Everything under one roof!

So we are all moved in and have all of our stuff in one place which is great. Now the unpacking is to the hard part. Really what's left to unpack is going to take a while since I have to go through everything. By the time I am done there won't be one box that hasn't been touched in some way. I do have to go through all of the girls cloths because we have way to many and they are in new living arrangement. Alex and Azlie share a room and Cecilia and Aubrey share a room. It's working our really well for everyone. Cecilia really seems to like sharing a room and since Aubrey is such a big helper it has made the transition go smooth.

We went to our new ward yesterday and everyone was really nice to us. Aubrey met a little girl in her class named Grace. It was sort of cute because she told me "Her name is Grace and she has brown skin and she's my new best friend." I think we are going to have to start some play dates. Alex also found a new friend who as she said "she has yellow hair just like me." It's funny that when Alex is looking for friends she tries to find friends that have the same hair color as her. Poor girl is the only blond in the family so far. With being the only blond and also having her milk allergy I think she feels like an outsider sometimes. She was really hoping that Cecilia or Azlie would have the same hair color as her and each time was a little disappointed when they didn't.

We are all very happy. The girls love to go and play in the yard and are actually out there more than they are inside. That's good for Ben and I for more than one reason. First they get their energy out and when it's bed time they just crash. Second I don't have to hear as many fights and they seem to be getting along much better. We feel truly blessed to be where we are. I am in need of taking some new pictures of the breath taking views that are just out side our doors. That alone really makes me love this house. We have space and views, life is good!
