s u r p r i s e ! !
i had put out on instagram that that we had a big surprise and offered up a giveaway to choose a winner who guessed it correctly….and the guesses were hilarious! from another baby {impossible unless God has other plans ;)} to fostering to the ellen show and a big collaboration {y’all are so supportive}…. so many things on the bucket list but!!
we. are. MOVING!!!
we 100% were NOT in the market to buy a house and the last thing on our mind was selling our property to move {we’ve actually been renovating and had plans to do a big addition!!}, but, when our dream home {that zach helped build!!} became available, it was clear god was making the path for us. with a whoooole lot of praying and a big leap of faith, we decided to jump on the opportunity!
that being said, things have been way crazy over here! putting your house on the market unexpectedly with 4 kids 4 and under has been no easy task and life has thrown some curveballs along the way but we’re trusting that this is where the Lord is leading us and we’re beyond excited for what’s in store!
the original plan for our big announcement was going to be with our pond at the new house but with a slight pushback in dates we weren’t able to be there just yet! if you’ve been around for any length of time you know my love for kortni jeane and i was super excited to team up with them and their new line for our big announcement… probably my favorite yet!!! since zach got his first pair of swim trunks at the beginning of summer {i always purchase at the BOGO sale!!} he has no problem being included in these matching suits…he says they’re the most comfortable swim trunks he’s ever owned!!!
so many details to come and i promise i’ll get there…but for now, i have a million boxes to pack, a house to keep crazy clean and all. the. things!
this is our first move with kids {and first time selling!!} so PLEASE help a mama out and give me all the moving advice!!!
all i have to say is holy moly thank GOD for great realtors!!
here’s to new memories and a whole lot of coffee!

How exciting?! Wishing you guys all the best!!
A brand new chapter for all of you! Congratulations ❤️🐝👱🏻♀️🐰🐾
I’m a realtor in idaho and the biggest stress I have seen my clients go through are:
1. Getting all items out of the house in one big trip.
2. Cleaning the home after you move out.
I offer my clients $500 towards a professional cleaning (before listing and once moved out, $500 usually covers both) and I highly recommend a moving company. If my clients do both, it’s so much smoother and less stress for them!
Congrats!!
Pack seasonal items that you know you will not be using anytime soon, start packing garage/shed. Declutter – go through items you haven’t used in a long time, throw out (donate) old clothing etc
