Between packing up our old home and unpacking our new home, there has been little time to blog. But here is a quick update:
We arrived in Seattle on March 19th, and moved into our Redmond Ridge home on the 20th. My mom was here to help us that weekend, which was wonderful. The girls were a bit confused so having another relative for them to hold onto was helpful. At first we plowed through boxes, then slowed down as we lost our umph. We still have those two annoying boxes of random stuff that I dread unpacking. For the most part though, we are almost finished. We are getting there. Slowly but surely our house is becoming a home.
A few more from the last couple of weeks:
It is also very nice having my aunt, uncle and cousin nearby. Evan's brother Luke also lives close by! We love being able to hang out with him often. We are lucky and blessed to have family around us.
We have a long road ahead of us. Still many friends to be made, and directions to learn but for now we are having fun exploring our new surroundings. I have learned the important stuff, like where the best place to run is, and the quickest way to get to target or Costco. The beauty of the trees here is honestly breathtaking. Our new life is becoming a reality as we come out of the crazy stage. It is both scary and exciting. I'll try to focus on the latter. We honestly feel blessed to be here and hope that WA will feel more and more like home everyday.
