Moving....

Moving to another state with 5 children and 2 dogs is not a good time. The packers came on May 24th and loaded all our stuff on May 26th. Chris could not leave Omaha until June 1st, so we spent the week at Andrea's house. Thankfully she is wonderful and let us take over her house. I don't know what I would have done without her. There was no way that we would have been able to live in a hotel that long.
We left the night of May 31st. We thought if we left at the kids' bedtime we would be able to make some good time. Boy were we wrong. We left Omaha at 9pm with the intention of driving to Oklahoma City and spending the night. Well at 5:30am we were still about an hour away from Oklahoma City and Chris was falling asleep at the wheel, so we stopped and got a hotel room. We got about 3 hours of sleep and then we were back on the road. We left the hotel about 9:30am and didn't get into Rowlett until about 3:30pm. We then got to our house and found out the electricity had not been turned on, even though Chris had called and asked for it to be turned on that day. So since it was 90 degrees in the house we packed up what we needed and headed to the Hilton.
Since the kids had been in the car for two days we needed to get them out to do something fun, so we decided to take them on the sailboat ride. Britton and Mycayla had so much fun. I think the babies had fun too.
Emmett one his first boat ride

Britton was so excited when Captain Scott said that he could drive the boat. He was up there forever

Then Mycayla got a turn. She was nervous at first, but heck a 3 year old drove it forever and we didn't crash so it can't be that hard

They babies were funny when the wind was blowing in their face



Enjoying the boat ride. I think at this time Britton was driving and Chris was with him

Britton was very insistant that I wear a life jacket too, just like him so I was safe
