One more time...Chuckee Cheese

Before we moved we had a lot of "We have to do that one more time!" type outings. One of those "one more time" stops was to Chuck E. Cheese's with our dear friends Andy and Abigail. We had gone with them before and had so much fun so we knew we needed to visit CEC one more time with before we moved. As always it did not disappoint and I'm already trying to tempt them into visiting us in CO with the fact that we have a CEC there!

Master of the tickets!

Abigail in deep concentration!

Goodbyes

Well, it's time to play catch up! Our boxes are all unpacked (except for the ones in the basement and garage but that's mostly baby stuff that doesn't need to be unpacked), my dissertation is done and was succesfully defended this past Wednesday (YAY!!!), and we finally feel settled. So, the next several posts will be me playing catch up :-)

Our last few weeks in the Midwest were so much fun. We really tried to make the most of it as we said goodbye to friends and family. One of our goodbyes was to Grace's teachers. Unfortunately, Grace's daycare in WL, Bethel Childcare, is shutting it's doors this month. News of this broke in May and a few weeks before we left Bethel, both of Grace's teachers found new jobs and several of Grace's classmates left for their new schools. Needless to say, it was a heartbreaking few weeks as we had lots of goodbyes. Grace continues to talk about her Bethel friends and teachers. I think it will be nice when she starts at her new school in a month and makes some new friends but we will never forget the special people we met at Bethel and we wish them all the best!
