Iknow that no one reads this blog anymore and I’m totally cool with that. But I am sersiously going to be back in full force for 2013.
This is for my kids really. The reason I started a blog. To put into book form for them to have the memories of their awesome childhood.
So there.
Where to start?
- We decided to put our house on the market and maybe build or maybe buy. I found a house I love with a killer backyard but it will probably be off the market by the time we get our house on the market.
- Getting your house ready to sell sucks ass. I always thought I was a tidy person. Well, I am not. We are dirty, filthy, sloth pigs. Lucky for me, I have a housekeeper who will be making some serious cash cleaning. I can’t do it. I won’t have any fight left after all of the purging and packing that is going on up in here.
- If anyone has any tips on getting a house ready to sell. Please pass on.
- Tessie Mayes just discovered that fish sticks were made with fish.
- True convo:
TM: You’re not having fish sticks, Bram?
B: No, I don’t like fish.
TM: There isn’t fish in fishsticks.
(Bram’s face was priceless here. Confused and a little sad.)
B: Ummmm, they are called fish sticks for a reason. They are made with fish. What do you think they are made with?
TM: (blank stare)
- So yeah, I’m really glad she’s pretty.
- Another convo that must get on the blog because it is too good to forget:
Me: When we get a new house, what color do y’all want your rooms?
B: Turquoise.
Me: Really? Turquoise?
B: Yes. I like blue, I like green, and I like the ocean. And turquoise is kind of like all of those.
Hubs: Turqouise is a girl color.
B: Dad, colors don’t know gender.
- Seriously. Kid is smart.
- I can’t believe I spelled turquoise right the first time.
- I love working. I do. It is kind of annoying to work with family. BUT I get to be with my kids, stay at home if I need to, I can’t get fired and I get paid. Win.
That is all I have for today.
This is going to be a great year!

I know what you mean…I haven’t posted anything since before Thanksgiving but I really need to get back in gear! Moving, really? I love your house. We won’t be moving anytime soon! You could mix turquoise with gray or navy and that would look great! Your kids are growing up so fast…I haven’t seen them since Bryan’s wedding, I think. Can’t wait for more updates! Love y’all!
Even though I don’t blog anymore I miss reading yours! Love your kids!!!
Yay, Coco! Been missing you so much here. I can’t believe you’re selling. Your house is so precious. I can’t wait to hear about the plans. We need a wine chat soon! We’re on the same work schedule now…..only during school hours. Call me!
I think Casey and I are the only ones of the original crew that blog regular anymore 🙁 Sara posts every now and then but I miss all of you gals!!!!
Welcome back! Love, love, love the fishsticks story!
Our house has been on the market for seven long months and it completely sucks ass! There is nothing fun about it. Best of luck to you and please keep us posted!
Hi!!! Welcome back!!! OK, on getting house ready…we rented a storage unit and put crap in it to make our house look bigger by getting stuff out of it. It is a small price to pay but worth it.
Of course Bram wants a turquoise room. A&J would be so proud.
I am glad that you are blogging again!
Your family is so cute and your kids are getting so big! TM looks like a woman in that picture!
I have no tips for selling houses, sorry. The mere thought makes me want to curll up in a ball in the corner.
