Well we made it

Okay I know we have been here for a few weeks now but I just not had the time to sit down and post here. The house is nice it needs some work but that is fine. It is 4 bedrooms. It has 3 levels but not as many steps as the house in utah. so the downstairs is a very large room it is like 27 feet long. This is our family room. we have set up the Tv on one side and the other wil be like a play area for the kids. the main floor has the Kitchen dinning room front room. The dinning room is too small for our family so we are converting the front room to the dinning room works out nicely. the dinning room houses the 2 refridgerators, shelving and a phone area we have set up with a desk and shelving. the main floor has both the bathrooms and laundry area. there is a bedroom that has a bathroom attached and that has become Hope's room and the girls bathroom. the other room is the office for right now. But if needed it will become my mom's room. the up stairs has 2 large bedrooms each about 16 foot long this is the master bedroom and the 4 boys room. Now that is what is going to take adjusting since the 4 booys have never shared a room befor but they will be fine after some time.
the back yard has a good sized shed and a workroom. the yard itself is all dirt and some rocks. Kinda nice not to worry about grass now but I will miss gardening. i will be able to o some gardening soon but that will take time as well.
The kids are adjusting fine. Joshua is in middle school and not really liking it very much. I have a meeting with all his teachers on thursday along with his couseler. Hope and Ale are making friends fast and like the new school. Nathan is having a very hard time and really misses is friends in Utah.
Today Avery and I went to our first playgoup ever. We met a few nice ppl and Avery got to play with kids.
McKay has been working since the day after we got here. It is nice that he is working But honestley is is wierd not having him home so much.
Me i am holding out okay I get to see my mom ad that is nice and i am back on my old bowling league. friday nights I get a few hours to myself.
of course we are still unpacking and it may not ever get fully unpacked. I am hiding in the family room away from the site of cardboard boxes
Well I will end this I am going to get some pictures taken as soon as I find the charger for my cameras LOL

Hey Dena! I am sorry I didn't call while we were in Vegas, but like most of our trips lately, it was WAY too short... Dan didn't think it was worth 14 hours of driving, and even though I didn't do any of the driving, I kind of agree! Anyhow, I am glad that you guys are settled. I look forward to those pics you've promised :)
