Home

We got our shipping crate today. We had a ton of stuff. We unload several things, but we still have several boxes both full and empty laying around It feels more like home now that we have our things in our house, and not just borrowed things. There is so much that just makes it feel more like home such as pictures, dishes, books, etc. There are some things that we wish we hadn't brought, and something that we were hoping were in it, but now know we left at home because of lack of space. We have a ton of belongings, and I don't know where we are going to put it all. Hopfully we will get it all set up soon. It will probably take all week at least, but when it is all set up we will be home. We have this picture that my grandfather painted, and in Indiana we had it hung in our living room, and when we opened that box and put up the picture above the mantle in our living room, it just made our house feel like home. When we finally get everything in the house set up, we can start to set up our Weird American Kids Clubhouse (aka W.A.K.C.) That will be so cool when we do get that set up.

We will try to update our
picture website soon with picturers of our house now, and of other events that have happened in our life in Australia.

Random question of the post: Is spinach better cooked or raw?


Quotes of the post: Me-"I sent you an email today"(talking to Elizabeth Enas)
Elizabeth: "Well than I probably won't get it until tomorrow"
Tamara and I found that funny, but maybe you had to be there.

Dad:"We can start having people over now that we have our house"
Me:"We didn't have our house before?"
Dad:"Nope, it was in a box"

Nathan, do I get points for this post. As you can see, charity commented on it yesterday. I did post it yesterday, but something happened, so it wasnt showing up. I did post it yesterday, but it wasnt showing up. It is all because our computer messed up. I have 3 witnesses that I did post it yesterday.
