evan, lindsay, nina, elena and esther

It's been three weeks. I think we'd all agree that it's feeling like home. It's where we sleep eat and where Nina throws tantrums. Here is our "you don't feel you're at home till" list, including but not limited to:

We've attended our new ward three (now four) times

Nina adjusted to her new nursery class (but still talks about friends from Kenmore a lot)

I met our postman Willie just today

Nina was rescued by another mom after falling into a pond at our first playgroup last week

Our first friendly treats brought to us by our neighbors

Our first treats we offered to a neighbor were rejected (they were pretty gross looking hahaa)

We finally put up some frames!

Our DVDs are alphabetized

Evan has his bus route down pat

We had our first fruit fly

Our first neighborhood shooting was a few days after we moved in

We've visited all parks including a beach within a 3 mile radius

We've had a guest stay over night (Nice to see you Scott we're glad you came!)

We held a slammin fathers day party with both sides of our family.


From a trip to the beach a couple of saturdays ago:











"You can hold your applause" - I think that's what Elena is saying in the picture above
