Montana

After being in a hotel in CA for a few days waiting for our stuff to arrive, we finally were able to move into our house! We were only there for a couple of days before taking off to drive to see our families. First stop, Montana, to see Bart's family. Fun times! Hiking to the "M", carousel, movie, shopping, Kelsey lost her first tooth, playing with the rabbit, picking and eating raspberries and cherries in their backyard, making jam, children's museum, fishing....

First Stop in CA-The Beach

The kiddos were super excited to hit the beach. Once there, they stood in awe....the little ones trying to get brave enough to step into the water. Makenna was fine to play in the sand. We had a great time!

Moved-- Coast to Coast--Saying Good-Bye

Well, we did it!! We moved coast to coast and survived! I'm finally downloading pictures and getting ready to do some updates. School starts in 2 days, so bear with me as I continue to get settled. I will do some updates this week! We have had a busy and short summer... and it will be fun to share our adventures! (Here is a picture of us in front of our house before leaving it for the last time. So many memories were made in this beautiful home....)

When we first moved to VA 8 years ago, we went to the National Zoo. Cole was 3, Sadie was 15 months. We took the first picture above of them that day. Since we were headed back to the zoo this week, I decided to try and find the statue and re-create the picture... the first week we lived here and the last week we lived here. We searched and searched and couldn't find the statue, so we used this awkward frog. hehe So, here are the two kids and then a picture of all 5! What a life we have enjoyed here!

Saying Good-Bye

The next several posts and some future ones, will be centered around saying good-bye to fabulous friends and doing things for the last time in VA. I'm still in denial that we are leaving....
