Talk about a WHIRLWIND week! In the last seven days we have:
-ate watermelon before it went out of season, (notice that NO HANDS were used)
-giggled a lot,
-watched t.v. at Grammie and Grandad's house, BEFORE we moved;
-ate at McDonald's for Half-Price Happy Meal Night, (a family tradition for years now!)
-packed up and moved from my parent's house into a darling little house a mile away,
-UNpacked and moved into our new little house a mile away,
-the kids discovered the scale at Walmart, they weighed EVERYTHING,
-got REALLY creative with the laundry since I have no DRYER: (ropes, bungees, vacuum cords, whatever I could find!)
-Carter's favorite thing to do is to push a chair up to the the silverware drawer and plays in it! It's so CUTE!
-Ryan "turned into" a lawyer! He got sworn in on October 1st, it was a real hearing downtown and it was so exciting. I saw some very familiar faces from Moscow and it was wonderful. It really resolved all of the hard work and sacrifices we have been living with for the last....our entire marriage so nearly nine years! I'm so proud of Ryan, he's going to do great things!
The gang
Taking the oath
I found my sweet friend, Alicia!
My dad and Dawson
Look at him show off his certificate from the Supreme Court! Better get that baby into a frame fast!
Garrison was there during the first half before he went to work. Ryanna just loves her uncle!
The kids were happy during the entire ceremony, they had the DS!
Afterwards, our parents took us out for a nice steak dinner! Thank you to my folks and Ryan's!
Whew! I'm exhausted, who is with me?
