Hicktown.

(BIG sigh.....)

Where to start? Holy moley.

I live in a very quaint trailer. Let me explain. It has a big deck, an added on laundry room and master bedroom, rock wall in the part of the front, and when I dropped a bottle of opened baby food today it hit 3 walls. Awesome. I feel a little more hickish now that I live there. I'm not sure if it's more hickish or white-trashish (one and the same right?) For those of you who think I'm complaining, I'm not. It's our home. My stuff is there. Brody has half of a bedroom. The stove works. AND it's temporary, it's temporary, it's temporary, it's temporary, it's temporary- repeating it so many times just makes it sound weird.
Brody is LOVING (emphasis on LOVE) being close to all his cousins and grandparents. He's already had a cousin sleep over. I built them an awesome fort to play in- which consumed the entire living/dining/hall way. Another thing that is nice about such a small space is that it is really easy to clean. However, if one thing is out of place it looks like a tornado had a hay-day.
Dotti is 7 months and could care less where we live. She has been sick and finally snapped out of it yesterday. She is laughing and smiling a ton again. Sick babies are quite stressful and hard on a mother's eyes, complexion, patience, emotions, and sleep patterns...but I actually enjoyed waking up with her and taking the time to rock her to sleep. That is part of what being a mom is all about. Am I right, or am I right? I love it.
What's that you ask?
"Where are the darn pictures?" "What's a post without pictures?"
I'll tell ya...it's this. It's me. It's me just talking and telling you how it is. You have an imagination...use it. :)

Whoa attitude. (refer to the part where I had a sick baby and suffered from lack of sleep.)

I hope to post pictures...emphasis on hope.

love from the trailer park,

Tara

Ok....

1st off...I got straightened out a LONG time ago by my Aunt that a 'Trailer' is something you haul BEER and CATTLE in...you my dear live in a 'mobile home':)

2nd...I do not believe that a HICK and WHITE TRASH are one in the same. I would say I am definitely a HICK, but I wouldn't consider myself WHITE TRASH:)

3rd...As the owner of the 'MOBILE HOME PARK' where you reside...I hope you know I found this posting quite funny and hope you don't think I'm being rude:) Happy Adjusting to your temporary, quaint, 'MOBILE HOME':) Glad you guys live here!!! We love you guys!!!

Your post is HILARIOUS!! Every move is always hard and it has to be difficult moving from a larger home to a closet:) Hang in there!! We are so glad that you are closer. You truly "scatter sunshine" everywhere you go and are so much FUN!
