We're Baaaack

The Dakota O's are once again Southwestern O's. We gave the Midwest a good shot - and even though it was our desire to remain there, it was apparently not in the stars for us. So after our fabulous mini-reunion, Micah took off....and 10 days later (after I packed like a tornado was coming - eh, that means FAST) the boys and I followed (including Milo). 2 days, 1300 miles and 5 states later - we were back. An interesting fact for all of you - the boys and I arrived the exact same date that Micah and I had 9 years ago...weird, huh?

A week and a half later we are pretty much settled into our new (albeit) temporary home. Micah has been working for a few weeks and (gasp!) I will be returning to work next month. My hiatus is over :( Although I am going to miss my time with the boys TERRIBLY (that's the understatement of the year) a mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do....and it really is in the best interest of our family. Luckily we were able to work out our schedules so the boys will only be without us two days a week - they will be in 'school' those days which will be super exciting for them and they will have all kinds of little friends. Let's be honest, I am going to be the one who has the most difficulty adjusting!

Anyhow, that's a quick update from here...I'll try to post pics soon.

Yes, it's been awhile

As most of you know there has been a lot going on in our house....so I have not stopped blogging - I have just been taking a little break. I'll be back soon though, I promise.

Oh, and we had our mini-reunion over the 4th of July and it was AWESOME! We had an action packed weekend and enjoyed every minute with eachother! Thanks to all those who traveled - love to you all:)
