Whirl Wind!

So, it’s been a month since my update. Unfortunately this one is more a sound bite of last month than a real update.

Moving from Colorado to Illinois was stressful, but significantly less so than I thought it would be. Jennifer is an amazingly strong woman. She drove most of the 18 hours including the first leg right after saying goodbye to her husband. Then she lugged those babies inside every 3 hours to feed them. She really shocks me! I admire her a lot.

When we got to Illinois there was something going on everyday for the first week. I think this helped keep Jenn from getting too sad. People trickled in town and out of town one by one. Gina, Jason, mom, and Aunt Randa. We had a great time together:)

Little Miss Jana is all grown up and graduated. I can’t believe it really. I helped change her diapers. I can’t imagine how my parents must feel. I’m happy for her and excited to see what she comes up with next. Post graduation is such an exciting and empowering time.

Jennifer’s stuff came and we got our part of the house organized. Jenn, the kids, and I share the basement which we affectionately referred to as “The Cave” due to excessive darkness.

I celebrated Jana’s 18th birthday:) We went dancing in a club. She had a great time, and I was really happy that she invited me out with all of her friends:)

I came back to Washington. It smells incredible here. Western Washington in is my home.
