The last few weeks in Pittsburgh were a bit cramped. With boxes every where in our tall and skinny town home it was a bit hard to move around, live, pack, and boy that last week was HOT! Thomas and I decided we would pack up all the boxes in the truck the day before the ward came to help us load up the heavy furniture...oh my, I think Thomas lost 20lbs in sweat and I thought we might die! Moving is just plain hard work, and I'm glad its over for now.
We're on to greener pastures for now in a great rental while we do a bit of saving and house hunting. I really can't express my gratitude to our Heavenly Father for helping us make it this long with out a paycheck, with a huge move and all. I am so impressed by Thomas and his excellent budgeting skills and just feel so great about the whole situation. We really were blessed. Not to mention how blessed we are with this house/location we are in right now. For not ever looking at the house or the area around it we really did luck out. Ainsley and Claire will be able to walk to school, every day, its just around the block and Alli's bus stop is right across the street from us, the train station that Thomas takes to work is a mere 5 minutes away and we have nice neighbors. It's been so nice because there's a 10 year old girl across the street and a 11 year old girl next door, so the girls have instant friends, have had sleep overs already and it just makes me happy to be able to have kids in and out of my house and not feel like I'm going to scream because there is no room for anyone to move. WE even have a few unwanted neighbors who stop by on a daily basis to jump on our trampoline, Rainier doesn't mind at all, nor do I, but the girls aren't to crazy about some of the younger ones that invite themselves over. :) I'm just happy if someone is willing to jump with Rainier, who I think if allowed would jump all day long.
