Hello Hello

We have joined the Blogging world. We love reading others and decided to join in the fun. Also, we thought it would be a great way to keep in touch with all of our fabulous friends and family in Arizona. Special thanks to Kennedy Coley who helped us set up a blog. Click the link on the side to check out her creation.

We arrived in Boise Tues, Nov 6th. After a few long nights we pretty much have our home settled (special thanks to Grandma Wood for helping unpack). It is a cute home in Southwest Boise and the boys said it would do. We are living here temporarily until we find the "perfect" home to purchase.

Alex started school at Desert Sage. Desert Sage my AZ friends may ask? Yep! Same name as his AZ school just different mascot. He is now a coyote. Funny coincidence! He is enjoying his class and finally enjoyed recess today.

Zach started preschool with Ms. Brandi and is happy to be the only boy on campus. He loves is class and wants to go everyday, but only gets to go on Tues and Thurs. He was a little disappointed that there wasn't a large purple dinosaur on the wall like he had a Ms. Carrie's preschool. He finally decided it is okay to wear a jacket. It has been a little chilly with a high of 50 and a few days with rain.

Syd is doing well although she is definitely heading for the terrible... I mean terrific twos! She has climbed out of her crib a couple of times and refuses to sit in the shopping cart which makes grocery shopping even that much more enjoyable. She still works hard to keep up with her brothers and loves to be in the middle of everything.

Cris is off on his weekly road trip to Idaho Falls. Since he is now doing sales he travels once a week to eastern Idaho to drum up some new business. This new position is quite a change from the corporate days in Phoenix and we are all adjusting to his new schedule. But overall it will work just fine.

Me! Well I have been busy organizing the home and realizing have way to much stuff. Well I am certainly not a hoarder but it is amazing how much you accumulate after 11 years of marriage. It has also been great to reconnect with old friends and family who live in the Boise area. Oh, and I run the twice daily taxi to Alex's school. No bus service for him. But too far and cold to allow him to go off on his own. I don't mind, but Syd vs car seat vs Mom is getting old. I am also navigating my way around this city. Haven't gotten lost yet, but stay tuned. Here are some recent pics of the family and our home. Drop us a note and if you are in town drop by!
