All moved!


This entry is written by Sandra (Chelle's darling, almost 20 yr. old sister) because Chelle and Shawn don't have a computer, and because I am a younger sister who finds joy in getting into her siblings things (blogs are no exeption). Of course I do have permission from Chelle to write this, so I am not actually intruding into her personal space at all.
Chelle, Shawn, Jonathon, Timothy, BreeAwnnah, Alanna, Amymarie, Ashley, Hiedi, and Tavain moved to their home in Halkins, Texas on Friday, Nov. 23, 2007. It took two trips and a lot of work to get everything to their new house (ok, they still have a whole bunch of stuff that is still at our house here in Jasper, but they MOSTLY got everything moved to their home in Halkins)
As I walked around their home I noticed some things about it that I really liked (and I know Chelle loves)
They have a BIG yard! It has a chicken coop, a tree house, a play house, a pasture, and a fenced in back yard.
It has two large living spaces for everyone to spend time together in (and to drive eachother crazy in)
It is right down the road from a cute, little park.
Mom believes that Chelle, Shawn, and the kid's favorite part about their new home is that it is all theirs. They are now able to have all of their own stuff again and they get to be with Shawn all throughout the week (not just on the weekends).
I miss having Chelle, Shawn and all of the kids here in Jasper with us. Sure it was crazy and loud at times (all the time actually), but I was completely entertained by all of it. I don't know why we even bothered having a T.V. sometimes. Sharing a room with six other girls was like having a slumber party everynight (I don't miss all the snoring though)(every single one of Chelle's girls can snore extremely loud). I have a lot of great stories from this experience and I am really glad that I got to know my oldest sister and her family better.
