Long Time No Blog

Okay, I guess it hasn't been all that long, but it feels like it to me. I have been so out of the loop. I can't decide if it is a good thing or not, but I feel a lot more lonely without my fabulous internet connection to my friends and family. Email, myspace, facebook, blogs galore, aim, and my most favorite of all....ooVoo (webcam). I almost resorted to handwriting a letter yesterday because I couldn't get ahold of my friend on the phone! :) Then I remembered, the internet guy is coming tomorrow. I would be able to email before the snail mail ever made it to her. Technology! Gotta love it!
So, obviously we've been super busy. Moving into this house has been soooo hard! I don't remember it being so hard last time we moved....but we also didn't have stairs and literally EVERYTHING was bigger: doorways, hallways, drawers, closets, everything! This move has taken a lot of twisting, turning, removing doors, moving things up and down stairs, etc. But it is almost done. I'm still working on finding a place for my clothes, locating some missing shoe boxes, and finding a spot for all the bathroom gear that doesn't have a place in our new bathroom: makeup, lotions, hairdryer, curling iron, flat iron, hairspray, mousse, on and on and on.
But! We are loving it. Our house is cozy (I understand that is a nice way of saying "small"). It really is great though. Our playroom/school room is awesome and my "studio" is awesome too! Just finished putting all that away this morning before the internet guy came.
Rand and I put up the kids playset in the enormous backyard. That took us 2 days. After it was up we said, "Yes! This is why we moved the darn thing to 2 states!" The kids are loving it and so are we!
So without further ado here are some pictures. Several more blogs to come....like I said, we've been busy. Gotta share it with someone!!!!

Here it is! Finally! We waited a year and a half to put this sucker back up! It was totally worth it!
