We saw the Blue Man Group while in Vegas. Hubs loved them so much that he snagged a dvd on the internet for a few bucks. He let the kids watch it when we got home and they LOVE it!!! They both get to dancing and banging on the couches like they are little Blue Men. It is hilarious to watch!!

First day at school
Well my little babies started school today. They are going to a school that takes PreK kids ages 3 and up all the way to big kids 8th graders!!!. I was pretty apprehensive about them going today. I was worried about them in the cafeteria so much that we practiced eating out of our lunch kits last night for dinner. Also I was scared they would wander out the front of the school with a stranger. So I kept making them repeat all morning who was picking them up. I guess I wouldn't be so worried if they were going to daycare but they are actually going to elementary school. So in a sense today was their official first day of school that parents experience when their kids go to kindergarten. The funny thing is I thought my kids would be sad to stay and watch mom and dad walk out. No just the opposite they both hugged us and said see ya later. Surprising to myself I didn't cry, I guess because they did'yn cry. Plus they have had such a good attitude about school that it just felt right. So off to day #2 tomorrow.
Our clothes are all ready for tomorrow!!!

Happy Birthday Momma!!!
My mom's birthday was Sunday...She turned 29 for the 30th time or so. We celebrated by eating lunch then heading over to my parents house for homemade double layer chocolate cake...yummo!!! I hope she had a great day. 
122,222 turns 122,226
Well we are finally back online and ready to face the day without digging through boxes to find underwear. It is official we are in WACO!!! Woot Woot...
It is definitely taking some time to get used to this small town of 122,222 now 122,226. There are some definite differences between Waco and The Woodlands.
Lot less traffic, snooty people, things to do, restaurants to eat at (but my fav is here so all is good in that category), pools, parks, high dollar anything...to name a few. But with all this we got some great trade-offs...small town feel, slow pace, the fact you can get anywhere in town in less than 15 minutes, no humidity, good country folks, and of course one of the main reasons we moved here...my parents. It is going to take us some time to get used to things over here, learn how to get around without the GPS, and make some friends. We are going to head to church this weekend so hopefully that will help in the friend department. I have been meeting some interesting people at school. Some really funny gals who are cool to be around and looks like we have lots in common. It really looks like that my year at school is going to be great. I'm hoping it is my best yet!!
We are also having to get used to the house we are living in. It is a one story and we catch ourselves saying "Go upstairs for such and such." It is driving hubs crazy trying to learn all the little sounds that go bump in the night here also. One night he jumped out of bed when he heard something come from the bathroom in our room. He was ready to pounce on whoever/whatever it was...turns out the sticky hook on the door had popped off.
So wish us luck in our new town and pray we don't get lost often. We are excited to be on our little adventure and look forward to making this home.
