We're here!

We were packed up on Monday the 11th (by the worst packers/movers in the whole world), cleaned Tuesday the 12th (thank you Cedar Hill ward Ladies for coming to help!), and flew to Louisville, Kentucky Wednesday the 13th (after some last minute goodbyes to the Walters and thanks to Tawny for driving us to Mesa).When the lady at the airport put a big plastic bag on the car seat she said, "In the summer a lot of people travel with babies, so sometimes we run out of bags. You should consider saving this for your return trip." Randon replied, "We're one way." And it sunk in. I cried through security. Kenlee was the perfect baby on the flight. She ate during take-off, slept the entire time, and ate during landing. A woman behind us said, "I didn't hear one peep the whole flight!" I know, I have a dream child, and she's pretty to boot! :)

On the Plane

When we arrived, John and Isaac and Easton were there to pick us up. We drove an hour through BEAUTIFUL Kentucky to get to their home in Lexington. I saw my first firefly (or lightning bug as they are more commonly called there) and it was absolutely breathtaking. Friday morning we (Lisa and her boys, and Randon and Kenlee and I) headed to Ohio. When we arrived around 4:00 our house wasn't quite ready so we played at the beach (which is 4 minutes from my house). So beautiful, so fun, so awesome!

The movers came Saturday morning and all of our stuff was in my noon. It was funny trying to get unpacked between Lisa and I, her two rambunctious boys, and our two babies! We sort of did things in shifts. But I was so glad to have them here so I didn't feel sad and lonely. But we got quite a bit done Saturday and Monday.We went to our ward on Sunday and everyone was very friendly! I'm excited to get to know more people and dive right into play groups and activities. Rachel and Allen stopped by Sunday night on their way to Detroit (which is where they will be moving soon). It was lovely to see them and visit. We are thrilled they will be only two hours away!

Randon started work Monday. Lisa and her boys left today. And here I sit blogging while my pretty one is asleep in her swing. Dena had her baby the day before we flew here.Ammon Jacob Clonts arrived 7/12/11 at 7:55! 7 lbs. 11 oz. 19 1/2 inches long (exactly the same as Kenlee)! He is Dena's little twin and so adorable! It broke my heart that I missed seeing him and being there for Dena. So near and yet so far. I'm not going to lie, I miss home. I have never really handled change well. But hopefully I can make new friends quickly and find fun things to do so my mind will be more occupied.

I will post pictures of my house when it is completely put together!
