I had to throw in a picture of Sadie in her Easter Dress since I didn't get one in last week. And now I'll move on...
Okay so life in the last week went about like this.... Starting a week ago Monday I started getting the house ready for our company Thursday night (Eli's graduation was Friday the 17th) We got a call Tuesday morning around sevenish... I'm still in bed and groggy.. from a company called PIKE that wanted Eli to come and work for them as soon as possible in Tennessee. Of course he said we'd have to talk about it and call them back. After lots of praying and pondering we called as soon as we could Thursday morning and told them he would be there by Monday the 27th. Thursday night some of Eli's family came up and stayed the night. Friday before we left for graduation we got packed what we could and then did a little more that night after my parents and my sister Brooke and her boys came. Saturday by noon we were finished. Had lunch in the park and sent everyone on there way. Sunday after the carpet cleaners came Eli and I headed back to Preston. He leaves tomorrow morning for Tennessee and will go out and see how the job is going, get a few things settled, and find our family a little place to live. Sadie and I will join him in about a month or so. Who ever says life can't change much in a week has noooo idea... everything can change with one phone call. Seriously getting packed and moved in 1 1/2 days What do people do without family????????????????????
They fed us at the lineman rodeo before the graduation....
Can anyone say Ketchup?!
Sadie wearing Daddy's hard hat.
Eli was the guy in his crew that did the single cross arm change out. He had the 2nd fastest time and was only off by seconds.
Just watching him climb makes me tired.
Getting his certificate. He was also nominated for the Eagle Award which is the highest award his school offers. It covers everything from attitude, skill, and academics. We are so proud of him for all of the time and hard work he put into his schooling, and are so glad he is done!
Our little family.

I sell it and just sent it out the Tennessee with my mom and no one knows about it there so if you want information on starting a bussiness and making a little money on the side but still being able to stay home with your kids let me know.You could do awesome selling it there.
