Across the Country & Move In

So the dreaded time was upon us.....it was time to drive from MN to VA.  We had a couple of days in Minnesota where we were able to spend some time with family.  That was nice.  And because of SNOW yup SNOW in April we were delayed by a day.  We left early saturday morning and arrived somewhere near Fremont, Ohio thirteen some hours later.  Our kiddos were SUPERSTARS!  I really was shocked at how accommodating they were.  Landon would get a little bored and then feisty but once he napped a bit all was well.  Addison of course was super happy because she got unlimited movie time.  Bubble guppies topped the list of favorites! 

The next day we had a lot less ways to go and arrived at our NEW house about 6:30p.m. or so!  So seeing our house for the first time......it is small, the closets are tiny, but it is in a great location and has a super school. So that trumped everything!  

Landon is a genius!  Who needs cucumbers when you have stickers? 
 Our silly Addi-cat
So there was a little time between when our stuff arrived and when we arrived...so it had to go to storage...which I guess meant being put into crates!  Seems like a lot of extra work for somebody.  But all our stuff got here! 
 The cherry blossoms were in full bloom when we arrived...at least our neighbors were! 
  So the first day we arrived we met so many people.  I was amazed. I told Bill that I felt like I was on an episode of Army Wives...without the drama!  At one point both of my kiddos were at the neighbors playing...and she said...ahh don't worry about it you guys are busy and they are just playing!  What?  I could have hugged her a million times!  There are a lot of military families in the area! Which is good and bad.....good because we have something in common...bad because they are gonna leave!  
Addison and Sara...our neighbor.
