Life.

With just a few more weeks before Scott returns home I have been trying to get everything in order for out trip home to Texas and for our Move to Texas when he deploys. We have decided to move what we would not need while we were here once we got back from our visit. I have spent the better part of this past week getting organized and trying to get everything together. We will not be leaving for a few weeks, but I am so glad I did not wait. There is no way I would be able to get everything completed that I want to in a week...or less! It takes a bit of time to get everything for the 3 of us together.
I have been working on a few baby gifts for a few women I know expecting shortly. I am almost done with one of them, I just need to fill it. I forgot how much time they take to make...but I love making them for other people. It is a simple project that just requires a lot of time. I am debating on whether or not to post the pictures of what I have made, I spent a very long time searching for the proper craft foam flesh tone color for the babies, after the first Michael's and only getting a brownish color I was done searching(it had been a LONG day with mr. B-rad.)I am probably being silly about this but I feel weird giving two of the women this baby seeing as they are in a mixed couple...I don't want to come off as if I am pointing that out or something along those lines...plus I don't want any of the mommas to see what it is...until they receive it. I probably still will. I love "crafting". I wish I had more time and SPACE to do it. I have learned, his afternoon naps are perfect for spending a decent amount of time for crafts, morning naps are great for vacuuming, dishes, and basic cleaning, and bed time is perfect for finishing everything else, and getting everything together for the next day.
So much progress has been made, personal & spiritual. I love the feeling of moving forward! I can't wait for Scott to come home from training. I am getting soooo excited for our visit to TEXAS and then the move to Texas. Although that one is a little more bittersweet...since that means Scott will be deployed to Afghanistan...
I know that we are on the right path, this is what we are meant to do, and our Heavenly Father will take of us.
