We made it! After two weeks of bittersweet goodbyes and packing in Michigan we arrived on Monday, March 28th. (our new contact information is on the sidebar)To answer the question several of you have asked, "Well, do you like the house?" The answer is Yes! We all love the location, the views of the mountains, and the access to both things the city has to offer (shopping, events etc.) and also trails and open space parks for biking, hiking, and exploring. It doesn't quite feel like "our place" yet, but every day that sense is growing.

We are not quite as overwhelmed with boxes and unpacking as we were 2 weeks ago, but the task of settling in is still a pretty daunting one. We've decided to make a "Stepping Stones" list of all the little discoveries and accomplishments that are helping us "cross" from living in Michigan/Costa Rica to Colorado. Getting library cards and meeting a neighbor are just a few of the things on our list!
We've had warm enough weather to bike in shorts and tee-shirts and also have had a big snow storm! Well, of course, for Michiganders "big" is relative :) The kids were thrilled to have snow to play in for the first time this year. I was a little less thrilled since that meant finding the boxes with all the winter gear!
