Our Arizona Trip

We just got back from a long vacation to Arizona. We got the chance to spend some time with family and it was nice. We were able to be involved with Amy's (Doug's sister) wedding. It was a beautiful day after a cold and rainy weekend. Congratulations to Amy and Zach for a beautiful day.

Cameron really enjoyed being apart of his aunt's wedding and he was so very excited to also see his kindergarten teacher that he had in Arizona. Cameron had a lot of school work to do while we were on vacation, because he was missing so much school, and he got it all done. He was so proud. 

While on vacation we had a friend that was watching our house and our dogs and it was such a relief to have someone we trusted looking after our babies. We knew they were in good hands. I am looking forward to the next time we get to see our family, I hope that it is sooner rather than later.

We have been in Ohio for about a month now and we are really enjoying it. We feel like we are at home and that is such a good thing because we were not sure how long it would take to make it all feel good. I am looking forward to continuing to build our life here.

Freezing Rain 2/1/11

Today was a no school day for Cameron and a work from home day for Doug. We had freezing rain that made it near impossible to leave the house at all, at least it was not safe to leave the house. We just hung out at home but I tell you we need to go to the grocery store for sure. Hopefully we can do that tomorrow.

It has been real challenging out here for me and for Cameron, however Doug seems to be adjusting OK. Cameron is having a few issues with listening both at home and at school. I think we are starting to get there with working closely with his teacher and the school. I am going to be fine, I just need to get my business started. I am finding it hard to get out of the house to meet people and that is really putting a strain on this social butterfly. I have been in constant contact with my lia sophia girls out here and I know that things will be good. I am so excited to watch my business grow as I utilize all my contacts and my help out here.

Just a little note to let everyone know that everything out here is going well and we are going to be great. We have only been here for a few weeks and so there is still some adjustment as we continue our time here. One of Doug's co-workers would like to utilize my math skills to help tutor his daughter, I am really looking forward to that.

Thank you for all your support as our friends family.
