Sorry...

Sorry there has been no post for a LONG time. We have been in the process of moving! Most people think this is crazy and weird and wonder why you would EVER do this, but we have just moved in with some friends! We have been converting their garage into a room and that is where Josh and I live and the girls have their own room in the house! Why would you want to move in with friends you say? Well, it is fun! We have lived with people for 1 yr and 9 mo of our 3 year marriage and think it is fun! Some days, it is totally not fun living with people, but for the most part, it is fun and exciting! The people we moved in with are our really good friends (pretty much our best friends!). She is a stay at home mom as well, so we just get to hang out and play all day long together! We have 4 kids 2 and under in the house! It is SO fun! And you have built in babysitters! People all over the world live in tiny houses with other people and it is normal, yet in America, people think it is weird and uncomfortable. Pretty much anyone that finds out we are living with friends has something negative to say about it and says we are going to hate it, but we totally know this is what God wants for both of our families and know it is going to be great! We don't want to be anywhere but where God wants us, and this is it!
I am going to upload pictures later, so I will get some up in the next couple of days! I am trying to hold a 2 month old and type and it's difficult and taking forever, so this will be a short post!

I think that sounds cool. I can imagine that it isn't always perfect but how great would it be to have another mom to talk to and hang out with when ever you want, sooooooo jealous of that aspect.
By the way, are you guys still in Co. or are you back in Tx.

We live next door to our best friends and it has more perks than not thats for sure. We all lived together for 6 weeks before our hosue was done and it was fine. I wouldnt choose it for more than that. I am used to having my space when Dan is gone for many days and enjoy my serenity. Although having each other next door is a comfort when my husband is gone for lengths on a fire or whatever. :)

That does sound pretty fun! I'd like to live w/ my BFF...I think...

It'll be fun to keep up w/ you guys as the adventure continues!

PS- Where did Josh get his tatoo of the world? Locally? I want a water drop w/ the continents in it (representative of working to end the water crisis). I need someone who won't screw it up! LOL!
