Still Kickin'!

I was catching up on blogs after being disconnected from the world for the last 2 weeks and realized I haven't posted since February. I guess it's time we let everyone know we're still alive. Here are a few highlights from the last little while:

- We moved to Arkansas. So far it's treating us good and it's nice to actually get some warmer weather after our Utah snow.

- Our biggest accomplishment in the last week? Surviving the 3-day drive out to AR. We were so excited to finally be done driving and trying to entertain 2 boys in a confined car. Needless to say, I think we'll be flying home at the end of the summer...

- Tyler turned 18-months-old and can now officially attend Nursery. With the move and all the changes, I figured I'd give him a few weeks before we give that a go, but I'm hoping he'll like the change in scenery at church. Any suggestions for making that an easy transition?

Other than our move, not too much has been going on lately. I have some big plans to paint lots this summer so I hope I'll be able to post some new pieces when I get them done. I also want to send a HUGE thankyou to my Mom who helped us make the trip out. We really could not have done it without her. She's always so good to keep us sane when we're ready to pull our hair out and her optimism was priceless after the long days we had. We are so grateful for her willingness to sacrifice a week to help us drive and drive and drive and then unpack on top of that. You're the best, Mom, and we miss you a ton already!!

I needed to see where you guys ended up so the long drive was okay. The boys were so good and you girls were real troopers driving that long. I miss you all terribly. Can't wait for you all to be home.

I'm glad you guys made it safely! Hope Arkansas treats you well.

Nursery is like a band-aid. Just pull it off. Meaning drop him off and walk away.

I'm so glad you made it safely too. I think this should definitely be your last summer of sales. You need to spend your summers here with us!
