Getting Settled

Peyton, Tevin, Elena, Carla (or Olivia...sorry I can't tell!),Marlee, the last triplet and Anastasia
Let me just start by saying how good it is to be home! This last week has been so nice. Back to our own home with our own stuff, back to old friends, and some kind of "normal". We are still not totally unpacked or settled but we are getting there. It has been fun to catch up with our friends this week and for Marlee to get back out and play with the friends she has missed all summer. On Sunday evening we went to meet our new neighbors (they moved into your house Rachel!). When we got outside all the neighbors were out visiting so we joined them. Marlee decided she wanted her Snow White dress on and before I knew it ALL the girls wanted to be princesses and we had our very own little Vermillion Princess Parade if you will. It was pretty funny all the girls in their costumes. Here are a few of the pictures I got....sorry neighbors if I butcher any spellings! Tevin had a stuffed kitty that looked real and they were all enthralled with it...
Cinderella and Snow White Smoochin'...I snuck it from the end of the building
Yesterday was hot and humid and we are not allowed to have "pools" at our complex...
But no one said anything about buckets! Thanks for the invite Nicole!
Here are all the girls "swimming" yesterday.
You gotta do what you gotta do...
Oh, and I almost forgot my good news!
1. Makenna slept from 9 p.m. til 9 a.m. last night. FIRST time sleeping through the night!!!! YAY!

2. I had a (small) glass of Milk last night with my chocolate chip cookie! First time in almost 7 months I have had milk to drink.....Happiness is....

It was AWESOME...now to see if Kenna reacts....

ADORABLE! Small town/college life is so different. I have to admit that I totally miss that!

Thanks about the pictures! I have like 6 weeks or something like that! I try not to be too on top of that count down...it slows everything down! I'm glad you are back safe and having fun!

Love your pictures. I'm gonna post my princess pictures soon too. Wish we could go to the beach with you, but we'll be out of town. Thanks for the invite though! :)

There is nothing better than home - I remember one day realizing that when I said "home" I was talking about Vermillion instead of Utah. It's really a nice place and we miss it but especially all of our friends!! Marlee is so lucky to have so many girlfriends!! The princess party is so hilarious!
