Exciting New Beginnings...

Last weekend I went to Cincinnati to meet my NEW NEPHEW!!! I'm so excited to be an aunt. I love him soo much and I miss being away from him.

He's the sweetest baby ever. His name is Mason and at birth he weighed 6lbs 6oz and was 20'' long.

My sister Ashley is doing great with him.

WE'RE MOVING!!! We listed our house for sale and we got 12 showings, and 2 offers in only 5 days.

We close this coming Wed so we're moving most of our stuff into pods this weekend.

The kids just go with the flow. They are still young enough to be excited about moving.

Instead of moving to Kenosha, we decided to try NORTH CAROLINA!!! We had plans of retiring there someday but figured why wait for mountains, beaches, warmer winters, cheaper prices, and close driving distance to Tenn, S. Carolina, and even Florida. So 2 weeks ago Josh and I went out there to explore and interview.

We stayed one night in the mountains near Asheville.

I knew we'd love the natural beauty of the state but it was even more lush and beautiful than I expected. I can't wait to go hiking, camping, frisbee golfing, and visit all the state parks and national forests!!!

There were trees everywhere that were 3 times taller than any near us. It felt so refreshing, clean and easier to breathe.

We spent 2 nights in CHARLOTTE, our soon to be new home!!! Josh took a job at a private practice with a really nice guy.

We can't wait to move but we have to stay until Josh's last day of work on July 31st. We couldn't find a place to rent for 30 days so we're going to move into our good friends very nice basement.

P.S. A special thank you to Grandma Neubauer for staying with the kids while Josh and I travelled the last 2 weekends.
