Day 33, Tuesday, May 20, 2008--Home!!

We're HOME! We've got the laundry going, and we've emptied out the fridge & freezer of the trailer, and stripped the linens, and we've got cupboards to empty and things to organize. We've been going through mail, and checking messages, and the kids are playing with the things they have missed (Isaac-Legos, Kaleb-his Webkinz, Noah-Playmobil horses & trailer). Ruby loves crawling here but is freaking out if she's separate from us. We've been so close to her at all times, she could hear us even when we layed her down for a nap in the trailer. Her crib is a little scary to her now, I think.

Our house feels HUGE. Did it GROW? I can't believe how much space there is here! I'm used to trailer life! Isaac and Noah are playing up in the bonus room, it's strange to have them so far away.

Our cat was a little scared by us at first, and had to sniff us before she'd come out from under the boys' bed. Yes, it's really us, we're here! She's quite content sitting next to me now.

I've been compiling a fun list of songs we listened to on the trip, I'm going to post that later. But for now, I just have to tell you, before we watch anything that's on our DVR, who we think and hope will win American Idol. We've missed it for 1 month...We have to catch up and find out if our favorites are gone!!

Here's who we hope will win:
Karry--David Cook or Carly Smithson
Brenda--Jason Castro or Brooke White

Here's who we think will win:
Karry--David Cook or David Archuleta
Brenda--Jason Castro or David Archuleta

Off to explore this mansion (shouldn't I be paying a ticket price for the entry or something? :), and to get some things done!!
