Noah's Last Week of School AND Moving Day!





Noah and Ms. LeGage- Kindergarten     Noah & James with Matteo- classmate



This has been a crazy bittersweet week for us!  We are so excited to be moving into a new home with a much bigger space for the kids to play, but at the same time it is sad to leave our home in Portland and all of the neighbors and friends we have made here over the last four years.  Gabe and I are probably the most excited to close out the "training/school" chapter of our lives that has spanned the past 10 years and move into the "real job" phase;)  I thought I had planned the move perfectly to happen the day after Noah got out of school, but just for fun, his last day happened to be the day we moved... and why didn't Gabe take this day off?? Thankfully we hired movers! 

Noah had a theme day each day at school this week the top right picture was from Flag Day when everyone insisted on wearing (and having Audrey wear) matching shirts.  He has really had an amazing year with a teacher he loved and meeting lots of new friends.  He can now read most things and has improved greatly in math and drawing/painting skills. 

During this week we have tried hard to do some fun activities with the neighbors and around Portland while the kids are awake, then packing like crazy at night. We have made it to the end though, things got done and we are very thankful that my parents were able to be here and go above and beyond with some late nights... We have promised them that if we move again we will hire movers to do the whole job;)
