we are a happy family!

We are moving in a matter of days. Our whole life has become boxes. Where can we get boxes? Who will give us boxes? I wonder if they have boxes? What should we put in this box? This move is a little different because it is so temporary. We basically have two moves in one. Everything for Vermont has to fit in my little car, but we only have two weeks to get from Vermont to Arizona, and we have to stop in Minnesota to pick up all of our other stuff that my parents have been kind enough to begrudgingly let us store.
Jake is in extreme packing mode. After a 29 hour car trip home from Utah last Sunday, I came home to find nearly everything packed. I couldn't even get to my side of the bed because giant wardrobe boxes were everywhere. I guess it is better to be prepared than hurry at the last minute...but seriously.


We had a lovely time with Aysia this past weekend. I had recently gone through my cedar chest and found an old tea set I had painted many years ago, and had set it in the garage sale pile. However, when Aysia saw it she immediately fell in love with it and, needless to say, we all played "tea" for a majority of the weekend.
She is getting so grown up (and sassy) we can't believe it. Since we are moving away, we have been taking a lot of pictures with her.




Here are some of my favorites:










We like to frequent the park.

I love the tea set! Aysia is so pretty! That looks like quite the lovely, healthy, fancy salad she is eating! What a good mother you are :)
