Life Lately

If you follow my blog at all, you know I have been really slacking lately!  We have been in Louisiana for one week now, and settling in has been a little bit of a challenge.  It turns out, it's just as hard to unpack with two young children as it was to pack with two young children.  But there are significantly less boxes than there were a week ago, and I'm slowly finding a place for everything.  In addition, we have been sitting on the floor for the last week.  We sold our LR furniture before we left Georgia because we knew we wanted something new.  We finally settled on some yesterday and it will be delivered tomorrow.  Yay!


Here's what else has happened since our arrival:  


We arrived on Tuesday.  Wednesday, Cory's mom and sister showed up.  They were just a tad bid excited  about us moving closer.  Also, it was Lindsay's first time to meet Eli.  


While they were here, they took advantage of our nice apartment pool.  Landry enjoyed it too!    

              

Cory's already been recruited to play on the church league softball team.

The kids and I already took a trip home.  We went to be with my family and to attend the funeral of a very special, sweet, loving man,  my great uncle Lloyd.  He will be deeply missed.

Eli wore his first tie for the occasion.                   

And while we were home, Eli got to meet many people for the first time, including Uncle Josh and Aunt Trista.

Judging by his smile, I think he liked them.

So that is my "ketchup" blog.  I should be much better at keeping up after my boxes are unpacked.  I better run to get after it again.
