We are officially less than 4 weeks away from "moving day" once again :) In the past 15 months, we've lived in 3 different states (4 for Mike), 4 different places, been to over 10 states, and have added a family member! It's been a busy year, to say the least :) We are all extremely excited about this move, as it will be the one that gets us back to the place we love, TEXAS! Little did I know, that in 2004 when Michael took me on a trip to Texas, that I too would fall in love with the Lonestar State like he already had. Everything about our old town of New Braunfels, felt like home to both of us. And now, after over a year of traveling, we will be back to our "old" stomping grounds. This time, with TWO little boys in tow, one of whom is a True Texan, having been born there in 2007.
Hello to everyone and welcome back to those who were a part of our previous blog! I started a blog about our family of 3 back in 2007 when our first son, Matson was born. Most of our family and friends live out of state, so it was a great way to keep everyone up to date on our day-to-day stuff. That blog grew, our family grew, and now it's time to start fresh.
So a quick play-by-play of our family history:
Mike and I, Emily, met in 2003 in Louisville, KY. We worked together at Captain's Quarters and started dating in October. I went to TX with Mike in the late summer of 2004 and we moved to New Braunfels in November of that year. We got engaged the following December and were married in Louisville, KY 9 months later, in August of 2006. 9 months after our wedding, we welcomed our first son, Matson, into our family :)
Matson kept us very busy (and still does) :) When he was 19 months, I got pregnant with our second child. A few days after finding out about our baby-on-the-way, Mike got a job offer that moved him out of state for 5 months of training, and would take us all out of state after he finished that. He left home, I put the house on the market, and by the grace of God, it sold quickly. We packed up and moved to AZ for 9 months, when he took another job that would take us to another state for training, once again. But this time, once training is complete, his new job will be in TX!!! The kiddos and I were able to visit family and friends in KY for a month, and have now joined Mike in GA for the past 4 months. We have 4 weeks left in this beautiful state, then we'll be back in TX!
So feel free to sit back, grab some coffee, tea, beer or whatever you drink, and read any and all that you wish! I hope to update once a week or so. Thanks for visiting!!!
