moving??

so, Alot going on!

we have had 2 more birthday's. Miss Madelyn is now 5, and Miss Malorie is 3!!!! my big big girls!

party will be soon....FUN!

so, everything was kinda crazy for a while. John was offered a job with PG&E, up in Red Bluff. we went there checked out area, there was a forest fire like 10 miles away, rattlesnakes in the back yards, etc etc.. in a different world.
In different situation, we might have moved. but as it stands now, we need to be around our familes. there is just so much "LIFE" going on, that we don't really want to be that far away. it is about an 8 hour drive, I drove it by myself, it is easy peasy, but there is litterally nothing past sacramento. the closest places to go is oregon. like it is litterally 1 hour or so away. kinda like for us going up to fresno, they go to oregon. so anywho.... i could go on and on about the reasons why we wanted to go, and the "why's" of staying. but im sure it would be boring for others. the reasons we used, to make our decision were OURS. we didn't let anyone know what was going on because honestly, we didn't want any outside influences. it needed to be our own decision. and i think we chose correctly by staying home.  there are friends and family that always know where to find us. there are friends and family that always know we are here. and there are new friends and old friends we just don't want our family growing up without.  and new family and old family we are not ready to be without.  so anywho... during this decision making process, we have realized alot about our family we have kinda picked it apart with needles and tweasers.. haha... lots of changes going on. and lots of much needed mental regrouping. we were ready to pack up and start a new life. and everything got put on hold. birthdays and starting of the school year were kinda in the dust. so now we are playing catch up. you see, we had said yes at first, so everything kinda was chaos. but everything is getting back to normal. yea! like we actually have a normal! haha!
