THE LUSSIERS ARE MOVING!!

In December I sat my husband down and talked about our quality of life. We have such a wonderful family, but we don't get to spend time with anyone because we are too busy driving around the world. I'm driving about an hour and half in the morning and again in the afternoon to drop off and pick up Claire. I love that she is with both her Grandmothers and I'd continue to drive around the world if I have to. As we talked about the driving situation, I also talked about how much I want to live in a swim and tennis community. You may have read in my earlier blogs about Legacy Park; well, after lots of house visits, we settled on a home in Lullwater.


It's a 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath home. The fifth bedroom is in the finished basement. We are on a small culdesac that is within walking distance to one of the small parks!! Claire loves the new park and she loves playing there.

The house isn't all roses and butterflies, it does need work. The entire interior of the house needs to be painted along with all new flooring. It will need a new deck, light fixtures, and some landscaping. We have a home inspection on friday and I'm excited to see what the results will be.

It is a great house and feels like my home (not that this home doesn't feel like mine, I just spend a good 3 hours in the car and I only sleep here). I can't wait to fix it up and invite everyone over to my house!

Also, if you click on the legacy park link and look at their events, there is something to do every weekend!!! I'm so excited!!!

February LoVe


So I know there are moments in any relationship where you get annoyed by something they do or even angry over something that doesn't make sense. Today, I was driving to Carrollton and I realized that my husband was really wonderful today. He's really wonderful most days, but it really sunk in today. He got up, went to church with us, was wonderful when Claire cried at Church, accompanied me to the grocery store, and took care of Claire while I tended to sorority things. He really is wonderful. Sometimes we get so fixated on the little things (like forgetting to take out the trash or watching the game). It's not about the little things, but about the big things- like really being there for me today and especially for his little girl. I've got a great guy who is also a wonderful daddy!!
