New Town at St. Charles

Has anyone heard of the New Urbanism concept???

As you all know my husband is in the construction business, we are always dreaming of new lofty goals to live out our American Dream.  I was researching this building concept and I have to admit, I have somewhat became a bit enamered. 
I came across a website for the New Town at St. Charles, Missouri.
How darn cute is this town, seriously??? 







I love the architectural details of the homes. 
I would love to visit to see it for myself.

refresh

Well, it has certainly been a long time! 



While it's not as though I have thousands of readers wondering where I have been.
I feel that it is necessary for me to fill in any of you out there who may pop in from time to time.  First I would like to apologize that I have not stuck to my committment to blogging.  As many of you know blogging takes a true committment to be successful and can become a bit time consuming if you will.



I have mentioned before that I have had some health issues over the past few months.  It has been a long and challenging journey that I hope I am nearing the end of.  I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease back in December.  While I am only 33, all of the treatment options did not resolve my issue.  On May 15th I had a spinal fusion back surgery.  I had three of the discs in my back removed and restructerd and fused with titanium rods and screws.  Which we believe may have been the exact same surgery that my father had.  Lucky me, thanks for the good genes Dad.  I have been home recovering for about a month now.  I hope to be heading back to work and normal life soon!  Whatever that new normal is.......I am also on a journey to try to be healthier in order to ensure that I take the best possible care of myself going forward in order to stay healthy!


So it is time to refresh for spring!  I am back! 
And I have updated the look of my blog a little to reinspire myself!
I am recommitting to my blog and myself to do the things in life that make me happy and bring me joy!
