Move 1 of 2

Our first of two moves is complete! We are in our temporary location and looking forward to our second, and hopefully final, move. Carly has adjusted much better than I expected. She has even gone to bed really well. We are set to close the sale of our house this afternoon and are excited to have that complete. It was really strange to see the first home that we shared together empty, but exciting to know we are moving forward.

Wedding - Uncle Chris and Aunt Becky

Jon's brother, Chris, got married on Saturday. Aunt Becky is now official! Carly adores both of them and she had the honor of being their flower girl. Becky's nephew was Carly's partner in crime and they made quite the pair. The ceremony went smoothly and Carly was a success and dropped all of her flower petals. I wasn't able to get a good shot of the bride and groom with my camera - I will try to find one to share.






Catching Up

Sorry it's been so long. April kept us busy every weekend and during the week we were beginning to pack. We are preparing for our two moves and trying to stay somewhat organized. I think the organization is going to disappear, but we are packing and starting to move things to our temporary location. Thankfully, we are set to close on our current home 5/19 and plan to be out the prior weekend. Some friends of ours own a rental house, that happens to be empty in May and June, and have rented it to us for the month and a half that we suspect we will need a place to live. Our builder still thinks we can be in our new home by the end of June, so keep your fingers crossed. Otherwise, we may be calling some of you for a place to stay :) That's the quick update for us. I have included some pictures from the last month.



This is my friend's little girl that is hanging out with us during the summer. She and Carly are six months apart and get along great!



Playing outside



Silver Dollar City was extra exciting for Carly this spring. This year she is over 36 inches tall, can you believe it?! Thanks to her height, she was able to ride more of the rides and she had plenty of volunteers to accompany her. Papa, Great Aunt Sharon, and Uncle Jody had the honors this trip and Carly loved them all! She even got to ride the lady bugs by herself. That was quite a moment, expressing her independence and venturing out on her own.
