5,4,3,2,1 .........the count down begins!

Still no pictures... but they will be coming! Because in just 5 days (yes less than 1 week) we will have a home... complete with walls and carpet and everything, and it will be ours! Tonight was so fun. We took the kids over into the house for the first time. You would have thought we were heading into Disneyland! (They were so excited at dinner that I had to keep reminding them to eat!) I have to admit.. I too was so excited to go to the house and see it again! The Robertson's, the sweet couple who we are staying with, went with us.
Can I just say that the Robertson's are earning their wings? They are so wonderful! They have opened their doors and even are kind when the kids "slam" the doors! They have a beautiful home here in Idaho, and we appreciate their kindness so much. This is one of the "pay it forward" moments in my life. When someone does something so - out of the ordinary- something, so incredibly kind and thoughtful, that I wish that I could return the favor... and I will someday, when I "pay it forward" to someone else.
I remember when I was SUPER sick with pregnancy, and my cute neighbor Stacey did such nice things for me, (as well as other wonderful friends,) services which I wanted to return, and Stacey said just "pay it forward." So I will. It is so much easier to be the pay-er than the pay-ee. I look forward to helping someone else someday!
Well, keep checking in with us... because next week this blog is going to be FULL of pictures and fun! Until then.. count along with me.... HEE HEE!!
