Here we come!!!

The bags are packed, the taxis are coming to pick us up in an hour and our flight leaves a few hours after that. See you all in New York!!!

Ch..Ch...Changes

10 days!!!  Can you believe it?  I barely can.  

Things on my to do list...

1. Finish off all the food in the house.  This won't be hard.  We're down to the very last of just about everything except desserts.  Which is good and bad.  Good that we get a new yummy dessert every night and bad for the waistline.  

2. Laundry.  I can't wait for a dryer.  Hanging everything takes for..ev..er.  Really.  Trying to stay on top of laundry for a family of five is hard but when your washer takes 2 hours on the fast cycle and you have to wait a whole day for it to dry.  Please.  

3. Enjoy Spain.  It's been an incredible experience.  I can't believe I've lived in Europe for 2 years.  I never even wanted to come and visit.  I'm so glad we did it.  I've now have a true love for Europe.  

4.  Organize.  Sort my apartment into 3 categories.  Coming with us, air shipment and boat.  This sounds a lot easier than it is.  

5. Pack.  This is the easy part.  I only have to pack what comes with us.  Luckily, Drew's firm pays for packers.  I love this.  

6. Wait.  Yeah, I know there are only 10 days left but I'm a little anxious.  

7. Prepare a talk.  My least favorite thing on the list especially in Spanish.  

8.  Play with the kids.  This is the fun part.  I just need to remember to do it.  I love going to the parks and playing outside.  Hopefully it will stop raining so we can do this.  

9.  Go and check out Drew's new office.  They moved in today.  Drew loves the new place.  Too bad he doesn't get to enjoy it longer.  

Happy Birthday Stelly!!!

Stella turned 3 today!!!  We had a great day playing at the park and being with friends and family.  It was really low key but still a fun day.  First she wanted to help me take Isaac to school.  Then we came home and made a strawberry cake with chocolate frosting.  After I asked her if she wanted to paint, play play doh, draw or play dolls together but she just wanted to take a nap.  So she lied down for a quick nap before heading off to pick Isaac up from school. We then met up with some friends and headed to the park.  The kids had fun running around but got hungry fast so we walked down to Burger King. (aka the french fry store)  Dad met up with us for lunch.  (which is always fun!)  After lunch we went to another park and played around for a while.  Then off to another friend's house for dinner.  And finally home to open a few presents and go to bed!  

Happy Birthday Stelly.  We love you so much and are so glad we get to enjoy you everyday.  I hope you had a great day.
