Back to the world of blogging! Ahh...feels so good typing. So we have had a lot of changes in our lives since I last posted on our old blog. For starters our princess was diagnosed with diabetes on 2/18/11! Yeah big lifestyle adjustments there. In September of 2011 we decided to pack our clothes and move 610 miles from the only home our kids had known. Sam couldn't find work in Louisiana so to Jal, New Mexico we came. We got here on a Friday morning. That following Monday Sam had found and a job, and income has been steady every since. Such a blessing!! Our kids have somewhat adjusted to their new lives. Well lets just say they have accepted the fact that this is home now. We still get the occasional meltdowns. Kobie only has his when he is mad at me. Morgan on the other hand has them quite often still. Especially at bedtime. It was weird to go from trees, dirt roads, and a huge lake....to pavements, sidewalks, no trees , and a lake that would be called a pond where we are from. On the upside we are about 2 minutes from the stores, post office, etc. School is currently 3 blocks a way, but we will be moving soon, and will be even closer to it. We have parks, a swimming pool at the high school and lots of different sports that my kids would have never got the opportunity to play in our old hometown! Even though we miss our family dearly this move was the best decision we made for our kids, and ourselves! So now that we are caught up on our current situations in the Mitchell household I guess its time for me to get off here and finish supper! :)
