Ugh ~ moving! Wahoo ~ Hawaii!

I have to admit if it wasn't for the fact that we are moving to Hawaii, I doubt that I would ever want to move.  Its just a load of hassle, packing up all your things making sure things don't break, getting enough clothes for everyone and making sure you don't go over weight in your suitcases for the flight, getting rid of all the food you can't ship over and making sure the house is clean and ready for the next people to move in.  Ugh....and to top it off we have to live out of suitcases for nearly 2 months!  But there is no doubt I do not regret this move at all!  Hawaii will be quite the experience I'm sure.

So I thought I would share a few photos of our house and craziness that is happening right now.  If you want to check out what we did for Father's Day just check my other blog www.thethingsidobyelle.blogspot.com

I love my house and my van! ;)







I didn't realise we had so much stuff and this is only the upstairs!!

Poor guys have been working so hard all day in 40 C/104 F weather!
So there you have it!  This is our life right now till we actually get to Hawaii and house hunt. We won't actually have a house till we get there and find one!  So....that will be another adventure.  We arrive in Hawaii on 23 August.  Why isn't it sooner?   Well we will be in San Angelo for a month and then we are travelling to a family reunion, in which we will be taking Noah and Roman to their first trip to Disneyland.  I don't know about them, but I'm pretty excited!! :)  Let the new adventure begin....

That is so exciting!!! Moving does suck though. As much as I liked moving to new places it was really hard to leave good friends :(

Ugh, I hate packing and we have nowhere near as much stuff as that, well done for managing to get it all done, it must have taken forever! I look forward to hearing how everything goes for you once you are settled in Hawaii! xx

Easter Fun

We really loved having a week off for Easter Break!  It was very much needed, for all of us.  I love having Noah at home.  He's such a great help and now that he's older, he's a real good buddy for me.  We have really great, grown up conversations, I love it.  We just really enjoyed family time, seeing old friends and eating lots of chocolate.  Isn't that what school breaks are all for?!  Here are a few photos of our fun. Baptism photos at the Temple One last one.....for now!  She was so excited to do an Easter Egg Hunt! Isn't he handsome!  Bruises and all! :) Beautiful girl! Another handsome big, big boy!

It kind of snowed.....twice

Image
So my lovely little (or not so little) cutie pies were really excited to move here for one main reason...SNOW!  They had never seen or can remember seeing snow.  So after hearing that last years snow fall was a crazy amount and the schools were closed, they were super excited for this winter. (A lot more so than mummy, let me tell you!)  If there is one thing I have learned from moving here, although I do like it here, I DO NOT like cold weather!  I just cannot stay warm....but hey that's another story.  A few weeks back we did indeed get snow. This was the second time this year.  It was a very little but it pleased my children all the same!  They had fun in the snow till their fingers froze.  There was enough snow to make a snowman this time so they were happy. View from our front door Noah trying to make a snow angel.  The snow had unfortunately frozen, because of freezing rain, but it did make a little indent. Noah p...
