What!!!

Well its about time I made it official and let everyone know! WE ARE NOT MOVING!! The following things took place when we found out we were going to move:

  • put the house on the market
  • I turned in my notice to work that I would be leaving end of Feb (and we hired someone)
  • Contacted a realtor and begin looking at homes in Colorado
  • My husband official turned in his notice to Scientific Drilling and left for Colorado
  • Cleaned my house like crazy and had an enormous garage sale!
  • Begin telling everyone they better make vacations plans to our house!
Now you ask..what now? Well during the time Ronnie was in Colorado and 14 hours away from his family he started to question rather it was the right thing to do..  Was move his family 14hrs away from everyone they know and start a new life in CO really worth all of this??.. In the meantime I began having many meltdowns..Which I kept to myself! I honestly didn't want to tell him how scared I was because at the same time I was so proud of him for taking such a leap of faith! Well about 10:00pm on a Monday night we both decided this was not what we needing to be doing.  Its like God actually spoke and said "rethink this!" haha  So the very next morning Ronnie drove home! We had to keep it a secret for a while till he got home and we really knew we were making the right decision. 

What do kids do when they are in question "turn to their parents".. With great support, many prayers, and endless conversations we made the decision to not move.. But what would we do! I had already quit my job and so did he! A few days had passed and Ronnie decided to contact his former company.. lets just say his old boss jumped for joy when he found out Ronnie wasn't leaving.  WHAT A HUGE RELIEF!!  Not only did they except him back with open arms but with more pay!! I Love how God works! Soooo long story short.. :)  I still get to be a stay at home Mom started February 29th.. I can't tell you how excited I am about this.. yes the nails, hair, and endless online shopping might have to go but the important thing is I get to be with my girls and they don't get to have an overstressed mamma all the time! We are taking the house off the market for now and will eventually rethink moving, possibly to Mansfield!! So moral to the story.. never forget that God is in control and things could take a turn any minute! We couldn't be happier with our new journey!
