UTAH

I miss England so much but I am so happy to be home with my family and friends. I feel like we have been on turbo mode ever since our plane landed! Things are finally slowing down some and life is feeling somewhat normal. It's really strange not being able to go to my house because there are people living there. Until Brady and I know what in the world we are doing we're going to be doing there is no point moving back in or buying a new home. At this point we are staying at my in laws house. They have been so kind, not only do we live under their roof, but we drive their cars, and eat their food. We are sure lucky to have such an amazing supportive family.

One of my first days back my sister invited me to go tour the fire station. They had to book a date a month in advance. It was pretty cool, but the kids lost interest fairly quick. We still had fun though.

Fireman Bob (I don't remember his name), Grandma, Oscar, Lindsay, Oliver, Jager, Me, Millie, Kristin (one of Lindsay's best friends) and her little boy Issac

Millie started playing on a soccer team, well so far she has watched her team play soccer while she picks grass on the side lines. I'm so bummed. I really thought she was going to love playing, but she was mad when she realized that Brady and I wouldn't be on her team. She had her second game tonight and her coach got her in for a few minutes playing goalie, but she wasn't thrilled about it. Hopefully she we get more comfortable. I know she would love it if she would only give it a try. What to do...

Glad to have you home, but I bet sharing a home and being home is a shock to the system.
Off to give JH big hugs.

Hey girl,
Glad you made it back safe and sound. Why don't you guys come live in NYC??? Wouldn't that be great! There are tons of activities for kids and we would have so much fun!
