The Crew is on the Move!

 After saying in my last two homes, "this is it, I'm not moving again." I'm not making any declarations this time.

Jeff and I gave it the good college try, living in my house with five kids. Ultimately, it was the bathrooms that got us. We started looking for something larger, but still in 501 district, in December. Not the time people are selling their houses, but in January we got lucky! 

We are moving from one side of Topeka to the other, from Potwin adjacent to Briarwood. We are going to be closer to my gym, but farther from everything else including my Jaime. Really hoping the arguments over bathrooms and space make it worth it. 

In an hour the moving truck is coming and it will be a welcome relief. We have been tripping over boxes for two weeks now and I'm ready to be done. Leaving the house I bought seven years ago for me and my boys is giving me all the feelings; excited, sad, frustrated and anxious. I guess that's a part of it too. 

Checking Another State off of the List

 Work took me to my 38th state on my quest to visit all 50. I attended the Extension Leadership Conference in Savannah, Georgia. It is a quick conference, only two days long but it had some great sessions. It was a little chilly in Georgia, but nothing compared to the negative temperatures this week in Kansas! 

Conference days were 7:30am to 5:15pm so there was not a lot of sightseeing going on. I did make it out after lunch one day and walked to Forsyth Park. It was very close to our conference and had a beautiful fountain, gardens and Spanish moss-covered trees. After that I felt like I saw something unique to Savannah. 

Jeff came along to handle the Uber responsibilities; he received five stars! The company with the other Kansas Agents was also top notch. You were lovely Georgia, maybe next time I come back it will be warmer.

Big move coming up for the Bergles family. Stay tuned! 

Book store cat, just for him I bought a couple of souvenirs here!

Leaving this picture in to remind myself we almost didn't get there. 
Flight was delayed in KC for over an hour then we had to run 
through the Chicago airport to make our connection. We did it, coming back home was 
smooth sailing! 

A Fun Night in Lawrence!

 Thanks to Jeff, five of us had some pretty great seats to the KU vs Iowa State men's basketball game on Monday night. The three lucky children that got to go this time was Daryl, Alex and Anna. We will do something later with Joseph and Lucas. 

I came down with a cold last week and was really worried I wouldn't be able to go but with the help of lots of medicine I went and had a good time! I didn't yell but thankfully the team played great without my encouragement ;-)

I think the late night hurt me more today than my cold but it was still worth it. We got home at 11pm but the car ride home was full of game recap and no fighting. I even got a sweet text message from Daryl thanking me for taking him. <3 

Needless to say, I will be in bed by 8:30pm tonight. Don't call me. LOL 

I told Daryl, price of admission is pictures, he did ok with it. LOL 

The players come and go but Jay and Baby Jay are staples!

I've never been in the 4th row at a KU game, it was AMAZING!

My boys are getting bigger....
Fun fact, the sweater Daryl is wearing is the sweater I
bought on my KU campus visit in 2003.

Dad and Daughter night, Lucas went last year so it was Anna's turn!

I'll take that for a final score!
