Hi everyone-
We are finally getting settled into our apartment!  It doesn't feel like "home" yet, but we are getting there.  The boys and I arrived last Friday to a pretty organzied new place, thanks to Matt.  He had already been unpacking for a week and had all the beds set up and almost all of the boys things unpacked.  It was really nice to come in and not see a ton of boxes.  The boys were thrilled to see their beds and all of their toys and furniture again. 

Here are a few snapshots of us from the past week:

Matt setting up the washer and dryer....sorry I couldn't resist! :)
 
The boys entertaining themselves with boxes.  They were desperate for some time to let loose after all the stress of the move and this kept them occupied for a few hours. 

A picture of my mom and her buddies Chewy and James.  She drove down with the boys and I and then stayed with us for the first week.  I can't imagine what I would have done without her being here.  She helped unpack the kitchen, did countless loads of laundry, cooked us dinner and some fabulous desserts, and helped watch the boys while I got them registered for school.  It was such a blessing to have her with us! 
 
This is a picture of Jackson before the school dance he attended Friday. He was so nervous about going to a new school and I was prettied worried, but look at him now!  I am so proud of him for going and being so brave.
 

 
What else??? Oh, I do have a quick Tour de Le Apartment for you:
 
 
Driving into our apartment complex...It's only two minutes from Matt's office!
 

The front of our building.

Living room...

 
Small area for our table... 

 
 Kitchen...
 
Taylor and Jame's room.  This living situation started out well, but has gone downhill fast.  Taylor is very patient, but he misses his privacy and being woken every morning at 6:30 by his baby brother doesn't help.  This morning it was James singing "Party Rockers" that threw him over the edge. :)
 
 
The view from our balcony...it's very private and quiet, which is nice.  We've also seen deer right down below. 
 


That's all for now.  More to come soon!
Love,
Jennifer
