We moved to our new house!!
Number 9:
Disney on Ice in Kearney
Emma, Addie, and I went to the show back in December. The girls LOVED it! If you know Addie, you know she loves everything Disney Princess. And all the princesses were there. This picture shows each one dancing with their prince.
Bruce the Shark from Finding Nemo.
It's a Small World After All
Did I mention the girls loved it?? This is how they looked the entire time:
I realize Emma is not smiling and looks bored, but she was very intently taking it all in.

Steph and Nancy
Kendra and me

All the guys were there, too, but didn't get any pictures of them.
Number 5:
I signed up for Facebook a few months ago and am now putting myself through Facebook rehab. This was the most addicting thing I've ever done! It was fun to catch up with old friends, but in the meantime all of my "blog followers" (you know, the 4 of you) were being neglected.
I'm so sorry about that!
Number 6:
The Bachelor is on!
I also love watching American Idol, The Biggest Loser, and True Beauty. AND we now have DVR. Wow! How did I survive without it? I can record all my shows and watch them after the kids go to bed. I am loving it!! By the way, I'm guessing the final two are Naomi and Jillian.
Bachelor Jason:
Number 7:
School started!
Since we now live in the country, Emma gets to ride the bus everyday. This is what she was most excited about when we decided to build a house. She gets on at 7:15am and is home by 3:50pm. Second one on, second one off.
Number 8:
Luke has been writing on the walls.
Look how proud he is of his masterpiece.
Thank goodness for Magic Erasers!!

Playdates
Luke and Cousin Samuel
Addie and Cousin Jeffrey
Addie and Emma with Cousin Graham
Addie and her friend from preschool, Georgia. They played dress-up all afternoon.
Can't you just see the embarrassment on Addie's face?
Number 10:
I've been decorating my house with Uppercase Living.
I promised Joe I wouldn't put this in every single room of the house.
But I did get these up last weekend.
It's hard to see, but it says "Welcome To Our" about Home. I just ordered a lighter color to replace it. This is by our fireplace and you see it when you walk in the front door.

I will show you more pictures of the house later. I still have little projects to do around the house - organize the store room, make curtains, paint furniture, get pictures hung, knick knacks scattered around the house, etc. I'll keep you updated and it won't take me 2 months, promise!
