Back At It

Haven't been on here for a long time and boy have things changed. First of all my husband tried applying for a ton of police type jobs. He was a finalist for a correction officer job in Jefferson County, KS and felt really confident about it. So we decided we would move to Kansas. I packed almost the entire house!! and we were set to go besides a few minor things...we didn't have a place to live, neither of us had a job down there but hey we were taking a risk doing this and for some reason thought it would be worth it. We were down there for 2 or 3 weeks and based on our time there and the inability of Colby getting a job we decided to stay living in SD.

Another huge change for us that swayed our decision a lot is the we are having another baby.  This wasn't really a surprise to us. We were trying/wanting to have another baby pretty close to Harp. As of now, I am over half way done and working on getting everything ready for our little guy. I rearranged Harp's room and moved around her clothes. We are almost ready just have to wait for the big arrival now.

So now that we are officially staying in SD, probably forever, we are really settling in. Making our house really feel like a home and like an adult/family home. I stay at home and take care of Harp and the house. My husband works nights at a factory in Brookings. We really wanted him on days but he decided to go back to school to pursue his bachelors degree. He will only have about 2 years before he should finish it up so hopefully working and going to school works out for him. Im not a fan of nights but we will see what we can work out with his school schedule and work schedule.

The small garden we planted this year has been doing pretty well we have a lot of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and potatoes. I am going to try my hand at some canning once we have more of one items to actually do it. We will have to see how that goes for me. I'll have to keep you posted since this is my first time trying canning.

That should probably be all for tonight. Little lady is fast asleep and I should head there soon so Im ready for the day when she gets up tomorrow. Our little 1 year old sure has a lot of energy and I just try to keep up. I'm going to try to be better at writing this. Until next time...
