When will I ever learn

So last week we decided we were going to do whatever it took to get moved- meaning, staying up late each night and each day going to work with only 3-4 hours sleep.
The reason we had determined to do this is that Scott and I were both off Friday and Saturday... there was nothing on the schedule for either day so it was truly down time and I was dead-set on enjoying  every second of it after 3 weeks of non-stop activity.
HA! When will I ever learn...... no sleep. Not healthy! What usually comes to most people in the form of common sense comes to me in a "life lesson". What I mean by that is that I usually learn by doing and realizing "hey, that didn't work to well now did it".  
Anyways, the friday and saturday that we were suppose to have free, I ended up sick. I was running a fever friday and saturday and coughing like crazy. I feel like I could break a rib I've been coughing so hard - ouch!
Though it was not the dream weekend I had planned- Scott ended up getting to take some naps and just relax as well! So that was really good- he needed and deserved the rest as much as anyone. 

He takes such good care of me! Not only when Im sick, I am blessed with such a great husband and I thank God for him! He is my world....... as I've said before and I'll say again, I adore my hubby!

Now for all of you who are wondering, we are COMPLETELY moved in, everything is in its place and we are now "at home". Anywhere where Scottie-my-hottie is is my home... I figured that out when the Lord called us to help church plant and leave everything to come to Austin.

Though we were not able to go anywhere for fireworks- we were able to watch about 5 different firework displays from our balcony/balconette window.
And we have actually discovered that we have a really pretty view of the sunset going down each evening. 

I'll check in again soon!

Taylor Update: New Place

                   
So we are officially moved into our new place as of this morning (3 am) our unpacking is complete. 
We do not have wireless in our apt. until this thursday so I thought I would stop by the lounge (wi-fi & coffee anytime-that's my kinda place) and get online to check in with everyone and pay some bills etc. etc. 
When we picked this place to live in - We had our hearts set on being here and it did not look like it was going to happen there for a moment but, we prayed-believed and here we are! I love how the Lord cares about even the smallest of things that we care about -> I was even able to bring my potted plants with me for the balcony (woo-hoo), that really meant a lot to me.

As stated before we are finished unpacking and beginning to feel at home- just a few things left to do is drop a few boxes off at the storage, pick up our bikes at the storage and then come home and hang some towels, sweep and vacuum. After that we will be able to just sit back and enjoy this weekend. Scott and I are both off today and Saturday with nothing on the calendar so, this move could not have worked out better.
Thank you everyone for your prayers as we had our home on the market, transitioned to our new place and everything else in between that all of you help me pray about.

*Thanks also to everyone who helped with our move: you guys will never know how much it meant to me!

Enjoy your 4th, talk to you soon!
