It's late Monday night and I need to be sleeping!! I have so many thoughts rushing through my head. Robb and I spent the weekend in KnoxVegas checking everything out. We signed our lease to our apartment (which is definately going to be an adjustment) and then we just rode around and got to know the area. We went to his new office, the mall, Wal-Mart, Target, etc...It was fun to see ALL the things that were right at our fingertips to grab hold of.
However, I feel like blogging will be the best way for me to get all this "stuff" off of my mind instead of just talking about it. I feel like I shouldn't be talking to anyone about anything going on with us right now, in fear of hurting someones feelings or offending someone. So, here's the skinny...Robb and I are PURE GIDDY right now. We are so pumped about the move, but feel like I should feel guilty about being so excited. Why is that? When Robb is talking about, sshhh, Knoxville, I feel like I should jump in and stop him so that people don't think we are excited. What in the world? So weird to feel that way. I feel as if we are being disloyal (is that a word?) by talking about this without tears.
Anyway, I am excited about Thursday and getting settled and getting started in Tennessee, but I think I could use another week to get packed!! Not happening, but I could use it. See, it's a little complicated trying to pack boxes while the little ones are going behind me and unpacking or screaming, "hold you" the entire time I'm trying to do anything. I'm pretty much at the point now of just dumping stuff into garbage bags and hoping that it doesn't break and dealing with it later.
I currently have lists...1) on my new crackberry (I may not know how to do anything on that phone, but I can make a list), 2)on my fridge, 3) in my pocket calendar, 4)on pieces of paper in my pocketbook, and 5) in my head. Soon, I will need to make a list to keep up with where all of my lists are. WOW, moving with 2 kids is for the birds...Not for people who need SLEEP!!
Oh well, this time next week, we will be there, hopefully be unpacked, and hopefully enjoying Knoxville. I'm going to think positively and think that we are going to be adjusting well and having a blast!!
Good night all!

You should be "giddy"! This is God's plan for y'all. So ENJOY! No one will think you are being disloyal at all! You deserve to be excited b/c you are seeing the hand of God move! How thrilling to know that He has a plan for you that is so "visible"...that is an awesome adventure! Sure, we are sad...but that is the selfish side of human-kind...and the maternal/paternal too! That's normal. On the other hand...we are pumped too! How wonderful to see your children grow to become obedient Men & Women of God!!! You will understand that more fully as Ally & Annie Grace grow and follow God's plan as well. Please don't let our feelings, the feelings of the church, friends nor family put a damper on this call!!! God's wisdom is perfect! Enjoy!
Oh, I know God's wisdom is perfect and we are excited. I just don't want people to feel like we are so excited about getting away from here bc that's not it at all. And btw, I'm already praying that God's will is for Ally and Annie Grace to stay close to home FOREVER!! ;-)
