Wow is almost all I can say....I am trying to hang on for this ride called life.
Some days are easier than others. But everyday gives me something new to be grateful for.
I will do my best to give you a brief recap.
The sunsets are incredible..
Eating out at 5 star restaurants
Mexican Hamburgers
And at our 5 star restaurant it started to rain...
And we finally moved into our permanent house. It has taken some time. The first house we signed a contract on we were very excited about, but there were a few things that needed to be fixed before we could move in. One was a window lock above the stove that was broken. So they promised to fix the lock and the leaks and a few other screens and things. But they gave us a key to start moving our fridge and washer and dryer and couch and big stuff. So we bought a couch and 2 TV's and a fridge and washer and dryer. And after we met with the contractor to show him all that needed to be fixed, the next day we went to check on the house and the two TV's were stolen and the window above the stove was wide open. We decided not to take that house, and went on the hunt for another house. Well God had something far better in store for us. Our new house is just one block from the beach and has more room than the last house. We are so much closer to town and its just such a better location all around.
Now getting everything all set up again has been challenging and some days a bit discouraging. We could not get any phone lines because they were all taken, and the other 3 companies we tried to get internet through all said internet would not work this close to the beach or in this neighborhood. But we finally got someone to install an antenna on the top of our roof and we get internet through satellite. They painted all the floors in the house white just before we moved in. But they watered down the paint to make it go further. Well it turned into chalk and as you walk around the house your feet turn white and everything you step on is also white. SO they came in decided to take it all off. Now we have people here taking it all off all day long. But we are still making the best of it and our life has become a lot simpler.
The boys have been setting traps trying to catch iguanas, and the girls have been working on their tans at the beach.
And Austin gets so tuckered out that he can't even stay awake for a 5 minute time out.
Here is a sneak preview of our house...As soon as the floors are finished and I get the curtains made, I will give you a flip video tour.
XoXoO,
Malinda
