Things we are doing and such.

STILL NO CAMERA!!

I'm going crazy waiting for the battery charger, everyday I keep hoping it will come. I think when it does, it's going to be more exciting then Christmas. It's just hard to be going through so many changes, during an entire month, and not being able to take a single picture! Oh well, I guess that's the natural consequence of not being responsible huh, I don't like natural consequences!

We're adjusting pretty well over here. It's hard to believe that it's already been almost a month! Philadelphia is beginning to feel a lot more like home, and it's also getting easier to get around. There is so much to discover here that it's almost overwhelming. I only hope that in the four years, we are able to do everything we want to do!

Last week we took a trip to Atlantic City, the shore in New Jersey. It's the "shore," not the beach. We went with Jordan and her boys, and Mike and Amber, and their kids. Our kids were thrilled to be back at the ocean. Jayda had friends to play with, and Skyler was provided with a smorgasbord of sand to shovel into his mouth. The shore was really pretty, with a fun boardwalk and an air-show that lasted the entire time we were there. We were also able to meet a few other students who happened to be there the same day. It was a lot of fun. Now we can say we've been to New Jersey too!

Other then that, we've been spending the rest of the time getting to know the area and the people. I took the kids to a playgroup with the other moms and kids in the ward. It was a lot of fun getting to know the girls, and everyone has been so friendly. The great part about it too is that most of them have kids around the same age as my kids, which makes Jayda especially happy! There are quite a few parks just a few minutes away from our house, as well as a lot of other fun things for the kids to do. Hopefully when we start doing them, I'll have a dang camera!

Glenn went to his dental school orientation last Thursday, which was exciting for all of us. He was able to meet some of his fellow students, and recieved a bunch of instruments and supplies. It's so exciting to actually be starting something that we've been working so hard for, for so many years. I'm really proud of him.

Well, I could go on forever, but I'll end with that. I hope everyone else is doing well, xoxo!
