We are in Orem, Utah

We finally made it! We are so thrilled to be here. My parent's did a beautiful job remodeling their house and basement for us and it is so nice to finally be settling in - yes, we have spent the last 2 1/2 weeks trying to unpack (and find a way for our eccentric, tie-dye tastes to meld with Kira's parent's more conventional ones (: ).



Since arriving, some joys have been:

-going on walks with Kira's parents and watching them play with Pace
-celebrating Andy's first father's day with Pace in the Kelty pack
-getting to know some of the college students and young married couples in our church
-attending the "Living in Utah" class at our church
-the world cup! GO ENGLAND!

-watching Pace eat solids
-lots of people excited about buying t-shirts from us when we get things going

Some frustrations have been:
-fatigue! (mostly from hanging out with my parents and watching the world cup; so things that need to get done, don't get done till late at night!)
-unpacking/lack of routine and schedule
-lack of community
-starting our business has sort of been on hold since we arrived. Our printer gets here later this week so hopefully that will inspire us to get going. You would think the lack of income would be motivation enough...hmm...

Philly friends, we miss you! Thank you for your phone calls and emails! They are SO encouraging!
