Some might think we are INSANE!!

Hey guys! I hope your week is going well. We found out this weekend that we are going to be moving.  LOL Some of you are probably like uhhh didn't she just move in her house in November? Yeah we did (yep we're crazy). My in-laws are getting transferred to Chicago for my FIL's job. They asked us if we would rent their house from them and we couldn't refuse. The house is bigger than the one we are in now (more places for me to decorate) :) and has a pool. Here in AZ a pool is a much needed necessity!!  I am totally excited but dreading the packing and moving YUCK. My hubby says we are like hobo's we move every couple months. Which in some cases is true LOL. We've been together for 6 years, this next move will make number 9 for us! Oh lord I hope we stay here for awhile or I just might not unpack. We should be here for a couple years I'm hoping. I will still be sharing decorating ideas and probably more crafts etc. I will be starting on a few projects for the new house and better yet they said we can paint if we want to. YAY I have never lived anywhere where we were able to paint so I'm gonna need all of your painting suggestions as far as colors and brand go. I will be back soon with some new goodies I bought. Stay tuned.

I am glad you are excited about it! I hate moving...but then again, I am a LOT older than you!!

How exciting! Though moving is never FUN having a bigger place and pool sound so worth it! :)

Congrats! Moving is def worth having a pool to lay beside and a bigger space to decorate ;)

Congrats on moving to the bigger, better home. Can't wait to see pictures. I'm sure you have a ton of plans already on how to make the home more "yours." Thanks for sharing.

Best wishes on your move. I know packing and moving is a lot of work. Take care and one day at a time.Emelia.

We have never moved in the 25 years we have been married...I laugh when I think that we are still in our 'starter home'!! I think it would be exciting! I hope everything goes smoothly!

XO,

I'm sure that pool will make all the trouble so worth it! Wow, nine moves in six years. Get packing!

It will be so much fun to have a pool especially with your hot summers!

Hi Allyson! It sounds like a good move for both you and your in-laws! We are putting our house on the market - again {next week actually} to down-size, which I'm looking forward to. A smaller house and a new decorating project!

Hi Allyson~
Thanks for becoming my newest blog follower! I LOVE your blog and just added you to my blog roll and became your newest follower :)
I can relate to moving. At one point we had lived in 6 different states in 6 years. Sometimes I'd actually have to stop and think where I was! Ha ha! My husband is a pilot and he had to take differnt flying jobs to get experience, so that's why we kept moving. We live in Las Vegas now and have for the past 10 years. Thankfully we don't plan on leaving! We love it here :)

Anyhow, I love your decorating ideas. You are very talented (and so pretty!) and I can't wait to keep coming back to visit.

I hope your weekend is off to a great start!
