Starting Over

I'm finally a "Blogger". I tried to resist, but now that all our family and friends are spread across at least four different states, it just makes sense! We all know that I am pretty bad with email, and even worse yet with the phone. I hope this makes it easier for us to keep in contact!

With that said, we are all s-l-o-w-l-y getting settled in our new house. We still don't have everything unpacked yet, but we haven't even been in it a month and we have the basics, so I guess we will survive. I am still missing piddling around in the yard. I LOVED working in our old yard, but to put one in from scratch......well, I'm about as good at that as making a phone call! Needless to say, I have some anxiety about going from this....

t0 this.........

Don't worry, we DO have a front porch now, but pretty much no yard. I think we might have to enlist the help of some professionals though because there is a huge slope to the yard (we need retaining walls) and about 4 inches from the top is solid ROCK! Yes, there are hills. We're not in Kansas anymore!

Brinn started preschool last week and loves it. She goes three days a week. The only problem is that it's not long enough. She says she wants more school!

We had our first overnight guests last weekend. The VanDevers decided to visit God's country for a little R&R. I don't know how much of that they got, but we did have a lot of fun. We went to Silver Dollar City where Erica LOVED the log ride - oh how I wish I had the picture! Brinn and Addy played horses, and Nathan loved the ice cream from Hanna Banana.
