Last week was so nice and cool for a few days. I was so happy. It even rained.
Neely fell asleep in the car that rainy day, so we went WAY early to park in the parking lot and wait for Paige to get out of school. We were there for a good hour, so I worked on one of my bats, while Cason played in the car and Neely slept.
Luckily Neely woke up before Paige got done, so I didn't have to WAKE her up to go get her sister. I hate doing that.
We got Paige and went home. She immediately changed clothes and tried on the bat headband I made for her.
Now it's pretty warm again, but at least the mornings and evenings have that autumn feeling in the air. Plus Neely cheers me up by wearing this hat every chance she gets.
She also says "Thank you" every time someone gives her a kiss or hug lately. Such a honey.
I'm sure most of you have heard the news, but in case anyone hasn't, Jess accepted a job in Oklahoma City. He'll be starting November 1st, but working from home until after Christmas break. He'll go to Oklahoma City in the beginning of January. We're still not sure if we'll all go then, or if the kids and I will stay a bit longer so Paige can get further through the school year. We're not very good at being apart though, so we'll be doing more praying/talking/thinking on that. We're excited, because it'll be a change, and I've always wanted to live somewhere different. Then again I probably wouldn't have actually done it, because taking the kids away from family is hard and scary, but this opportunity just kind of came out of nowhere, and it's too great to pass up. It was a really hard decision, with leaving family, but we know it's the right one. Wish us luck and come visit!

Love the bat headband!! Secondly, We already plan on visiting PS it will be the week of April 21st to the 25th. I have to be in KS the night of the 25th :)Hope you are ready for us!
Awesome! We're MORE than ready!
How fun and exciting!! And a little scary, but change always is. I love moving. We actually just moved last weekend, haha. I had to promise Nathan we'd keep this house for at least 5 years :) So we'll see how that goes ;)
the headband is so adorable! but what the heck....moving! i was just so shocked as i read that. really? i don't know how to feel about this. i am happy for your new adventure but pretty sad that you are going to be far away.
I'm not happy about this at all :( Well, I'm happy for you guys because I know it'll be great for you, but I'm really selfishly sad for me.
We are sad/excited for you too! We have our own big moving decision to make in the next few months...whether to be apart a lot or move, so I feel your pain. It's hard to leave family - but adventures are fun too!
I'm planning a visit already too and it's gonna be a road trip do Tyra you better get ready to take a little time off work around March cuz I'm gonna make you drive with me. Haha.
Are you selling the headbands or how can I find out how to make them?
Hey Anonymous, I wasn't planning to sell them in the shop, just because I'm never sure how big to make the headband. But if you email me what size head it's for I would make you one. Or if you email me asking how I made it I can try and give you instructions. I don't think I'll post them because I'm not good at it, I'm not even sure they'll make sense to you. Ha.
Congrats on the new gig, Jess!! Moving is a great, big adventure that will bring ya'll even closer as a family! And think of all the new blogging material you'll have!! =) Wishing you guys a smooth transition and happy life in OKC.
I forgot to say how cute Neely is in her baseball shirt and Paige with her headband. And I think you should sell those headbands and just take orders with measurements of the kids noggins.
And Connie, I'm in!
