from anywhere that has an Internet connection. We are entering the final week of our "days in the wilderness" and will be taking possession of the new home on Saturday. To say that we are excited would be a gross understatement. We have a host of friends, and their hospitality and kindness have allowed us to save the rent we would have had to pay for the month-and-a- half we have been out of the condo. Everyone is getting s little crazy but at night when everyone is sleeping Ricki sit in bed and talk about all the great things we are looking forward to. This list includes but is not limited to a garage, a back yard, an awesome deck on which to place my smoker and BBQ, having a room for Keelyn to call her own so coordinating bedtimes with the boys isn't so difficult, an office so that I'm not working in my bedroom anymore, and the list goes on and on.
I'm greatful for my blessings. Now I just need to keep that in mind with a busy week scheduled.

Huh...what? We're doing fine.

No. things are great. Yes, we are on our third house during our nomadic experience. We learn different lessons at each house. So what if Keelyn is eating her own foot and the boys are switching underwear...and clothes. We're sleeping in shopping carts and taking our agressions out in new and creative ways. I'm sure Ken could follow us and write a few case studies. In reality we are having a good time. Things are going well and it has been nice to see family and friends in Utah.
