We have pictures!! These first ones were taken at the "Playground of Dreams". The whole community got together and built this in five days. It's huge, has a section for toddlers and only one entrance. So you can take your kids there and let them run wild, and sit near the entrance on some benches just for moms. The boys love it. There's lots of shade and a splash park right next to it.



The aforementioned splash park. It's so nice on hot days and you don't have to worry about drowning.


The "Playground of Dreams" is about 15 minutes from our house. Not far, but then we have this beauty within walking distance.



Don't ask me how he got on top of this rock. I think there were some grade schoolers that couldn't get up there. He needed help down though. There's a new rule: No climbing on the BIG rocks.

Of course the traditional Saturday yard sales are in full swing. We needed to find a computer desk since the 4 ft. table Adam's mom and dad gave us was sagging in the middle. Who knew that an eMac was so heavy. We were successful, but more than that, the boys found these treasures:

$1 for the HUGE truck and trailer that Phin insisted on playing with in the car.$.50 for the binoculars so that George could go "exploring".

And now for some really cute videos. In the first one, if you can't hear it, Spencer is laughing hysterically every time he hits himself in the face with his toy. My kids are weird.


And in this one, Phin sings his favorite Primary song.


In any case. We are having a blast here in Richland. We are heading over to Boise tomorrow for Alix's wedding on Friday. It will be good to see all the folks there. Plus, you just have to love weddings with the flowers, music and free cake.

Our First Post

Welcome to our family blog! We are finally on line and excited to keep you, our family and friends, up to date on what we are doing here in beautiful Eastern Washington. Since we have moved "so far away" we want to make sure you feel like we are still "close to home". We are figuring out a way to get our pictures from our phones onto our blog. This picture of George is from Grandmom and Pop pop's house but I thought it showed the love we have for all of you. We miss you and can't wait to start sharing our new life with you.
