After living out of 4 suitcases for the past 5 months, our things from Japan finally arrived last Tuesday...all 49 boxes! Although we were ecstatic to finally have our stuff, we aren't quite sure where to put everything. We are still in a small rental home and hope to be moving soon, so for now we just have boxes stacked everywhere. This was right after the movers left.
Bryant soon found a box of toys and within minutes we had toys scattered all over the house.
Over the last few days I have been going through boxes, stacking them in every closet and corner that I can find and have cleared out the living room except for a stack of boxes along one of the walls. It sure was a lot easier to keep the house clean when we only had 4 suitcases of stuff!
Also this week, we went to see Cailey perform in the Kindergarten Luau. The last month or so they have been learning songs for the luau and a lot about Hawaii. Yesterday Cailey asked me if we could go to Hawaii.
This is Cailey's teacher Ms. Boreson. She has been a great teacher.
I just thought I'd throw in one more picture of the kids in their new pj's and sunglasses.

i am just glad it made it...i have heard such horror stories! i bet your kids could think of creative ways to play on/with those boxes! :-) i laughed when i saw cailey's presentation...man, first school in japan, now hawaiian dancing...you are raising quite a cultured little girl! (oh, and if you do take her to hawaii, would you take me to?)
you are a trooper to live out of a suitcase for that long. I don't hardly think that I would be able to manage. What can I say. . . you are basically amazing. It's good to have you back on this side of the Pacific. :)
Just today I took a few bags to the D.I. and thought we have way too much STUFF....no matter how hard I try to keep it away! I've decided having 6 children just adds up to a lot of THINGS! Can't wait to hear the latest on the house...hang in there!
Poor thing. I just can't help but laugh. I am sure you think the same thing. You never stop amazing me! Hang in there you trooper!
Sooo..did you get the short sale house? And is it in Continental Ranch??
