It's been a whirlwind of fun for us the past few weeks for sure! I wanted to update all on what is going on and all the crazy fun changes!
It started with some danger in our old neighborhood. We loved our old house and enjoyed where we lived but over the past six months or so, things got kinda scary. Lots of shootings and police-involved activity. Now, I'm not easy to scare in that respect, but when we were stuck inside the house and couldn't leave because of a shooting that required multiple ambulances, firetrucks, and police cars (some actually parked in our driveway) that was the last straw. It felt unwise to continue to live there.

So we started looking and we walked through one house (yes, ONE!) and fell in love. Oh my gosh, it was crazy how amazing the house was and I was convinced there was no way we'd get it. It felt like far more than we deserved. But we persisted and within a month, we were moved in! And on top of getting to live in a MUCH safer space, we live near horse ranches (hello Oklahoma girl) and we are saving money by having our offices in our house as well as having a renter. I mean, it's just amazing. We are so grateful for the peace of mind and the fun and joy this house offers. So sorry for the terrible quality video, my tech support/film maker is out of town right now so this is what we get.
We also submitted {nearly} all of our paperwork to legally finalize our match with a certain little one and the clock has started for us to for real get to bring that one home. I'm so, so excited. And terrified that we forgot some major piece of paperwork or won't have the funds to finalize things. Moving so suddenly put a huge wrench in our finances but we took a giant leap of faith and felt that it was what was best for our family's future. But yikes, faith is freaking scary. We are over halfway to our fundraising goal but there are big chunks of change due in the next few weeks so if you're in need of any prints already in my shop or anything custom made, now's the time to order!

Let's get this babe home to us!
So that's where we're at in our journey. So many details to continue to stay on top of but there's just so much more swimming to be done (not so much by C, though. anyone want to come teach him what he refuses to learn from me!?)!
