Our house in Portland sold much faster than we had anticipated.... that leaves the kids and I living in the new house of 3 weeks while Gabe finishes up work.... I think we can make it;) A huge thank you to Gabe's sister and program director for giving him a place to stay during this time. Gabe was able to be here for our first weekend in the house which gave us time to unpack and set up "enough" as well as explore the area. Farmington was having a summer kick-off festival where the kids got arm paintings, rode ponies, fed the goats and road on the ferris wheel.... Ben is quite adventurous and does all of these things without hesitation... I think we should be worried;)
Noah lost a tooth on the first morning in the new house and yes, the tooth fairy did find him. The kids and I spent the first few days exploring our new property, enjoying the beautiful weather and the pool. No one wanted to get into the pool initially, so after 10 minutes or so James agreed to be thrown in... it was not warm. We are very fortunate to have what seems to be a really well thought out and landscaped yard that has been a bit neglected in recent years, but with a bit of work should be very enjoyable. Our first findings were a cool robin's nest with chicks in the apple tree just off the deck, we also discovered some strawberry bushes and a rhubarb plant... sounds like good summer treats to me!
