I spent most of the day today cleaning out closets and going though clothes. Many garbage bags later and well organized closets i'm a happy woman. I'm not going to lie, I love having a clean and organized house. We have far to much stuff! I can't wait to condense down more in the future for a move to Minnesota. Lord willing of course. Right now our goal is to move to Minnesota. It would be great to move by the summer, but it may be another couple of years. We can get so much more for our money there, and we just really feel that Matt would be able to grow his business bigger there, then he can here in washington. We do love washington and we will miss living so near the mountains and ocean, but minnesota offers up it's own beauties. We are looking into possibly buying a small farm so that we can raise some cattle! That's exciting to me... i've always had this strange like for cows. I grew up in the city but really my heart is in the country. I want to learn to can my own veggies and make jam and just live a more "home grown" life. We'll see were the Lord leads and how he guides us. It's really in his hands.

As for the cleaning thing, it fell through. A little dissapointing, but life happens and things are always changing.

I enjoy weekends and having Matt around. The boys are happier and I love being a family! I wish the weekends lasted longer!

ANd now some pictures! The first picture is what happens when Daddy watches the baby outside... LOTS of mud! The second is just Elijah being cute and the last is an attempt at a family picture!
