Leaving California

We have a little bit of packing left and then we’ll be hitting the road.  Our rental truck is a 22′ Penske.  It’s an International diesel with only 4500 miles on it.  Oh, it has a CD player!  We’ll see everyone in a few days…in Wisconsin.

Hey everyone- just added a couple of new pictures of the girls. I’m in the process of trying to organize the pictures into different groups so they will be easier to view and know when there are new ones.

Justin’s trip to WI went great and we will be on our way there in just a few weeks. He will be leaving on May 19th and driving with his Dad and Ben, the girls and I will be flying sometime after that we have not decided which day just yet. I can’t believe how quickly it is happening but we are very excited. We will keep you up to date as things happen!

Justin and Maggie come home today- YEAH!!! It has been quiet in our house. They have had a great trip and Justin got everything with his job settled- and is very happy with the results. And as you can see he found us a house to live in, we will be renting the bottom floor of this house. It will be getting a new inside paint job before we move in, and definitely has more room than we have now. The location of the house is perfect only a mile away from the gym, and right near downtown Hartland. So life will be a little crazy for the next month but worth it in the end.

Today is Liesie’s 19th Birthday- Happy Birthday!!!

Sisters!!!

Justin and Maggie are off to Wisconsin, I just dropped them off at the airport. It should be a great weekend with Grandma & Grandpa, Maggie was very excited to go on the airplane. Justin will be busy with the job interview and house hunting- wish us luck. Layla and I will be home trying to start packing- and we will miss Daddy and Maggie. The house already seems very quiet!

Coming Home to Look for a House

Maggie and I will be flying to Wisconsin over the weekend to look for a home.  We have a couple of things to do during our trip.  I have a job interview at a great gym in the Milwaukee area, and we need to look for a place to live.

Since the gym I am applying at has 3 facilities, we really need to find out what is going on there first.  My work location will definitely affect our housing situation.  Right now, we are thinking of the Hartland area.  Hartland is about an hour north of Union Grove.  Looks like a great place.

Hopefully we will be able to find an actual house to rent (instead of an apartment).  We would like to get a 2 or 3 bedroom place with a basement.  We need the extra room for our business, Leotard Crazy.  If we have to rent an apartment, it will have to be a 3 bedroom.

Wish us luck.
