It's been a while!

As most of you know, we've been a little busy with a move around here. We finally got the last of our things into 404 Summit Avenue the last week in August. We moved 95% of everything ourselves, back and forth, back and forth - good times. I am still unpacking a few boxes and finding treasures we packed up almost a year ago when we were preparing to leave Raleigh. It's been a sentimental journey.

Much work has been done - painting, refinishing hardwoods, stripping wallpaper, more painting and wallpapering, weeding, painting, (shopping), painting, etc. The kitchen is half out as we remodel, but it is coming together and it's starting to feel like our forever house.

Blan is very proud and has adjusted incredibly well to yet another new environment. He is digging his new room, but he says his yard is his favorite thing about the house. We are surrounded by other kids, mostly girls. And he loves it! The sound of children playing outside is constant here and it is welcome. This is a wonderful place for Blan to grow. We are finally at home and we thank God each day for answered prayer - for bringing us back and providing this dream place for us. He is so good.

Having silly time in the new bath...
