Southwest Chickpea Salad

Oh man. Life lately. Just when you think that life is going to slow down a big change happens to make your life busy again. We are getting ready to close on a new house in a couple of weeks and will start the moving process. Again. We move so much that I should just leave everything in boxes. But this time it is kind of exciting because we will finally own a home. My husband has been finishing school and we have just been renting and moving from place to place. So it is exciting and nerve wracking to become first time home owners. On top of getting ready to move we are surviving the last month of school. I don’t know about you guys but the last month of school is hard! It is funny how I would wake up with my boys every day and pack them a lunch and walk them to school. Now my son wakes himself up to an alarm and gets him and his brother ready. I am ready for summer!
