Sorry for the delay...Here's the BIG news....

It's now OFFICIAL....we are moving back to Oklahoma. We are so excited to be rejoining ALL our family and old friends but VERY sad to leave behind the ones we've made here in Texas. I spent the first week after we found out crying myself to sleep at night. Sounds crazy, right? I mean, I'm getting to go back "home", be with all our family, be around my dear friends, and back in a familiar place. Why cry to sleep? It kills me to think about leaving my BEST FRIEND/neighbor. Kristie and I have become as close as two people can get. Our husbands laugh because we can finish each others sentences, we can each only say 1 word and completely know what the other is talking about, we help ourselves in each other houses, we are mothers to ALL our kids. It's going to be SO HARD when the time actually comes and we have to say GOODBYE!! However, to me it won't be a goodbye but a see you later. I know that we will ALWAYS stay close. I have said from the beginning of our friendship that it was a TOTAL GOD thing. He knew just what I needed in a friend when he placed her in my life. Her and the rest of her family will always be dear to us.

We are relocating back to Oklahoma because Hubs took a job there. It's a great job with a great company. I am very excited for him. The beginning of this year has been a VERY tough few months. He had lots going on and needed to get out of the job he was in. After LOTS of prayers, God's timing came perfectly. So now, the fun is beginning with trying to sell our home in a market that is not great. We will begin looking for a house in Oklahoma and pray to be in and settled before school starts back up in August. Madeline will be starting the 2nd grade next year which is very hard to believe. She's pretty nervous about starting a new school, making new friends, leaving her cheer team behind, and essentially starting over for her. Texas is really all she remembers as she was only 2 when we moved here.
Speaking of Madeline, she's been doing great. We have had no major headaches in awhile. (knock on wood) We are to see the neurologist in June to see what he thinks/recommends.
Please be in prayer for our family and we will be separated for a while. Hubs started his job yesterday and will be staying in Oklahoma and the girls and I will be staying in Texas until Madeline finishes school and we sell our house. We got it ready and listed last Tuesday. We've had quite a bit of lookers already. We even had one couple that looked at it twice on Sunday and are currently trying to get pre-approved. Again, praying for God's will and timing. It's hard being away from Hubs and the girls really miss him. Hopefully it won't be too long.
I'll let you know how the process is going.
