Silver and Gold....

I have been eager to move for some time now, I have been chomping at the bit to become a part of something new. A new small group, a new church, a new aerobics class I just want some newness (word?)!!! It dawned on me these past two weeks that I am going to MISS the heck out of all of my girlfriends here in Conroe! Almost five years of girls nights...ten years of being a member at the Gold's Gym on 105, and being part of a fabulous church that I know and love the members of. It's so surreal...I am leaving it ALL behind. I will say however, that I am eager to start my adventure with Mr. Frankhouser and become part of a community in which we are both involved in:) Small groups, girls nights, and a new gym are all in my future...Date nights with Brandon in our new town...it seems so exciting but at times lonely.. I hope I like people there..and better yet I hope they like me!! :/ I also hope my friends come to visit so I can be the hostess with the mostess and introduce all my NEW pinterest recipe's that I am dying to try in my fabulous new kitchen! Time seems to move by so fast these days.. It seems that just yesterday I was crying over not having a plan for the future and now we are closing on our beautiful new house this coming Tuesday. I am so unbelievably proud of Brandon not only is he a wonderful support system for me..and my anxiety..lol but he has worked his butt off to provide this wonderful future for us.. It really is hard to believe that a little over a year ago he was jobless and worrying about the outcome of his future. We have prayed and believed and prayed and believed until we were blue in the face and then we just prayed some more. Things really do work out for the best when you just have faith and a positive attitude. I am so grateful for the things God has done in my life and I am very excited for this next year!!!

I so love this man :) This was last year right after we were engaged!

It's happening...

And its happening FAST

days, weeks, no MONTHS of waiting, wishing, hoping, praying. and crying for an answer to our future we finally have one.

ITS MOVING TIME!!!!

Brandon and I are packing our bags and saying goodbye to the good ole' Conroe, Texas. This is a place where my family has resided for over 45 years. We are longtime conronians (SP*) and I will say that I am going to miss it. I have all of my family here and I have made almost ALL of my friends here. This is going to be a huge change for me but I think I am  going to like it :) Where are we moving you ask?? We are going to San Antonio, Texas!!!! At first I was hesitant to tell people where we were going because I was getting a lot of negative feedback. Like "Ew what are you going to do there?"-well LIVE of course you MO MO.  Or another one " HAVE FUN (totally sarcastic voice)"...these responses irritated me because San Antonio has actually GROWN a TON!!!! I can't wait to be apart of the San Antonio community:) Our neighborhood is gated with a pool AND next to the TPC golf community which Brandon is absolutely thrilled about!! We will be closing on our new home September 3 and moving that week.. its so surreal to be moving this fast when just two weeks ago I was unsure about our future and what we would be doing with our lives....now I'm just trying not to blink :)

some pictures of our NEW HOUSE!

PS: ignore the paint we are having the entire house REPAINTED

These are just a FEW of the many pictures I took.. I want to do a before/after segment after I fix it all up Callie girl style!!!! I am SO loving the Formal/Casual Living situation.. I think I know the perfect spot for our black baby grand piano :p
