Do I really live in Florida?

Jared is back to school and we are settling in.... Here are some photos of the "Commons" building and law library on Jared's campus. Driving to the school this morning I questioned the reality of my surroundings again. I never planned to live in Florida, but here I am! We are eager to see what new experiences we will have ahead. I wonder when things will sink in and start to feel more normal. I hope to take some pictures of our home and post them in the next few days.

Frist trip to our beach

This spot is around 6 miles from our home. The condos provide shade in the morning or if you go in the evening-- like we did-- it is cool and you can see the sunset before taking the kids home for bedtime.

The boys already started a shell collection and it is one of the first decorations for our new home.

Beautiful sky at sunset!

Traveling

We enjoyed every minute of our trip out west and all the time with family! The boys first airplane trip was exciting too --here are a few photos of that. Then, we said a few sad goodbyes to Virginia and packed up our car to make the journey to Florida. We arrived last Sunday to a beautiful new home . Michael said today that people in Michigan and Utah must be praying for us. I don't think he knows exactly what he said but I think it is true. In between unpacking we are enjoying a little exploring around town.....

Harston cousins and reunion at Heartland

I took a few good videos of our time with the Harstons but not enough photos.... Here are a few:

Sophie and Jordan at Grandma's

The boys had lots of fun time with cousins

"Ella Bella"

Fun at the cabin!

Here is Grandpa and Grandma in kayaks! and Rachel and Rob taking some nephews out in the canoe.

Some of the crew played on shore at Smith and Moorehouse Reservoir while others created log rafts, jumped off the huge floating stump, or paddled around for the afternoon.
