And we are back...

Okay, so we kind of disappeared for a while but hopefully we are back.  Things got a little crazy at our house (and still are) but I think we are getting it back under control and want to share with all our friends and family how we are all growing and changing.
Since last we posted, lots of things have happened.  The kids have grown up so much.  Abram is now 7 and getting ready for second grade, Katie is 6 and getting ready for first grade.  Daddy is teaching special needs high school kids and Mommy has moved out of the regular classroom and is teaching reading.  The biggest change for all of us has taken a year of hard work...after spending 35 years in our house it was time for a change.  We decided as a family that we needed something different, so we started packing and sold our house.  There were lots of stumbles along the way but a year, lots of camping out, help and encouragement from lots of loving friends and family, 3 PODS, 3 storage buildings and several relatives' garages later...we are in our new house.
On April 26, with mixed feelings, we said good-bye to an old friend that we had cussed and yelled at but that served us very well.



Since things don't ever work out for us like they are supposed to, we spent the next month with our wonderful and ever so gracious cousins...who might I add thought we were only going to be there a couple of days!
Fast forward to the first week of June and we finally closed on our new house...same town, same basic area, new house for the Fletchers.

 

And so, this is where we start our new adventures.  I hope to keep you all up to date on the goings on at our new abode (did I mention it is a fixer-upper), as well as with our wonderful family, sometimes known around here at Team Fletcher because we all work so much better when we work together like a team.  Go TEAM FLETCHER!
