Daddy Rocks!

Patrick and Maddie arrived in Scottsdale on Friday evening and on Saturday they met the truck at our new house and helped unload. As of this afternoon, both boys rooms, the guest room, kitchen, dining room, living room and garage are all unpacked. Granted...I'm not sure where anything is or how many times I might move it around, but at least I don't have to deal with the boxes! He has had some help from Grandma and Grandpa who were passing through on their way back to their "home" (currently parked in Casa Grande). Patrick is most proud of the fact that both cars can already fit in the garage!



Maddie is enjoying the new yard and the weather. Apparently she just sits outside and looks around. She is frustrated that she can't see much from the backyard (the yard is walled in since it is a zero lot line) so she also sits at the front windows and watches the world go by and everyone playing at the park across the street.


Patrick took Teddy Bear with him on his trip across country and sent back photos along the way of all the things Teddy Bear did and saw. Drew has enjoyed them so much and I am putting them into a photo book for him. I think it has really helped the transition process and understanding what to expect when we get there.




Patrick flies to Knoxville on Friday and will turn right around and fly with us back to Arizona on Saturday. I think we are all ready for this move to be completed and to start our lives out there!
