Getting Settled

We are now one week into our new adventure out here in Salt Lake. Each day seems to get a little better. We have been enjoying having Daddy home. He starts school tomorrow. We are almost unpacked and are thrilled to pieces to be getting our couch on Saturday. So sick of sitting on the floor. I have been brainstorming with my neighbors on ways to decorate cinderblock. Some suggestions have been paint, fabric, curtains. I need to do something. I guess this will be my own decorating challenge.

Anyhow, life out here is so much more than I expected. I was expecting a really young group, but its not. Everyone I have met so far is working on either their Masters degree or PHD. Our neighbors consist of law school students, medical students, historians, biologists, etc... Most of the women are stay-at-home gals like me with multiple children. It's such a fun environment. We are meeting new friends every time we go down to the courtyard. Noelle keeps watching out the window and lets us know when someone else is down there to play with. Today, we had our first play date with another neighbor. Yesterday we went to Hogle Zoo with my aunt and my cousin's son. (Loved it!) I am so homesick for friends and family, so keep up the blogs so we can stay posted! Dan starts tomorrow, so you'll probably hear alot more from me as I am about to become a student's wife again. Love you all and hope you are doing well!
