So I left at our last post at reaching the hotel. Because all of our stuff was on a truck being shipped here we decided to stay in the hotel across from Oxy's office so A) we wouldn't be sleeping in an empty house with no blankets and B) so Craig could just walk across the street in the morning.It worked out great until check out time when I needed to get ALL our luggage, two girls and a cat that wasn't even suppose to be in the hotel, out to the car. Thankfully 2 of our suite cases had wheels so I made the girls pitch in, which they weren't thrilled about! That left me with a wheeled suite case, a bag, a backpack, the cat, jackets and my purse. I was able to hide the cat carrier under my purse and the jackets and the rest I lugged outside. We made it to the car without Emma being seen and I even managed to snap a pic of the girls :)
After getting the girls loaded up we got the keys to our place and then headed over there! The girls were super excited at first but that only lasted a few days, then Aubrey started whining that she wanted to go back to her "old new house" (our last place was always reffered to as the new house) Even now she will start whining that when she's not in a good mood...Anyway back to the first few days. Instead of buying blankets which we already had enough of, we got sleeping bags since we plan on camping this summer, plus I was hoping a cool Buzz or Princess sleeping bag would make bedtime easier. It did not.
Friday night Evvy got sick after dinner, I think she either drank too much chocolate milk or hers was bad because she was better by morning and no one else got sick. Sunday we drove up to Powderhorn and showed the girls snow. Aubrey was so disappointed that there was no snow when we arrived and couldn't wait to go out and play in it...until she realized how could it was! Evvy was asleep when we got there but woke up in time for a few pics, though she wasn't happy to go from a warm cozy carseat to 25* weather.
Our moving truck showed up Monday morning and aside from a few mishaps *ahem droping our brand new dryer or standing on and breaking our garage shelving* everything went well. We also got our cars back, which meant having to return our rental Suburban :'( We didn't even have it for a full week but I'm hooked! If we can somehow manage to afford a suburban when it comes time to trade in our Caliber I would love to have one! Craig on the other hand doesn't feel the same way :(
Anyway I think that's about it...Aubrey still isn't thrilled to be here, Evvy has been clingy and both girls are super cranky and cry anytime I try to go shopping but other than that things are pretty much the same, just a little colder and in a different state :)
...Oh, different state reminds me, Craig is in
love with
Cabela's. I'm pretty sure he saw all the guns and ammo (which isn't locked up like you'd find it in CA) and it was over! Any chance to go and he is all over it! He even wanted to go to Target with me because it's just a short walk through the mall to Cabela's :)
