Welcome!

We decided that we would break down and get a family blog now that we are away from most of our family. We thought it would be nice to share with family and friends.

Washington is great and we feel SO at home. Everything is just falling into place and it is definetly where we are supposed to be. This move made it so that Dana doesn't have to work, but she will be watching her cute little niece, Emma, when he mom is at work a day or two a week.

Derek is doing amazing and Trenton and Dana couldn't be more proud of him. He is working his butt off with everything and cannot wait to actually get started and be done with him schooling (and be back home with the family for more than a week).

Trenton loves the trees. He is always saying that he wants to climb them and live in the trees. He has grown a good couple of inches and LOVES being a "good cousin". He takes great care of Emma and helps calm her down and make her laugh. He loves to go on the boat and be on the lakes with the ducks. He went on the tube with Dana and is begging to go again all the time. He has made lots of new friends. Besides the lake, his favorite place to go is the races at Skagit. He wakes up every morning and asks if we can go watch Lightning McQueen go really, really fast, around and around in circles. It is really cute.

Well, that's enough for the night and I am exausted so it is time to go to bed. Hope everything is well with everyone. Make everyday worth living.
