Hi. I am here.

Well I was going to wait to post when I had some pics but I can't find my usb cord for my camera so oh well.
Well I think everyone knows we have made it home to AZ. It was such a whirlwind move for us. We literally only had a week of knowing we were for sure moving, before Chuck had to be here to start his new job. It was that fast. In his line of work you don't put in a two week notice and the new job wanted him right away. They even hired him without a face to face interview, Chuck is amazing that way, and when he got here he was even more liked. For a brief second we were scared a little because the branch he was supposed to get fell through, but luckily because the already like him so much they gave him a even more awesome branch opportunity. We are very blessed so far. I still have no job, but there is just way too much going on. I did get the kids into school, we are staying with my mom for a month or so and it was a little difficult getting them into school but I did it!
Oh and so Christmas is like what 2 days away...I have nothing ready. It has been really hard for us to do any shopping and we had decided to wait till we got here so my kids wouldn't see anything on our trip here, there was no way to hide it in the car. So I am going a little crazy, I even have to get stockings because ours are in storage for the month. I am although very thankful to be with my family for Christmas, it has been a couple of years since I had spent a holiday with them so it shall be great!
Well after Christmas we are focusing our attention on finding our own place. If you know of any great places for lease in Surprise let us know, we are getting a little desperate.
Just teasing Mom, I love staying with you and appreciate all your help!!

Mini Update

Looks like we will be making the BIG Move to AZ next week.
Chuck got an offer with a company and they want him to start like ASAP. So we are gonna start packing this weekend for Thanksgiving. I am a little crazed and don't know where to start. It's like we wanted this for so long and now that it is happening I am just at a stand still. I just want to close my eyes and when I open them everything will be packed and on its way.
Well more updates to come!

I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow!!!
Eat. watch football. surround yourselves with family and friends. Nap
Nothing better than this Holiday!
I love Thanksgiving!!! And I truelly have so much to be thankful for this year!!

Fun at a Wedding

While we were in AZ, and the main reason we were there we had the pleasure of attending a great wedding. It was in Chandler at Villa Sienna. It was so beautiful there and perfect setting for a fall wedding. Dinner was great, dancing was good and spending time with friends was awesome. Here are a few pics from the night.

Renasaince Festival

We visited Chuck's Uncle at the festival in Charlotte, NC last weekend. It was a fast trip and we had a lot of fun playing around. We did get a little lost on the way home but it made it fun for me and Chuck. We have to go through all these little old towns. And it was so dark!!

Here are some pics:

Apple Picking & Pumpkin Patch
