The Rest of May

We arrived in Williamsburg in mid-May. When we got there my sister was so nice to let us stay at their already full house for a whole week while we waited for the keys to our house.

It was so fun getting to spend time with all the kids on their turf, getting to know their routines.




Benny wanted to go to Colonial Williamsburg for one of his last "vacation" days.


His first day at his new job!

Once we got keys to the house, we got busy finding deals on Craigslist and other re-sale sites/stores to get things we needed. First time owners of a washer/dryer.

Our pod full of our belongings from San Diego arrived in the middle of the week. We figured we would enlist the help of Chris and maybe some others that following weekend to unload it. Instead, Katie and Chris said they wouldn't mind popping over after work that afternoon to help get us started.

As soon as they got here, I ordered pizzas for everyone, went to go pick them up, and by the time I got home everything was almost completely unloaded. It took them a total of 46 minutes! A record. And I did almost nothing.

But the pizza was good!

We are so incredibly grateful to Katie and Chris's family for everything they've done to help us get settled here. We absolutely love being near family and we are loving our new home!
