We are in! The money funded this morning and we met the agent with keys, garage door openers, and other keys today! What a fun and excessively busy day it was!
My realtor brought her son with her this afternoon and the boys had SO much fun running all over the house! When we first went in Connor took a look around and then yelled, "We have STAIRS!" It was so precious! Joel and Connor and the other little boy had a great time and Ginger got in on the playtime action as well! She ran like a mad dog all over the grass over and over again and had THE best time in her new back yard!
After our realtor and son left, we headed out to mail some documents for our home back in CA and eat some lunch. It was a great lunch and then David headed back to work and the boys and I ran some errands. We had to get the water to the house turned on and it took a bit of doing because I thought I left my wallet back at the house so we drove all the way back there, then back to City Hall. They had a library there and have a summer program with tons of fun things to do for the kids. There was even a puppet area with a theater and the kids had so much fun having me sit and watch them perform with several other boys. These are the moments I am so thankful for the most! Some of the other moms were staring at their phones as their kids did puppet shows, but I kept my phone down and off and watched with awe as Joel and Connor got along, laughed their heads off, and had lit up eyes the entire time as they saw me truly watching them!
After the library we headed over to a snow cone place and it was pretty hot by then so it tasted SO good! Then back to the house to get Ginger and then back to the apartment. By then it was 6 O Clock and I didn't get to go out to another town and find a painter but you know what? I got to watch my kids laugh and play and we got the water turned on....total success of a day! But that is not all! So they have been begging me to go to a movie and there is a theater really close to David's place. So we headed over and watched the move Epic. What a neat movie! I texted David that he could join us after his work class and he was able to make it just after the movie had started. The boys were so happy to have us all there together!
Life is super busy right now. There are about a million things to do a day, but I am so thankful I took the time today to just BE in the moment with my kiddos. I don't regret not getting other stuff done at all. It will all fall into place somehow. Overall I think the kiddos are getting used to getting to bed at about 8-9 PM right now which two hours earlier in CA is their old bed time. I am going to have to work on slowly moving it up, but I am thankful they went to bed with ease tonight! I hope everyone is enjoying their summer night and have wonderful dreams!
