Last Wednesday Blake and I went and looked at a 3 bed 2 1/2 bath town home up in the Santa Clara area. We liked it quite a bit, all the walls were freshly painted (not white!) and the kitchen was just refinished with new cabinets, wood floor and new tile. All the bedrooms are located upstairs and the family, dining, laundry, and kitchen are downstairs. It's the perfect layout. One of the only problems was the fact that the Landlords didn't want to have any pets in the house. Blake and I were pretty bummed at first but when we showed the landlord a picture of our Fox Linda said she would be allowed and Blake and I could move in the following day!
Thursday, Blake and I gave our notice and started packing. Friday, Scott and Marc came over and helped with all the big furniture (the stuff my whimpy arms can't move lol). Later that night Missy, Nessa, and my FOXIE showed up in town! Blake and I called it a night at Pine Valley and headed to our new humble abode :)
Missy and Ness were only able to be here until Monday but they helped loads and we had fun. Antique shopping, consignment shopping, Amanda D and her brother Thomas came over Sunday and we had dinner and watched the superbowl. My family is hilarious and it's always a good time when they visit! We were sad to say good bye but I know we'll be seeing them soon, so until then sistas! I love you girls!!!
Since then there has been a lot of packing, moving, unpacking, playing, putting away. packing, moving, packing, etc, etc... Now we're out of the Pine Valley completely and nestled into our new place. Being here is amazing! Most mornings go like this; wake up with the Fox at the foot of our bed, or next to Blakes face lol, go clean the back, come home to our over the top excited pup, eat some breakfast, then we bundle up and head out on a wonderful morning walk on the trail right behind our place! The trail is pretty cool, it's right next to a stream and some mornings Blake and I get to watch ducks and our friend little Beaver friend work on his house. Then we come home eat some doughnuts and play with Foxie until work. :)
Foxie is such a bright light in our life. It's always nice to come home from an exhausting day of work to a little puppy that literally freaks out for 20 minutes by the fact that 'you're home and it's time to snuggle!' She runs in a billion circles around you and her tail wags non stop. She makes Blake and I laugh constantly! haha She is such a great little addition to our family.
Now that we have our Fox back our next step is... college!! And boy let me tell ya... Filling out fafsa papers is noooo fun! But we WILL get it done and we WILL start college this year! **woot woot!!**
But until then I have a lot more unpacking to do and work to get ready for. Don't worry folks, I'll post pictures soon!
xoxo,
Mrs. Thompson
