Well, yesterday's high was near 80 degrees, so boy were Michael and I happy that someone *else* was moving our stuff. All afternoon we sat outside the new house (or picked dandelions, or chased children -- all outside) and directed the moving traffic. It was beautiful, and the girls enjoyed their first barefoot runs through the grass on the back lawn of the new house. The cherry trees there are beginning to bloom, too...The gardening bug is returning with a vengeance to both Michael and I.
We're still sleeping for a few nights at the old house as the finishing touches get put on the stairs, but we're very close to done. The next few days will be chores, packing the kitchen, and sundry errands so that we're moved in soon. We're looking forward to more spring days like that!
Today, of course, was chilly and rainy again, but since we'd planned inside days, it wasn't a big deal. Hannah and I went to see the ballet this afternoon (Midsummer Night's Dream), and Naomi and Michael had time together. We're hoping for an early bedtime, since yesterday's exertions were somewhat wearing on the whole crew!
