On December 5th we all hopped in the car and drove from Missouri to Arizona. We got to see Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and finally drove across the Arizonan border.
The drive took us a total of 36 hours and the kids did better than I did. That last 100 miles is the worst!
We stayed in Prescott until December 18th before we ventured down to our new town for the first time. The scenery is beautiful! Mountains in every direction you look, it reminds me a lot of Denver which is AWESOME! I can be home, without being home.
We spent the first day driving around doing all the in processing we needed to sign for a house. we got in the car at 8am and drove around until 3 when we finally got our house! We stood in our empty house amazed at its beauty and all the wonderful space for about 20 minutes before we had to get BACK in the car and drive the 5 hours to Prescott to get out things. We then left the very next morning and drove back down.
Here is our beautiful house! Fort Huachuca knows what they're doing.
We spent our first Christmas in this house with a HUGE REAL! Tree, it looked great. The kids got everything they could ever want, and so did we OUT OF MISSOURI! and into a beautiful home.
Quickly came 2009 and our baby girl Hailey turned 2. My how time flies. We had a fun party with lots of family and a few friends and she blew out her own candle this year.
and soon after that I turned 25! A whole quarter of a century. Its been a good 25 years and I am looking forward to 75 more.
One of my resolutions this year is to keep this thing going! So heres hoping.
until next time.
