Our week in a nutshell

This week we are still working on finding our rythm and figuring life out in NH. So here is our typical day.
-wake up breakfast/DVD watching(we don't have TV)
-TV off get dressed/brushteeth/ make beds/ put away pjs
-work pages for kids while mom does chores/Elliot colors(mostly on paper, but she's one)
-EXERCISE we go on long walks and the kids mostly ride their bikes. We have some good hills so they are learning for the first time to ride down hill.
-home for lunch and rehydration. The humidity takes a lot out of you, so we have to all have water bottles, all the time.
-playdates with friends or prescheduled activities.
MON.library day

-then we wake up Mike and I try to get out of the house and do grocery shopping or a family outing.
-then Mike is off to work and I am try my darndest to not be too bored. Me and the kids do crafts, read, visit friends, run in sprinklers (the kids do, I watch), and more movie watching.

So this is us right now. I am signing the boys up for soccer which will start in Sept. along with school. Caleigh is going to be doing a cartooning workshop at the library Mon. night, but I think it is only two weeks.

The community does have storytime, and other family activities in the park every Wed. and even sometimes Mon. So we walk to those.
We are really enjoying NH and love and miss you all.

I was just at "Liberty Park" in Salt Lake and was missing our free lunch outings with the kids. We packed our own lunch, but it just wasn't the same. Glad to hear that your blending into the activities in your community. Talk to you soon!
