Needless to say...I am a little behind

Between this post and the last Josh interviewed at a job in San Antonio and received a great offer. We decided to make the move and three weeks later we were on the road with everything we own in the world. Yes! Many things happened in that three weeks.

-We worked hard on fixing up the house to sell, including replacing light fixtures, touch up paint, patching walls, replacing bedroom carpet, fixing tile, planting flowers out front.

- Listing our house, including picking a realtor, finding comparables, taking pictures

- Blessing Elijah William Black

- Packing up our house

-Selling our house. The first people who looked at it made an offer.

- My birthday

- Saying good-bye to friends

- Packing up our Penske

- Josh's brother's wedding (Matt & Amanda)

- Very tearful good-bye to family

- Driving 3 days all day and late into the night to San Antonio

love the pictures with grandma - progression from smiling to not looking. reminds me a little bit too much about my mom saying goodbye about 3 weeks ago! when asked about us, she says "we just don't talk about that." so hard to take those grandkids away!!!

congrats on josh's job! seems like everyone is moving back to texas as soon as we leave! enjoy those cute little boys!

You guys are amazing for surviving as many moves as you have in the last couple of years. I am sure you are both becoming pros at the process. We will be in SA at Christmas, and if our schedules work maybe we can say hi.

I was missing you guys, so I was browsing your blogspot. It just made me miss you more. I am excited to hear more about Caleb and school - does he start kindergarten? or not?

Love you!!!!

A second welcome back to Texas! Reading your post exhausted me and I must go to bed right away...

My goodness, that is an amazing amount to pull off, even without the wedding, the birthday, and ESPECIALLY the newborn!!!

Glad your home sold so quickly. Hope San Antonio starts to feel like home soon...
