Well after 14 months in PA we are headed back to Colorado. The project Scott was on was cancelled, yes it was supposed to be 3-5 years. something with the PUC and a National Forrest were not going to "fly." So here we sit awaiting a house. We are so very grateful Scott applied every place and was offered 4 positions in 4 different states so of course Colorado out weighed all the others in all aspects so it was meant to be.
We have been trying to do a bit of touring we have had 2 visitors since the last blog, Bonnie(Scott's Mom) and my Sister. The winter months flew by and the winter was not to harsh and the spring was not anywhere near as wet as the previous. The girls did great in school their "first" semester, Faith made the honor roll and Hope was advanced in many of her classes (they don't give letter grades out in Elementary here ~strange. Levi is running and talking away just going and going. He does some sign language which is exciting to see him use it immediately after we teach him.
We were in Michigan for my Aunt Pat's memorial over Memorial Day weekend and were able to see family we haven't seen in years not just a few but like 30, crazy I tell you. and my sister drove back with us so we had a bit of visit with her which was so great. Mom and Faith were in Michigan for Grandparents University at the end of June and stayed for a few weeks to visit and a bit of and extra visit due to the naughty van (agh!) They got home and Bonnie arrived a couple days later. We travelled to Amish country and saw beautiful quilts, went to quilt museum, and we went to Lopez Pa where Mema grew up, it was so fascinating driving done all the roads Mema talked about and seeing her grandmother's grave was so wonderful to share with her. I think she enjoyed just hangin out with us. Bonnie and mom went back to Colorado Mom for the month of August, Jim's birthday and sister's birthday. The girls swam in our free pool and played with friends almost every day!
School has started we are trying to get into a routine but it will soon change Scott leaves Wednesday for Colorado. He will search for a house we are going to be looking everywhere for Evergreen to Brighton hopefully a rent to own situation but we will see. I think everyday of something I will miss here...today it was the flowers, there is always something blooming even in the winter. Yesterday it was my friends here and the girls friends, we have made good friends here and I hope they will come visit us someday. Well I will sign off for now I will try harder to blog more, the facebook monster takes over and I think it is enough and I know it isn't. Well Colorado friends I hope to see you soon and I will get intouch when we are settled if not before
