I was attacked by a crane while on my walk today...

Just kidding, I really wasn't but I do see a lot of them when I am out and I was just thinking that if I did get attacked by one it would make life quite entertaining. I figured that I could really write whatever I wanted since there are only 3 people who look at our blog:) This is what is up with us lately:

We are officially moved into our new house and have been for a while. I still have a little bit of painting to do before we have any visitors from the US soon but are feeling at home and liking most things about our new area. Maybe, I will even get some art work done for our walls so we don't look so transient. Chris has made some really nice furniture for us that is making life a little more comfortable, but he can go into more detail about that if he wants since they are his creations. We have some 'wonderful' neighbors from India who think that we walk up our stair too loudly and are constantly banging on the wall. It is 'fun'. Besides that though, we love it here. We are close to just about everything that we could possibly need. There are several families in our neighborhood that are in our ward which is a nice change.

The 3 youngest kids really like their new school and have all made friends and are feeling more comfortable then they have in a long time. Abby even told me that she doesn't want to go back to the US until she gets married, that is how much she is liking it. Don't ask me where she got the 'get married' part from, but that is Abby for you, always planning ahead.

Hannah has moved to an international school to get some intensive language lessons. She loves the school and is very happy to be hanging out with a few American kids again. It is also an easier level of education and she is just happy to be doing something that is not incredibly hard for the moment, huh Hannah? As soon as she is done with the program, she can go back to Codarts if she wants to continue her dancing. We are now in the process of finding somewhere else for her to dance while she is away from the school.

Chris is in Prague right now for work and has been for the last week. I will be joining him on Wed and staying until Sun. He may or may not be coming back with me. He may have stay an extra week, but we will see what Novell needs him to do. I just talked to him on the phone and he says that where he is staying it is pretty dumpy, but he has been to city center and says that it is amazing. I am very excited to go and see everything. It ought to be fun! We actually have our American friends' 3 year old boy staying with us while his parents and baby brother are in Spain until tomorrow. He is a pretty easy kid to deal with, but it is wearing me out and I think that he is ready for his family to get home. Anyway, our kids will be staying at their house while I am in Prague.

So, now everyone is all caught up on our lives and I will have to come up with more crane attack stories later because I have a RS lesson to prepare for tomorrow. Tot ziens! Till later!
