Settled in....

I think it is safe to say that the adjustment to moving has been a success, but not because I didn't work at it!!! It wasn't easy! The boys were born & raised in the country-not anyone within miles of us, a tank & fishing pole at our fingertips, enough acreage that one could get lost, and only the sounds of frogs, birds, & cows!!! Heaven! So a move into town was scary-for all of us! I slowly eased the boys into it. We would talk about it, visit the new house, make decisions about it together, check on the progress, etc. Then over spring break, we made the move! The boys did well!! I gave Jason an extra weekend because the boys need to have the consistency! When theta have more than one weekend in a row with either of us & our routine is squished! That also gave me a chance to get REALLY situated!!! Since then I wonder how I've made it as long as I have living so far out!! CCD, baseball games & practice, grocery nights, just getting home is so much easier!! Plus, I'm pretty sure Mom & Dad a loving the fact that I don't have to camp out at their house!!

This weekend, I decided to bring Whiskey into town with us. Between Mom,Dad, & I we were making trips out to the farm to feed Whiskey & Goober. Well, it seems as though Goober got tired of us not being there and bailed!!! Whiskey handled it so well!! No accidents, no whinning, no barking, no problems!! Now we haven't left her for a full day yet, though! That may be the kicker....of course we don't have a fenced in backyard yet so........only time will tell!!
