"eat in" area in kitchenWe made it! Wow, the drive across the country seems a lot longer now with 2 kids and a dog :) Back in the BYU days Stacey Belnap, Julie Beckman & I would do UT to FL in 35 hrs. flat. Not this time- 4 days!! We drove for 4, 10 hr. days & made it here late on Wed. 29th. We spent 2 days at Ikea in Charlotte shopping for new furniture (fun!) and then a couple days assembling the new furniture (not so fun...). Finally by the weekend we were able to start unpacking and now that we've been here just over a week, we are pretty much set up. We really like our new place. The community is cute and everyone is friendly. The kids LOVE the pool and tennis court. We have driven around just a bit...checked out a local Park (Tangelwood Park) and Toby is already on a soccer team so we drove out to soccer practice. Arielle gets to check out the stables next week. We know 2 LDS families in town and they are super nice!! We've already been invited to dinner and made to feel at home. The sister missionaries left a note on our door today welcoming up and letting us know they would like to come over and get to know us. (In the mission field I remember that is code for "feed us"!! hee hee) Here's some pics of the new place.

Love the new place. I can't believe you have it decorated already. It looks so cute. Miss you tons!!
Wow looks great. How did you manage to get unpacked and all organized and decorated already?
I know your truck was small. but you are absolutely amazing to have it all put away, and decorated already! I love it.
Your house is so cute, you are on the ball, it usually takes me a year to be fully unpacked and semi organized, and I never get around to decorating.
And I TOTALLY miss you!!!!! I have lots of great friends but non compare to you:( Keep in touch-Heather
P.S. Have you made any running friends yet? I ran 11.5 this weekend, felt great, but I missed you!!
Looks so nice! We need to ditch all of our stuff and start fresh! We are so glad that you are here and can't wait to get to know you guys more and definitely hang out too!
