Feeling "Goldilox-ish"

For Les and I, our 4 years in Arizona just "clicked." We found jobs we enjoyed, wonderful friends, and lots of recreational opportunities. We moved back to the midwest 2 1/2 years ago...already. It's taken some trial and error to get adjusted...but I think we finally got it right. We tried out a variety of jobs and living arrangements before settling into a lifestyle we enjoy.

This past weekend we moved into our new "home". (It was two years ago to the day that we were moving into our Verona home.) With Ryan's help we got moved, unpacked, and decorated for the holidays. It was a lot of work, but the payoff is fantastic on these cold, dark winter nights. We are looking forward to hosting my family in our home for Christmas.

And, on another note...Eva started walking on Friday, December 14! She is still a little unsteady but she will walk by herself from point A to point B. For us, that has been the highlight of the season!
