on the road again (10-16-08)

So I have debated just selling everything we own buying a van (ok I have one of those) but just live in it. Then every time we decide to move we won't go through all the hideousness (yes that's a word cause I say it is) of packing up and actually moving. Ahh my life is somewhat crazy but it's all good. We have now moved from Arkansas to Lexington Kentucky!! long story short there are 2 dental schools in the state and we are sure hoping that by getting residency here we will get into one of them. So we have moved and so far so good. Lexington is absolutely Beautiful!!

We enjoyed our short time in Arkansas and the friends we made. Luke keeps asking to go to his friend Cole's house and we are sad to leave our new friends the McKinneys but hopefully we will be getting a visit from them soon!! Poor Luke everyday he asks about one of his friends and it's hard to explain to a 3 year old that oh sorry Noah lives in Oregon and sorry Mia lives in Raymond and no I wish we could go to Pete's house (tear tear) And Sorry we can't go see Logan and Zep and Tom... So hopefully we can make some friends here soon so that he isn't always so confused. But he is getting better at talking on the phone so he can call Grandma and Grandpa!



So this move was extra crazy because we didn't have Ramsey's parents to help, and Lily the precious little Jem that she is would not let us put her down! she could tell that everything was crazy and she responded by wanting to be held the entire time we were trying to pack the truck. So Ramsey had her on his back for a good 3 hours going up and down the 2 flights of stairs to our appartment bringing me loads of stuff to pack into the truck. It was crazy and the Humidity did not help. I think Ramsey may have lost a few pounds that day he was a little bit wet by the end.

So Lily and I were loaded up in the van

And Ramsey and Luke drove in the "Big Truck" hauling the Yota. Luke loved it and he rode in it the whole trip. We only made it about 5 hours the first day, but we just stopped at a hotel for the night and went the rest of the way the next day.

The funniest part of the move was when we were packing up the house Luke would say "no that's my chair" or "no that's my Toy" But the best was when we were moving his matress he jumped up and dove onto it "Nooo that's mine" poor kid he's a little mixed up. So anyway we are here and we're excited about it! And we would love visiters!!
