Moving

We finally did it, we moved. 

Its been 7 months since Mike left to work at Langley Air force Base and we are finally back together as a family.  We drove back to Blacksburg on Friday, ended up having to drive an extra 2 hrs to pick-up our truck but made it late that night.  The next morning Mike and I loaded about half the truck before relief help arrived. Friends and church members quickly helped load the rest of the truck and get the house cleaned and ready to sell.  The truck was loaded and packed so early we were able to say our last few good-byes to friends and drive back to Yorktown Saturday night.  Raquel and Natalya had a fun time riding in the moving truck with dad while I took the boys and dogs in our red truck.  It was smooth traveling and I think the only ones who didn't like moving were the dogs.
Mike's friend Brian helped us unload the truck into the garage at our new rental house.  It took Mike and I a couple more days to move and clean his apartment and unpack our house.  Its starting to feel like home and we are really enjoying living near the beach and swimming pools. Our house in Blacksburg isn't sold yet but we hope it will be soon.

Dinos Live

We came to Yorktown to visit Mike for a few weeks before we moved officially. The girls enjoyed a week of horse camp and the boys and I played.  One of the days we went to the Virginia Living Museum where they have a new exhibit called Dinos Live. The boys thought it was pretty neat seeing the dinosaurs move, dig for fossils and uncover bones.
