Finally








I've been on Monika's case to write a new blog now that we're in Georgia, but she's had a lot to do. So I figured I'd log on and write something and play on her pride a bit. :-)

We've had quite the adventure in our move to Georgia. Nothing has gone quite the way we have planned. This includes issues with our renter in Arizona, issues with the movers in coming here, and just stress from the move.

It took forever to get our internet hooked up. It took just as long for DirecTV to get our satellite dish installed. Now it is all working, and things are starting to settle in a bit.

Zack absolutely loves his school. He's making friends fast, and growing up even faster. He's been a big helper to his mom and is a great example for his younger brothers.

Parker is still quite the character, and has quickly made friends with the neighborhood children.

Tucker is getting another tooth, and is very close to walking. He is standing on his own, and walks along the couches and anything else he can pull himself up on. His favorite game is climbing the stairs.

Yesterday was Labor Day, and we took the boys to downtown Atlanta to the Children's Museum. They had an absolute blast. We went with Palmers, and the kids played together. Zack's favorite part of the museum was where he was able to operate a crane that picked up balls from another aparatus, and then he could turn the crane and dump the balls into a box where they would return through an elaborate process to the box where he originally picked them up. He had more fun dumping the balls on people's heads who happened to be standing in the zone that the crane could reach.

We also have 2 deer that live in the woods behind our house (there are probably more). We see them regularly. Parker comes running up the stairs from the basement to tell us that there is a baby "Darr" outside. The kids love it.

We hope that everyone is doing well. We miss our friends in Arizona, and hope that many of you take the opportunity to visit us someday.
