Way too long!

The last three months have been some of the craziest of our lives!  So here is a brief summary:
Our fun adventure turned into a crazy one. We decided to buy a house but we were on a tight time schedule to find one before our summer housing ran out.  We ended up living in 5 different places! The kids and I were in 3 states and spent 5 weeks apart from Carson.  We were so blessed to have generous friends and family take us in as we worked hard to find a place to live for our family.  The second house we put an offer on stuck and we moved in over three months after moving out of our rental.  In the course of that time, I went to Orlando to teach a Culinary Summer Camp Class, and to Alabama to be there for my Grammy as she had surgery (and then got an infection). Spent some relaxing days at a mountain cabin, and stayed with some friend here in Clemson for the final stretch.  Looking back God truly went ahead of us to prepare a way.
The kids did great with all of the transition, but are a little bit clingy to me still.  They were so happy the day we moved into our house. It's amazing that at such a young age they seemed to relax and know that they were home.  They just ran (or crawled) from room to room laughing and screaming.
We are still unpacking boxes, but are finally feeling like we are starting to get settled.  It feels nice to own our home and have our family all back together again!
The OCD in me wants to put all of the following posts in order, but I'm going to just be lucky to get them posted. Bear with me while I get caught up.
