Flashlight Please...

Have you ever thought everything was going great and that you could see the light at the end of the tunnel and man was it bright? Well we thought everything was going 100% in the right direction with the sale of our house in Ga and then BAM. We got hit with a double rock to the head. I am not going to go into to much detail but our mortgage company hadn't sent paperwork about the payoff and when we called to ask about it they said they were not aware of said paperwork. AHHHHHH really I mean we close in a week how do you not know about paperwork. So now we are forced to start a new packet and get it approved all by next week. Really? Oh Lord how are we going to pull this off? Faith and prayers??? I had a tough time remembering that God is always there and always in control and that he will not give us something we can not handle, somehow, someway he is going to make this work. So for now we are praying hard for the light at the end of the tunnel again and that our mortgage company gets their act in gear and accepts our offer and now. Please Lord make this work and fast. Amen!!!

Cleaning, visitors & more cleaning!!!

I have found that I LOVE family and or friends coming over for visits, however I have to admit that I am a little to sad when they leave. I love my "alone" time with my husband and my children I do, but to have lived on the other side of the country for over 6 years it is nice having family around. Bailie and Jeff came for a visit and it was such a great time with them. We went and saw sights of Seattle. We all had fun, we also learned that um maybe 2 days in a row of walking all over Seattle might be a little to much, as we all paid for sore bodies the next day, but it was an amazing time. Saturday we went to the Pacific Science Center. Truely one of our families favorite places to go. A HUGE place filled with robots, science experiments and Butterflys! We ended the day with a trip to the Space Needle. What an amazing building. Although a little bit crowded and a big nauseating, still a must see! Sunday was the aquarium and tons of shopping! What a blast. Love you guys!!!

COLD weather... Burrrrrrr

Today we are starting to experince Fall weather. Now the locals up here are loving it and they say it feels about right, a little on the cold side, but right for this time of the year and well the 4 from S.E. Georgia say ummm it is down right freezing. Currently the temp is 48°F. Today's high is 51°F. I think shopping for warm clothes and putting away the tank tops and flip flops and making soup with the fire going. is in order for this holiday. Trying to stay warm!!!

My new kitchen toy

During the move my bread machine broke, so I really had to think about getting a new one. On ebay I found a great deal on a wolfgang puck bread machine, so I bought it and I can't tell you how many loafs of bread I have made. The smell of homemade bread, awww you can't beat that smell. I have made 2 coffee cakes for breakfast, 2 cakes and a dozen loafs of bread and the best part... my favorite part it has saved us so much money and has already paid for itself. Oh yeah!!! I Love new kitchen toys!
