Too cool...Hey everybody!! It has been quite a while since I blogged. We have been very busy lately - more on that later. This last weekend my boys headed east back home to the mountains to visit Papaw, Jody and Mamaw (among others, of course). Toby went to help Jody do a few things on her condo and to do some visiting. Toby said Beau had a great time, especially at Papaw's farm. He loves to run around outside and apparently loves to ride the 4-wheeler (without a helmet - much to Mommy's dismay - Daddy has been scolded...).
The girls stayed home and had weekend of eating out and shopping with Mee-Mee, Aunt Ramona and Erica. I have probably packed on some poundage this weekend as we ate at J.Alexander's Friday night, The Cheesecake Factory Saturday afternoon, Kobe's Saturday night and Cracker Barrel Sunday after church! Isn't that ridiculous? I am about to pop!! Abby and I also went to her friend Little Howard's birthday party where Barney made an appearance on Saturday. Abby kept screaming "Don't touch me!" if Barney got too close to her. I think she was OK with him until she saw him take his purple hand off so he could use his human hand to tie a balloon animal. She started crying when she saw that and said to me, "Mommy, why is that man trapped inside of Barney?" The crying subsided but never completely stopped after that until he left the premises! The camera was with Daddy so, sadly, I have no pictures of our fun girls' weekend. Maybe next time...
Last but not least ---- Yes, we are moving south!! Toby has decided to accept an offer to do a pulmonolgy/critical care fellowship. We are not sure on exact moving times yet, but it will be before the end of the year for sure. The fellowship will be for three years, then we hope to head back home and be settled for good!! We are very excited as this is a great opportunity for Toby. Having said that, we also sold our house already!! We put it on the market for sale by owner and had not trouble at all! I feel like God has really blessed our family with this opportunity as well as with the easy sell of our house. Please keep us in your prayers as we are going through and will be continuing to go through a lot of change over the next few months! Start saving those frequent flyer miles to come visit - it will be a 10 hour drive home!!! Thanks to everyone for their support and words of encouragement as we embark on this new journey!
