Full House!

February is shaping up to be a very exciting upcoming month! Both Vince and I are working on additional education courses, which will keep him busy during his days off from the fire station and mine will required a three day trip away from home for a crazy two day cram session. All in the name of career advancement…right?

Anyways, with all this going on Vince’s grandparents have offered to come down from Ohio for a visit and to help us with the boys. Lifesavers, they are. But during all this my parents have been in the process of selling their home down in south Florida and purchasing a new home in north Florida. Which is very exciting since we’ve already planned a weekend trip to visit the new house in February and they’ve already asked to have Nash for a week towards the end of February as well. But like all things, it never goes without a hitch…my parents original closing date has been pushed back so they will be coming to stay with us for a week until they are ready for closing (which is awesome) except that Vince’s grandparents will be with us as well. Can you say…FULL HOUSE?!?! Or what would be more appropriate is FULL HOUSE and RV! Yep. Our wonderful, God-sent friends are going to let us borrow their beautiful RV for my parents to use while in town since my house is just nowhere near big enough! Truly, our friends are two good to us and we owe them BIG for this one!

To top all that excitement off, Nash’s birthday is February 28^th and we’re having a party for him…can you believe my sweet baby toddler is turning 3 years old?!?! I just want to cry thinking about it. I could not picture my life without him, he is just that missing piece to our family. We’re having a Bob the Builder/Leggo theme party for him at the house, nothing big but just a little something since we did a big party for Mas back in August. He also has his very first Tae Kwon Do evaluation this Thursday to hopefully get him started twice a week in Martial Arts!

Mason has also started back in basketball this past weekend and I must say he already seems to be enjoying it more than he did the last time he played. We realized very quickly that he is very good a defending, we think this will be where he shines. Now that we have the hoop at home, he can practice with my husband…if this damn weather ever gives us a break!

 

On a random side note…this time next year Vince and I will be celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary in Ireland, Germany and Prague!!! Can you tell I’m excited? We’re in planning mode now and I feel like next year will never get here…not that I want it to fly by but this is a trip we’ve been talking about for so long…I am just ready to get this adventure going, just the two of us.
