Settling In

Life is beginning to settle down a bit. Nanny has gone to Texas, David has started to school, Mike has begun orientation on his new base, and Em has started her new job. Now the nuggets wait for their shipment to arrive so they can move into their house. Then comes the fun as we ship the animals from Texas! "I sure hope it's cool enough for me to come to Alaska in a couple of weeks. I don't get very good sleep here. Graham hogs all the covers!"
Happy Birthday, Mike! Hope the year is full of fun and adventure.
Hooray! Full-fledged Alaska residents now.
One can only imagine what these two are planning!
David's new school: Kasuun Elementary
David standing in front of the temporary lodging facility with the mountains in the background. When the sun sets the mountains look like they are made of pink granite.
Who can believe that David is a 5th grader! First day of school at Kasuun Elementary. The secretary warned us that they have moose activity on the playground. The kids have to be warned to not approach a moose. We definitely aren't in Arkansas anymore.

Great pictures, Em! I am so glad to have the Momma Moose Nugget back home, but for her I wish Alaska wasn't so far away. I can truly empathize. Long weekend trips will be sorely missed.

Girl-Girl actually peeked her head out from the curtain this morning. She looked longingly a while and darted back to her sanctuary. Poor kitty!! Vader has decided he will sleep downstairs... I got tired of rousting him out of his late-night hiding places and let him have his way... He is now lounging in the pink velvet chair. Oh well...

More pictures and more about David's school classes, etc.

Love you,
