Finally. I have a few minutes to get back at this. My last post was in May of last year. That is a long blog hiatus!
Here's a little recap of what has happened since then:
I had my third baby, Maxwell Danger last August, he just turned one. My oldest, Jackson, started kindergarten and will be going into the first grade this year. The biggest change thus far has been our transition out of the army.
Hubby recently got medically discharged from the Army for some combat injuries which led him to not being about to work. It took about a year for the whole thing to transpire and it has certainly been an adjustment. The journey we have been on so far has been quite the adventure.
We decided to try out some work in Denver, CO to ease the transition. We loaded up the van with our things and clan and traveled 1400 miles to Littleton. That in itself was crazy! After a little bit things took a turn for the worse and we had to move back to WA.
In about two days notice I figured out our move back and we had to be homeless for about 3 weeks. Luckily we were able to stay with family, which was so nice...but yikes! Kind of humbling to know you can be homeless without any warning!!!
Eventually we found a PERFECT house right in the neighborhood that allows my kiddos to go to the same schools I went to. Our landlords are pretty amazing. Hubby has LOVED being here to help with the house duties and the kiddos. He plans on getting a degree starting in September!
I have been really into living a natural lifestyle too! Making a lot of household needs like laundry soaps, lotion, medicines. We love eating organic SO much and it has been really nice to get into making healthier choices for our family. Hubby and I are in tune with our "inner hippy" a lot and that's been so fun.
ANYWAY! Now that I've rambled on and on, that's where we are in life. I can't wait to share more "crunchy" stuff with my readers and keep track of all the life changes ahead. So far it has been a crazy ride but I am so thankful for the way our lives after the military has turned out. Every obstacle we have overcome has put us where we are supposed to be today.
Thanks for reading my mini novel! ;)
Until next time~
