Roughly 1,000,000 words, part 1

I'm going to do a quick catch-up on some major events.  Click on collages to see them larger.  If a picture is worth 1,000 words then I've had a lot to say this time!

Apparently Blogger doesn't like so much cuteness in one post and rejected the other uploads, so I'll try to do them in a second post in a second.

Up first: The Southern Family Egg Hunt.

We're ready to MOVE!!!  (taking the seats out of the van and getting the truck).  Also, Kate with her twin cousins in a nook in our new house acting as live statuary.  Very giggly statuary ;)

Our little egg hunt in a new yard.  All the eggs were collected and put together in the most appropriate container: a packing box.  Then we sorted and divided for everyone.

Saying goodbye to the old house.  It sure had its problems, and we were VERY ready for our own place, but there were a lot of great memories made in the 3 1/4 years we lived there.

And hello to our new house!  A few glimpses at our entryway and the peek through between the Great Room and Living Room.  The girls had a half-dead helium balloon.  One would drop it through the opening then someone would catch it below and throw it back up.  A half dead helium balloon is great because it makes for a very slow motion style no-damage game of catch.

more to come in a minute...
