Goodbye TEXAS, Hello VIRGINIA


 Saying goodbye to good friends like Jenna and Shelby Linford, the Smiths, and the Moores was tough.  Here are a few last hoorahs!



Ryan, Shelby, Jenna, and Izzy tied themselves together and let Ryan lead the way!
 Saying goodbye to 116 degree heat on moving day...not so hard.  Ryan and Graf were out before we left the driveway!!

Ryan did a great job embracing our new home in Virginia...especially this climbing tree!  Unfortunately that love affair ended the day Ryan slipped off a branch and landed flat on her face/belly.  The double bloody nose made it extra memorable!


 First day of school at the bus stop...so many fun kids!

 

Ryan LOVED when Graf came to school and she got to show him around!
She kinda liked Mommy coming too :)
 The other amazing things we have to do here also made the move feel like it was a good one!

Museum of Natural History in Washing DC

See the Empire State Building?
 
Brooklyn Bridge...Ryan walked/ran the whole way!
