Hmmmm, do I dare say that word?

Having a fun time at the park feeding ducks and fish at a playground here at Troy. 8-11-11

My big 1st grader!

And my baby boy, who isn't a baby anymore. Boo-boo on his head is another whole story itself!

Well the past two weeks I have felt that feeling that has been lost the past 3 months. I feeling of belonging, a settled feeling. A feeling of when I am at our house that it sorta feels like our home. A feeling of contentment. Now after saying all of that I need to say I still miss our old house, old friends, old town & and old familiar things. But I am more open to the thought of trying to find ourselves here. We (Dusty and I) because the kids adapt well to new surroundings, have had a harder time getting situated here at the new park and have wondered at times if we made the right decision. And that comfy feeling of everything is okay goes rolling out the door pretty quick! But in the midst of all of this I am trying my best to make our house a home for us. Gracie starts a new school in a few weeks and I know that will put us back into a slightly normal routine of things. I still wonder at times in the past moves and I should have paid more attention to this but at the same time I sure each move was different....how long does it take you to get "settled" into a new place? That is a hard question! Macon I think was the easiest. Here is harder. But this weekend we are trying a new church and that is where Gracie's new school is at and I have a good feeling about all of this....so here is to meeting new friends and getting "settled"...there I said it!


Field of corn along the way home taking the "back way". The gorgeous clouds in the background remind me of the open skies at Macon.
