Our Home

The long awaited picture of our home has finally been taken. We finally moved into our home a week ago and have been very busy unpacking. I feels like the boxes are endless and that we'll never get settled in. We had a lot of good help moving in. The ward here has been very good to us and welcoming. I think we are all starting to feel like we'll be okay here and that this is a good place to call home for now. There have been some really great people here.

We have tried to find some fun things to do as a family and also to get ourselves more familiar with the area. We watched the hot air balloons launch, played at several parks, went to some fun kids play places, and even taken a few drives. Dallas really is a pretty place. The weather has been warm, upper 80's to low 90's, while those of you back home get to experience the nice fall cold weather. We still don't have a second car yet, which has been had on all of us. The boys are doing good in school and adjusting okay. Payton is now sleeping through the night, 7 hours. It has been so great. She is smiling all the time and is trying to talk. She is also awake alittle more during the day and is starting to have a more structured schedule. The boys are so good to play and talk with her and they love her to death. She is definately a daddy's girl. Whenever she cries and I can't get her to stop, the moment her dad takes her, she stops. I don't get it.

We were so excited last week when uncle Aaron called and said he would be in Dallas for the day. He came and spent the day with Payton and I. It was the first time that he's seen her. They were so cute, I had to take a picture.
