Growing up...

Well as it goes, the grass isnt always greener on the other side!! Adam and I are very grateful for everything we have been blessed with over the past 6 months to year and a half (our restored health, our education, our wonderful jobs, and family), but life sure does get more complicated as you grow up. We are in the middle of buying our first home and are totally excited to have our own place and to not hear our neighbors snoring at night!!! Again, we are so thankful for the opportunity and the means to take this big step...but the more we talk the more it seems like this is just the tip of the iceburg. We have been determining what we need for the house, what improvements we want to make, and when we are going to do all this fun stuff. We are also wanting a boat and we know that the corolla wont last forever. It has been so crazy trying to figure out when all this stuff can realistically happen. It just seems like when we were still in school all this stuff wasnt a problem...mainly because we knew it couldnt happen while we were still in school. Now that we are in the real world with wonderful jobs, we are in a different mind set (there's always new stuff we are adding to our "want" list).... we just have to remember to take everything in stride!!! It has been so excited but so frustrating at the same time...tips anybody?

And I know I have been bad about blogging...I will be updating my blog shortly.
