The Move

We have been reprimanded on numerous occasions - Not to name names but SB, JM, and QM have been the most persistent with their complaints. To give a brief verbal update on our family in the last month we have traveled home for my mothers 50th birthday, moved from Newberg to Portland, joined the Air Force (Jason), opened a new Chase branch (Holli), continued the pursuit of doctoral training (Jason), and continued to care/carry 1.67 babies (Holli and Jason- a little). Not that these excuses are adequate for empathy from our dear friends!

We have recently relocated to a 1928 home in SE Portland. Our new home has charm and we are walking distance to some of the best restaurants in the nation. It also has ants, opossums/rats, and homeless men that dig through the recycling bin. Our neighbors are nice and we live in a beautiful neighborhood with a great park. Our neighbors love their birds as well (e.g., chickens in yard, parrots on breasts). Oliver and Lincoln love there new huge yard and I have cleared a patch for a summer vegetable garden. We love and miss you all and we all know the typical pattern - I write a post and Holli trumps me with a picture post - you will just have a wait a few days for what you are all hoping for. Just so you know I am as cute as ever!
