new beginnings

today is the day....it is officially done! our first house is no longer ours. it really hasn't been for a few weeks now, but today it will belong to someone else. i hope it will be a great home for them...as it was for us. it feels weird to say that it is not our home anymore, but it feels great to call our new home "our home." we love it....it's feeling more like home everyday. we're still trying to put stuff away, though i think that will be an ongoing process for a while. i had to put a picture of the girls last night in their room before we moved. they were so excited to sleep on the floor!

this little girl is one of a kind....well, maybe a second edition (she is just like her ohie...she likes all things that sparkle and glitz...along with "tools"!! during the moving process if we heard the drill going we had to go make sure it wasn't alaina...because if it was lying around and we were were out of site it would be in her hands, drill buzzing) the other day we had to go to the hardware store....again...and she couldn't have been happier. she wanted to spend her money on a tape measure. she knew exactly what she wanted...but couldn't decide between sizes. i was cracking up. she really wanted a drill, but they were out of her price range;-)
yesterday papa and ohie got their boat we we broke it in. the girls were up at 6:30 in the morning asking when the boat was coming. such a nice boat and so much fun. we can't wait to spend the summer on the lake, sunbathing and swimming off the "papaohie." do you like the coconuts and watermelon floating below. the girls thought it was hilarious....mya is already swimming in the lake. it was a little chilly, but still refreshing. so much fun!!
36 wks...she'll be here soon!!!!

Love reading about all of this progress! I feel like we've waited so long for this baby, Toni and Bruce's house to be finished and your new one to close. And then, one day, just like that, it's all coming to fruition! LOVE IT!

Hi Rimbo family. I found your website after I googled names of old friends I've lost touch with. Tell Toni and Bruce, Rita and Don Killam said "hello" and greetings from Brea, California. ritak@pacbell.net
