we've arrived

as of 10pm tuesday night, we were officially moved in.  thankfully we had a pretty uneventful drive down and then decided to unpack the truck in the crazy heat that met us here...something like 115 heat index.  yikes.  i have never felt so nasty, but we did it all in ONE night.  lots of boxes around, but they will slowly disappear as we find spots for everything.  i forgot to mention that we picked up my mom on the drive down and she is staying with darci for a week.  she's been such a help, and of like the dutiful daughters darci and i are we are cashing in on bigtime teasing :)  heee heee!   

a bit of a flashback...
i said my good-byes at the kaiserhoff saturday night.  i was actually planning to work, but thankfully the owner's wife told me i couldn't :)  so i went down for a few pictures, jason had a 1919, and i cried a few tears.  jeannie will always be one of my very favorite people.

me and donny, the owner.  he called me 'erin of the emerald isles'.  such a neat man.

ok, so this is from today.  benjamin needed some severe attention, and tickling.

lauren's habits haven't changed...they just transferred from one state to another.  she loves her movies, and of course within reach is peanut, horse blanket, teddy and a few others.
darci trying to tame the wild benja.  no one was too successful.  we found out later why...
a visit to pensacola beach.
me and mom.  lauren wouldn't join us.
my mom, who loves us more than any mom should.

lauren shell-hunting with grandma.
jason and mom.

benjamin had been a handful this afternoon and once we arrived at the beach he didn't want to walk and insisted that it was time to go home.  ahhh haaaa...
