Anyway, we have made some fun memories in this little cottage and are excited to have my parents and youngest sister come stay in it for Easter while they are visiting us. It should be a fun week.
We have been on some roller coasters of emotions with all the house-hunting and Trevor starting a new school and all. I think that has been harder on me than on him. I just find myself emotionally exhausted with all the transition sometimes. Last week Savannah and I spent a lot of time visiting dance studios, since she is going crazy without dance class, and I am waiting to put her in a preschool here until next fall. We also found and visited a pediatrician, and I have an appt. at my new dr. this week. Slowly but surely we are checking things off the list of things to do when moving to a new area.
I am really liking it here, though. People are very friendly and welcoming (for the most part), it is beautiful, and there are lots of fun places to shop! By shop, I mean that Savannah and I like to roam and check out new places. She is my little shopper. She can last longer than I can! I am excited for spring because then we can get out more and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Here are some pics of some of the fun activities we have done the last few weeks:
Fishing off the dock behind the cottage
Free staff night at a Navy basketball game - Savannah wanted to track down and meet the mascot!
Our first ever Lacrosse experience - the deputy of finance at USNA invited us to watch the game in his suite - it was awesome! I mean, I still don't understand Lacrosse, but this was definitely the way to watch it!
Watching sailboats at USNA - Trevor has decided he wants to learn how to sail for his birthday:)
Snuggling in our favorite chair at the cottage - too bad it stays with the cottage! I love my little munchkins!
P.S. I am craving chocolate chip cookies this pregnancy - Grandma, can you please come make me some?

WOW!! I get tired just reading about it.. you are amazing. I hope that the house comes through and that the experience is wonderful. You'll have to let me know where it is. I hope you are enjoying the Academy. We went to John Paul Jones' burial site-- that was COOL!
From what it sounds like, life up there is pretty good.:) Send me your address and I'll mail you some of my famous oatmeal choco-chip cookies!:) NO NUTS!!
That is crazy to hear how different the market is up there. Houses here are on the market for a minimum of 3-4 months. It would be a blessing to sell our's quickly.
Congrats on finding a place! I'll cross my fingers for you that all goes well. The pictures are all very cute and it looks like your kids are having a great time. Good luck with everything!!
congrats on the move!!! also, did you get my blog invite? i think i sent it to the wrong e-mail address the first time...i'm a doofus.
I want grandma's chocolate chip cookies too! Yay for the new post, and the cute pics! I love that Trev is planning a sailing adventure for my visit. I love your family (said in the voice of the incredibles).
Love your guts guys!
Oh my gosh, I could not be more excited to come next week! Tell Trev I want to go sailing too! Love ya!
Oh congrats . . . maybe (smile). I am hoping to be on the other end of this and getting close to what I am asking and gosh, if I could get more HOORAY! It's all about pricing right?
Miss you!!
