So here's the deal...

Ok, it's time to fess up...  Why has it been 10 days since my last post?  Why have the posts grown shorter and more far apart?  Well, as most of you know...the Melders are moving.   It's an exciting move, but it's bittersweet, because let's face it, as this blog proves, Pittsburgh has been a pretty great place for our family.  It'd be a lot easier to leave if we hadn't loved it here.  But we are thankful that we can say we have loved it and we are also hopeful that the next place will be just as great albeit in its own unique ways.  So, where are we going, you ask??  New Hampshire.  My home state.  The Lord has opened the door for us to go home.  It's time and we are excited for this opportunity despite the sadness of leaving this sweet season behind.  

The posts are dwindling because it is unbelievably intense to coordinate, plan and pack up a household of 6 whilst caring for that household (and not to mention when your husband is traveling most of the time).  In addition, it's been harder and harder to stay up on the blogging since adding Jansen and evenmoreso in the last 6 months.  

So, the blog is coming to an end.  Don't worry, there are a few more posts to come.  You know me, I can't finish anything halfway.  Gotta give it my all til the end.  So there will be an epic catchup post.  There will be a sappy goodbye post.  And there will be a post with my info for how to stay up on what the Melders are doing going forward (I'm going to start doing Instagram!). 

Stay tuned for the final posts!
