So we're NOT moving

After weeks of searching, driving and many many calls we decided that for the 3 of us its just not the right time to move. We wanted to move to be closer to family and friends but nothing seemed to be going our way. Houses that we wanted were way to much or didn't allow pets, we even considered buying but we just aren't in a place to do that right now. We loved a couple of houses but they didn't work out (probably somebody else applied that didn't have pets). Anywho we left LR with bids on 2 different houses, one in the heart of LR and one way out in Ward. We didn't know which one we wanted b/c they both had perks and huge downfalls. We talked about it in on Sunday night and then made the final decision on Monday morning that we didn't want to even know if we got either house, b/c it was best for US if we just stayed put!

Luke was going to lose some hours in school, his work schedule was going to change and pretty much meant with LR traffic he was never going to get to see Belle or me for that matter. What we have in Fayetteville works! his schedule, the drive to and from work and school. We are further than we want to be from family but maybe when all of school is done then we can move closer, til then we are staying where we are comfortable. I was having a hard time letting go of Fayetteville and this home, i mean this is Belle's 1st home, (its a rental so i know we are going to have to move) and everything seemed to be happening to fast and we didn't have another set plan, no other home to look forward to moving into. The move was causing more stress than anything else. I kept looking for gray hairs, and wrinkles. Staying makes sense!

So Razorback sports here we come! and for those of you coming through the 'ville give us a call, we love house guest. and friends that are up here, you didn't get rid of us just yet!

here are a couple pics from packing up and Belle welcoming Luke (and I) home after 4 straight days of being gone!

She loves for her dad to throw her around (flips are the best, but she is going to be way to tall for a gymnast) she is my lil dare devil! but Luke always tells her she can't jump out of a plane like her mom :)

Her favorite place in the whole wide world is on top of her dad's shoulder!

Notice all the boxes int he background, we had the whole living room and garage packed up...but i guess its better than moving a whole house.

She could have played in the box all day! Why is it kids can have all the toys in the world but all they want is the box it comes in. Fun Times!
