I apologize for how long it’s been since my last blog post, but believe it or not we have not had internet since leaving my parents’ house. As you can imagine it has been a VERY busy few weeks! The rest of our drive from Park City to Dallas was nice and we got to stay with one of my best friends, Christina Saunders, and then with my grandparents for two nights in Medicine Lodge, KS.
Turns out that the week we moved here was record breaking heat! Our car thermometer was reading up to 115 degrees for the first five days. It wouldn’t have been so bad because our house has great A/C, but we had to run errands all over the place to get the house set-up. The upside is we made it through the hottest week of the year so it can only get cooler…right?
We are continually pleasantly surprised by how friendly everyone is here; it truly is already feeling like home! We joined a local club that has an indoor/outdoor water park, health spa, fitness classes, exercise equipment, basketball and racquet ball courts, even a rock climbing wall. The best part is that they have an amazing childcare center that is ONLY $6 for both kids and they can go for two hours every day, so needless to say we have been there every day since signing up!
Noah loves it here so far; he has a great playroom and a play structure outside that he can play on at 5am ;). He started an art camp this week and really seems to be having a great time. He’s also made some friend in the kid’s center at the club. Amelia had her first taste of childcare when I dropped her off to go work out. I was so happy because the next day when I brought her back she couldn’t wait to get down and start playing with the other kids!
It’s been fun unpacking and setting up the house. The first week we had to do some furniture shopping to help fill-up the house and we’re eager to have it delivered, once it’s all set-up I’ll post some pictures. Noah’s room colors matched perfectly to what I had in mind so we won’t need to change anything. However, Amelia’s room is two shades of blue, so our project next week is to paint it and make it fit for a little girl. I am very excited about this project!
Here's some pictures from the last few weeks:
