Big Changes in our Home....

No, I am not pregnant. Heaven help us all! A couple weeks ago Gavin was approached by his Ex-wife about moving to South Carolina with the children. Any typical day Gavin would let her make her argument, thank her for sharing her thoughts and say absolutely NOT!

Well, she must have caught Gavin on a good day. OK so it wasn't quite like that. I had been up to Utah during that week. I needed a "break" from reality. As most of you know the situation in Arizona gets a little hotter than I would like it to be. I was able to spend some time with my family and some time at the temple. I love going to the temple because for a brief moment I am taken out of the hustle and bustle of the World and have complete peace. Anyways, to make a long story short it started to make Gavin and I think about what we wanted for our future. The next day the phone call came and it happened to align with some of the plans that we were thinking. It was crazy but it all made sense. Gavin was torn because he as the Father, wants what is best for his kids. So after a lot of soul searching, and spending his own time in the temple came to the realization that the kids would be OK whether they stayed or went.

Now that's after the negotiating of course. And that came today. We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. I am hoping that this will strengthen my relationship with Andrea for the sake of the children. There is nothing I've wanted more than just that from day one. Unfortunately it takes us living in two different states to make that happen.

Anyways, I have a feeling my house will be staying a little cleaner and I will have to buy less clothes! Holy Cow, clothing SIX kids gets expensive! With that being said, my heart is filled with sadness as I think about how much I am going to miss those three little munchkins!

So here's the plan....Gavin is going to "try" to transfer to BYU. We will live with my awesome parents for the remaining two years and then our ultimate goal is to move back to the GREAT STATE OF TEXAS! I miss it so very much, Gavin loves it and we would be close to his family as his brother and sister both live in Houston. And if we go that would seal the deal for Gavin's parents and they would head that way also.

Cross your fingers folks! We have a bumpy road ahead of us!

Happy Birthday Liam!!!!

I can't believe that Liam turns 10 today! Holy Cow, where has time gone???? It was just yesterday that he came and snuggled up to me for the very first time when he was just turning 5!!!! I count my blessings every day to have such great kids. We are so glad you are a part of our family Liam! We love you so very much!!!!
