House Update...

...1 month, 12 days later and we are finally moving into our new house. It was a rollercoaster but everything ended up working out as we initially planned. We closed on our house in Washington last Thursday and closed on our new house in Rocky Mount yesterday. The seller fought it and tried to pull out of the deal at the closing table but finally decided to sell the dang thang. Thank goodness! So now we have a cleaning crew in there for the next couple of days reversing all the smoke damage that was done due to one heavy smoker. We are due to move in this Saturday!! We've enjoyed staying with my parents this last month and Brent and I both have gotten pretty spoiled. He always has someone to play with and I always have someone to watch him. It's been great but we are excited to finally move into our new house. Pool party at the Cutrell's! (when it warms up ofcourse)

Sunny Florida

One negative part of Brandon's new job is the traveling that is involved. He travels about once a month but it is worth it because he has such flexible hours when he is here. Brent and I were able to benefit from his last business trip to St. Petersburg, Florida because we tagged along and did our own thing. While NC was enjoying 3-6 ft. of snow, we were in sunny Florida! It was cold the first couple of days but warmed up to 70 before we left. The best part of the trip by far was visiting family that we have in Tampa. It was a wonderful trip and we were sad to leave!

Pumpkin was able to enjoy the snow in NC without us!

Brent in the airport waiting for his first flight at almost 5 months old. He did excellent on the airplane and had no idea that he was thousands of feet up in the air.

We went to the Orlando, Florida Temple while we were there. BEAUTIFUL temple!

We also visited the Tampa, FL Aquarium. I've been to some awesome aquariums in NC but this aquarium beat them by a mile.
