Last week in California

Just one week until we leave California. I can't believe it. I've been here over six years, Mark seven. It will be hard to say goodbye. California has been good to us, many happy memories.

I think we are making good progress on the move. We've been packing little by little every day. Our shipping containers should arrive on Weds and then we get two days to fill them up. Lily and Elsa have been pretty excited by the process. They keep pulling treasures out of the closet. They especially like the packing part. Every once in a while I'll hear stirring from another part of the house. And a small voice will say "Elsa helping" "Lily cleaning" and I will find them trying to load or unload boxes. It is very cute.



Here are my helpers taking a break. This is their special place to read books (on top of the toy chest). We looked over and Elsa was wearing her cowgirl hat.


My curly-haired girls looking at Mommy. (L,E). It has been really hot the past week. The girls have gone swimming in the backyard every day in their "bathing-soups" (what they call their bathing suits). Good practice for the heat of Indiana and NJ.


Lily dancing across the livingroom floor. That child just loves to dance. Ringaround the rosy is her favorite. And she's quite a singer. She just loves Twinkle Twinkle.


Elsa dancing on the boxes~very Olivia Newton John, Let's get physical. She put the shoe on her foot all by herself and was very proud.
