Home Show, Bounce House, & Possible Move...

Hello again! I just laid Avery down for a late nap (more like rest because I hear her in there still) because she was being grumpy. So I have a little time to write. Last weekend was the annual Home Show here in Ardmore where a bunch of neat companies come out & set up booths & advertise their products. Cody's employer (which happens to be his cousin) had a booth set up & so did his dad. Both Saturday & Sunday we were up there- it was a lot of fun. I actually met a lady who sold Scentsy (the wickless candles) & we really hit it off. I ended up purchasing a product from her & glad I did. That night I came home & researched it & ended up buying the starter kit. I am now a Scentsy Consultant! I am pretty excited about it & have been mailing & giving out catalogs today. Last Thursday I started not feeling well, I had a lot of congestion & my chest hurt. I tried to take over the counter medicine & feel better on my own. A week later, I was still not feeling good. I ended up sucking it up & going to the doctor. Good thing, turns out I have a sinus infection, pharyngitis & early bronchitis! I am now on prescription medicine & am hoping to feel 100% soon enough. Today was bounce house day at Hunter's school. I went up there with my mother-in-law & Avery & got to watch Hunter jump around on a few bounce houses! That was a lot of fun! This weekend there is supposed to be some kind of Easter thing at the park, we might go there tonight! If so, I'll post pictures. A few weeks ago, we found out there will be a rent house ready this June in Dickson, about 15-20 minutes East of where we are right now. It is out in "the country" which would be a big change for us- both good & bad. The pros: great school district for Hunter, lots of room for the kids to play (about 1/2 an acre- I know that isn't very much at all, but it is to us), has a pool, right next to family, the master bathroom is to die for!, and there is a storm shelter. The cons: it is a trailer (it's in nice shape, just a few minor updates needed-but a lot different from a brick house like I am used to), it's "out of town"- meaning no quick little trips to the store anymore (good/bad), & the worst part- ANOTHER MOVE! ugh! I am so tired of moving... I really wanted this house to be it for a while. Sometimes God has other plans though... & I think this is one of them. The landlord is very sweet, willing to knock of rent $ in exchange for updates, & I just get this feeling that it's the right thing to do (any advice is welcome). So, in closing, we've had a pretty mellow last few weeks. If we decide to move, we will need to start packing (which I totally dread) but feel it will be worth it. I hope everyone has a great weekend. It's supposed to rain/thunderstorm a little here & I am so excited. I really love storms -not too serious- though :)
