Newest West Family Addition

Her name is Dixie and she's on the right of this picture. She's a sweet puppy and the kids love her. It's a perfect situation since it's their dog. Lucky has always favored me and Robert so this is a good thing! Will be even better once Lucky warms up to her. Olivher our unique kitty - well she doesn't like anyone..

Still Moving In

We're still moving into the house. Not officially living there but should be by the end of the week. Currently working on the kids rooms. Today we discovered that we will be able to have concrete floors. Felecia and I tore up the tiles - probably were put down 40 years ago anyways going to paint them and use throw rugs. This will keep the house nice and cool. Had concrete floors once before and loved them.

So goal one is to be living in the house by the end of the week and the kids completely moved into their rooms and settled. The rest of the house - well thats another story. Should be completely moved in by the first of the year. That goal is actually before Christmas, think we can do it to if we stay focused.

In a couple weeks I'll start posting before and after pictures. This house is going to look great when were finished with it. It looks nice now but we are doing some HGTV Color Spashing to it to personalize it.. When I say finished, I wonder if anybody is really ever really finished with anything?

Halloween

I forgot to post Halloween pictures. Been busy moving into the house. It was Blakes last year to trick or treat so he and I ventured out and had some fun. Don't be alarmed that's a fake gun. Seeing him in digital camoflauge was a reality check for his military venture he wants to pursue at`18. Anyways we went down park street in Greenville where all the old houses are, was fun. Felecia dressed up just because she wanted to. Think next year we'll do some kind of festive party at the house.

Our Home!

This is our home including 4 acres. We've been moving in the last couple of days so I'm a little tired and not up to writing that much. Moving is the pits but well worth it. Will post more pictures later. We're very blessed and everyone is so excited.

Felecia and Chief

Felecia rides again, what a great morning! She did good for having almost a month off. Looking forward to what she will accomplish with her new instructor. We have been blessed with everyone we've come in contact with during this adventure, we're feeling fortunate, God is good. Always answering prayer and looking over us. I'm truely blessed to be able to watch both my kiddos accomplish their dreams. Not only does she ride here but she also gets to work too. She starts that tomorrow morning for a couple hours. So proud of her..
