packing and moving and end of school oh my!

the last few weeks and been a bit of a blur.  after a solid month of packing up our house into pods, storage units and any free space in my parents' house we were all exhausted.  and we still had 3 weeks left of school to get through.  and a wedding in dallas to attend and dance our hearts out at.  so to say the least we are beat.

moving out of the old house was a lot more difficult on both the boys than i thought it would be.  the poor kids miss their house terribly.  each one has had a few little meltdowns that have also brought me to tears.  one time brooks was so upset because we didn't have a home anymore.  it's hard to see them so confused.  we take them by the new house several times a week so they can see that we do actually have a home it's just not ready yet.  sometimes i forget they are just six and eight.  thank goodness little shelby has no clue what's going on.  i couldn't handle one more!

what the boys did as we packed up the house

our last family photo on our front steps.  it didn't turn out like i had imagined.  shelby was pushing me away because i wouldn't let her run up and down the ramp to the trailer.  carson was 2.2 seconds away from falling asleep and clearly brooks was not too happy.  andrew and i were flat worn out from moving the majority of our stuff by ourselves.  i never want to move again.  ever.  

and then as if we weren't already tired we still had 3 weeks left of school.  thank goodness we have amazing neighbors who let us basically move in with them so that i could get the boys on their buses so they could get to school.  it's hard to believe the boys are done with 1st grade and kindergarten.  i now have a 2nd adn 1st grader!  

first and last days

the best part of the last few weeks was by far cameron and jay's wedding.  we all flew to dallas to celebrate and had a fantastic time.  the kids were precious and walked down the ailse better than i ever thought possible (believe me, the rehearsal was not good).  all three had a blast dancing the night away, or at least till my parents took them back to the hotel so that mama could have some fun herself! 

the only way to fly with three kids.  thank you flight attendant for the free bottle of adult beverage.

look at my three little angels.  they were precious.

andrew got to walk his mom down and then also walk with his dad and sister.  it was so beautiful.  

so happy for these two.

ah, it never gets old...
