back on line

i am finally back on line after 5 days without interenet. 78 emails, whew! thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. the day kind of came and went, but i am just happy that we made it safely to kennewick, wa. tonz of boxes everywhere, tonz of stuff to clean, tonz of messes to pick up but we are getting settled in. the girls started school today and both came home loving their new teachers and school. i count that as a success. hunter and i started homeschool today and it was a partial success. we got through some literacy and a whole lot of boxes and that is about it. now i am on line again, we will be able to get more done. he did find a paper route and is super excited to start. i explained in great detail the commitment and unfortunately for ned and i it didn't phase him. he even rode the route on his bike today to make sure he felt he could do it. i think all he can see right now are dollar signs, even if they aren't too big(lol).
william started saying 3 words today..."no, not done." i've been going through all our toys and he is in heaven exploring all the toys he never knew we had. ned met with his first client today and also mentioned that he really enjoys teaching math to teenagers(one of his 2 pt jobs is teaching kids afterschool, the other is working at fedex). since we would like LAW to become a full-time job, feel free to let anyone you know (living in the tri-city area or wa.) we are open for business.
well, back to unpacking and unpacking and still more unpacking....

Glad you survived the move to WA! Moving is so exhausting. I love the pics of Will...what a cutie! :)

Yes, I'm glad you made it to your new home :) Thats wonderful that the girls like their new teachers, why are you home schooling Hunter? That's cool. There are some really amazing programs for home schooling. Try out the local YMCA for PE classes with other home schooled kids. Mike's wife home schools all of their kids & has found that to be pretty good for them.
Well, happy unpacking!

I'm glad to hear you made it safely. I was thinking about you the other day wondering if you had moved yet and if the move was going to prevent you from visiting Rexburg.

Ashley- you're there! I am so happy the kids like the school. what a relief. Any new friend prospects for you? I hope there is a good group of ladies there for all your parties. Keep me updated with all the latest- our chickens are running around their new chicken run now- it is starting to feel like a real farm. Not so pretend anymore :) lovya Ash
