Moving Weekend Part 2 & "closing day"...posted months later....

Well friends....it was a bittersweet weekend at Priddy Ranch and Priddy Ranch 2 -this is what I call the Sallee home - I have to name them, because I kind of have 2 homes currently. You see, we were supposed to close on the Sallee House today. On one hand I am so thankful we get to spend another Christmas in our first home....on the other, we are spending another month in our home.....listing again, painting, updating, and ready for showing EVERYDAY. There could be worse things, I could be sick, I could be homeless, I could be hungry, things could be all together worse but they aren't. I am blessed with a roof over my head, a warm bed, we get to spend our 6th Christmas together in our first home, and it's 6:40 PM on a Monday night and I have my feet up blogging. I should be packing, cleaning, decorating, or even doing push ups, but instead I am enjoying every minute of the life God has blessed me with and sharing my story with all of you!

Since my last post, we have been to a ring dunk in College Station, proud to say Landon, my brother, won his dunk....yes, in a strange way we are proud of this accomplishment....he gets it from my Mother! We celebrated Thanksgiving on the Ranch and moved home my Christmas decorations to "stage" the house. Don't tell Matt but I am sure that 2 (actual and 4 possible) Christmas trees and 4 Christmas boxes were not necessarily needed for the "staging" of the home but THIS GIRL NEEDED THEM (and I am sad I left some in the sea containers)!

Who knows what else happened this eventful week in November...it's February and I just found this saved draft...so you are welcome and stay tuned.....

What a difference a year makes.......or 2.....

Hi, yes I know I haven't blogged in over a year....we have had quite the year!!!! It has been a whirlwind that includes many wonderful stories I plan to share with you all, including; digging post holes, working cattle, building our house, pregnancies, engagements, moving permanently to the ranch, wrangling baby bunnies, and so much more.....but today will be a little different. Typically this blog is a silly, light-hearted story of a girl who is learning and loving the transition to moving to Priddy Ranch off some highway in Texas but today I wanted to share what this last year has brought to my family, my life, my story. I debated on writing this post but after many prayers (and reluctance of stepping out of my comfort zone) ...here it is. The way I see it if this helps just one family, just one woman, just one man....it did it's purpose! {Confession: I started this post at least 9 months ago & I am just now finishing it - see I told you it has been har...

Just another Monday afternoon......

Many things have changed since my last blog post. We had our beautiful baby boy, Rhett James, on April 14, 2016 at 4:33 pm. He is full of life, loves dancing, and is obsessed with cows, horses, and TRACTORS! He just turned 1 and we are loving life with him. He keeps us moving and he is ALL BOY! Birthday! First birthday party Since having our Rhett boy, more than a few things have changed in our life. I made the very difficult decision to stay home with him and no longer "work in town". It has been challenging, fun, exhausting, and very different for this girl. I miss my work as a physical therapist but I am so grateful to have this opportunity to stay home with Rhett as he grows and learns. That being said, today would not have happened for us if I did "work in town" (again, very thankful). A typical Monday for me includes picking food off of my dog (Rhett likes to "share"), playing with tractors in the floor, and cleaning up a...

The Red Couch....

Moving became real this weekend, not when all my boxes were loaded on the truck, not when my house was covered in tape and dust, and the shop was a mess....nope, it was real when we moved out the "red couch". You see, the "red couch"....it has been with me everywhere since I moved out of my childhood home in April of 2005. That couch moved into my first apartment with my two best girlfriends, Shauna and Brooke, who both have the most beautiful 1 year olds now...how did that happen? Opps, I digress. So back to the couch, it was my first official "big girl" purchase and it has moved from Bentwood to Lubbock to Mertzon, and now to a sea container in Talpa, Texas! I thought I was the only one so attached to my red couch, until this weekend. Duke has been very confused during this packing and moving process but quietly sat back and let it happen until the RED COUCH was moved outside to the trailer! ...
