We have arrived!!!

Well, we arrived safe and sound.  We actually had a great trip.  We didn't have to drive through ANY weather, and our mini van pulled the trailer fine.  It was nice to stay a day in Nauvoo.  We got to see some of the sights as well as go over to Carthage.  It was a really neat experience for me.  When we arrived in NY Josh's dad was here to greet us.  He helped a lot with the kids and even helped Josh start the railing.  We have yet to finish it, but all the ballisters are up and we hope to finish soon!!  It was really nice to see a familiar face right away as we arrived in such a not so familiar place.  Thanks Grandpa Cobb!  The kids had a lot of fun.  We also were able to get some chicks.  Josh is really happy about that.  He goes down to the basement to talk to them, it is his happy place!! :)  We are slowly getting things settled.  I hope to be done completly by Sept.  I would say sooner, but it feels like we have so much more to do still!!  I will get pictures out as soon as I get more organized.  Thanks for all your comments and your support.  We miss you all and love you all very much.  Please stay in touch!!  And don't forget you are all always welcome in our home!
