Moving

About a month ago we got the startling news that my sister was moving, to Louisiana of all places! Her husband got a coaching job at Nicholls State University in the town my parents live in. We are really excited for them but it does stink that they are leaving especially so soon. When I got back from my Louisiana trip we had about a week together. I had in my mind to paint the playroom and let the kids help. Then I decided to paint a tree and let their hands be the leaves so we could have our own permanent and always growing family tree to look at when we missed our family and friends. It was quit the undertaking but I am so glad we did it and it turned out awesome. Thanks for all your help Anne. Our friend Ingrid came down from Idaho to help Anne move so she joined us for the fun. Sadly I don't a picture of her. I am still working on that goal...sorry Ingrid! I do love you! The kids are still not totally understanding the move but they are doing fairly well. At least we know we can see the Andersons whenever we go home! We loved having them here and we think of them and miss them often! We would love for everyone who comes over to add their hands to our tree! It has been fun making memories with the ones we love.
