Some Random Thoughts Since our Move:
I just wanted to post and say that we made it here safely. I cannot believe I went so long without blogging. Oddly, I haven't thought much about blogging in the recent busy weeks. Or maybe that isn't so odd?! Hmmm.
We are here and getting settled. The three middle children started school on Monday. Kayla, the oldest, starts school next Monday because they are doing testing this week here. Finals, to be exact. In Colorado, we had finals before Christmas break. So this is a little unusual for us. Tonight is Kayla's first night at YW in the new ward. She was so nervous to go, so I'm praying she has a good time!
The weather here has primarily been cold and snowy. We have about 1.5 - 2 feet of snow in the yard. It's crazy! But my kids have enjoyed sledding and playing in it. We live at the end of a Cul-d-sac and I'm converted to this way of life! I love being able to let my kids, including and particularly the youngest ones, wander in and out without fear of them running right into the street. And I love the huge, triangle shaped yard!
I love being with Laren again and having us all together. I love that Laren actually gets home about 10 minutes or so after he leaves the office! In Colorado, it took him nearly an hour to get home after work.
We have a Church just a half a block away from us, but that is a different Stake. So we attend one down the street and around the corner and around another corner - like maybe 5 or 6 blocks, way too far away! Ha ha!!
I've gotten lost way too many times already, even with the Garmin. Apparently, these small neighborhood streets are just too hard for a college educated mother of 5 to navigate!! I'm getting used to parking out nearly to the main street every time I go to Walmart or Costco. And Colorado has never seen a long line compared to Utah. It's crazy!!! But, I love having lots of kids around here for my kids to play with; and to think we had a lot on our street in Colorado!
So far we are liking it, but it is not without lots of adjustments, including this small, but sufficient-sized house. I'm still missing so many things, so I'm just relenting and replacing some of the less-expensive things, either that or just accepting it and trying not to be frustrated!
My kids say school is a lot easier over here. They cannot believe how easy their homework is and how little time it takes them to do it, but we are not complaining!! ;)

So glad to see you poking your head out of your hole! {{{{{hugs}}}}}
Glad you made it! I hope Kayla enjoys YW - I still wish she and Erin could have had more time together. How nice for her to get an extra week off!!!
Hey Kari, when you get settled in, let's plan a girls lunch!
Glad that you got settled in ok. Post some pictures of your new house, and such. As far as size goes, just remember your little apartment on Drew St. ;)

I'm happy you guys are all together again! Glad things are going well. Moving is always an adjustment, but what a fun adventure, too!
Hi Kari! Thanks for your note left on my blog and know that I am sure thinking of you. Glad you are settling in so well and on those days that seem "blah", just remember that there is a bigger picture! So happy we are back in touch. Still just love you, roomie! :) Big hugs right back at ya!
Good luck!
Where are you now? You must live really close to me! We'll have to get together sometime. And, my sister is in P.G. I do enjoy the culdesacs, although I don't have any children to send out to play yet.
Good to hear an update. funny about the church buildings--and I have to drive 30 minutes...and strange about finals after a break. We all know no kid in their right mind was studying during the holidays! But at least your kids have it easy acedemically.
I am so glad to hear you are all together again! Moving is so stressful, glad that part is over for you, but unpacking it all can be just as unpleasant. Good luck with everything. Keep us posted:)
