Moving!



We moved! Andy got a new job so we high-tailed it from the east side of the state and returned to the west side where we met and started our family.



The kids had a blast checking out the moving truck. When asked if they thought we could fit all of our stuff in there, the answer they gave was "No way!" (That was also what I was thinking!) But we managed to get just about everything with only a few little trips to pick up the rest.


Below are pictures of the two major projects and one minor project that we had to finish before our renters moved in: the dining room, bathroom, and living room respectively. They looked so nice, we had to remind ourselves why we were moving! :) We don't recommend the "remodel right before you move" method and plan on never repeating that again.

I plan on adding a post later with scenes from our adventures since moving back to Holland... I've obviously been a little busy lately! ;)

Snapshots of Mikaela's Birthday Party

Happy Birthday, Part 2! :)
Mikaela decided that she would like to have a barbie doll cake for her birthday. She helped me decorate it by putting on the stars all over the dress. I was very please with how well it turned out. I'll post some more pictures of the making of the cake in another post sometime. It was fun to make even though I wasn't sure how she would turn out!





After eating our lasagna (requested by the birthday girl) we sang Happy Birthday and she blew out the candle...





Then came presents...





...while the boys played...



Then we headed outdoors...






What a fun and beautiful day!
