Howdy Y'all

This dancing cowboy is headed to Texas! Merik is so excited to move to Texas and be a cowboy. He tells everyone that he is going to ride horses and go fishing...I guess that is what cowboys do!

After 6 1/2 years of marriage we are moving into our first real house. We found a place to rent in Forny, TX. 20 miles from downtown Dallas. It is a 3 bedroom house in a master planned community. That means we have access to a swimming pool, kids splash park, covered playground, skate park, basketball courts and baseball fields, and more. The elementary school is just down the street and we can walk to a huge lake and take Merik fishing! I am soooooo excited to have a garage, backyard, kitchen pantry, laundry room...all of those little convinces I used to take for granted.



I told Micah we are going to be the little American dream family. Two darling children, a nice house in the suburbs, a mini-van, and gobs of debt!
This is a picture of the house a year ago when it was just built. Micah's dad was going to check it out on his last business trip, but there was a huge storm and tornado warnings so he couldn't make the trek out there. What are we getting ourselves into!!!!!

WOW! WOW! WOW! I love that the master bedroom is called the owner's retreat. With a mansion like that we know who we can call if we ever need a place to stay in Texas!

Sadly my American dream will just have to wait a year or five. Someday...
