What a peaceful scene. Sharon, just wait until I get a better camera ;) Drum roll please….we finally found a house. Unfortunately it is not what we had planned. We decided after 7 months of looking to purchase a home to move into base housing. The housing market in AK is more expensive than our 1 income family wants to spend at this point. We were offered a great 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 3 story home on base. It has a huge basement; half of which is finished and will work PERFECT as a scrapbooking/homeschooling area. We moved in Dec 10, 2007. So we officially did 23 months of living in the RV. Mikaela will not allow us to claim 2 years, I am corrected each time I say 2 years.
The kids are doing great and ready to have some space to move around without bumping into something or someone. We are going from 200 sq ft of living space to 2200 sq ft. So the search is on for furniture. We gave EVERYTHING away when we moved into the RV. I am also excited to have indoor plumbing again.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s which causes hypothyroid. Lucky me!! I have learned that if you have a family member diagnosed with hypothyroid you have a 50% chance of being hypo as well. My father is hypo, and both my grandparents and great-grandparents and who knows, I could have other family members but they refuse to seek medical help. Stupid stubborn family members! Good thing I am not related :) If you have family members who are currently taking a thyroid replacement, please get checked.

You know, Cindy has thyroid problems too. I had my thyroid levels checked last year and they were fine. It's amazing how many people have it though. Take care you guys! Glad to see new posts on here. Thought you guys had disappeared into the wilderness up there.
Jill, Several fans were asking about you in the store this week. Everyone wants to know if you are still RVing and how you are doing. We miss you around here.
