We had a great time with the kids and had so much fun watching them open their presents. Blake did really well opening his first present ever and of course, loved playing with the paper and the boxes:-) Later that afternoon wound up being a little rough because Blake got a fever and had it for 4 days so he was quite the crank. Alexa had a blast and was super excited because "Santa" brought her makeup that she had been asking for for months. She is still telling people that Santa brought her makeup for Christmas. <br /><br />A few days after Christmas Nic's family came in a spent a week with us and it was so much fun to have them here. We really miss being near family and we are realizing just how important family is!<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852301752999378" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mzPxb4DQ6So/Ty9CcALVHdI/AAAAAAAAA78/U0gcBOodDaY/s320/photo10.JPG" /><em>Blake enjoying his cookie at our Christmas lunch...it was the only thing that would keep him happy because he was so fussy from his fever</em>.</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rmy7QV2o4O0/Ty9Cb7QGdcI/AAAAAAAAA7w/SEGwKB_gotU/s1600/photo9.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852300430833090" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rmy7QV2o4O0/Ty9Cb7QGdcI/AAAAAAAAA7w/SEGwKB_gotU/s320/photo9.JPG" /></a> <em>Blake was really getting in to tearing the paper off of his presents.<br /><br /></em><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gmnxr1jxm5E/Ty9CbhtAIeI/AAAAAAAAA7k/gaYIDJxY0yI/s1600/photo8.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 170px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852293572731362" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gmnxr1jxm5E/Ty9CbhtAIeI/AAAAAAAAA7k/gaYIDJxY0yI/s320/photo8.JPG" /></a><em> Alexa showing Daddy her Tinker Bell from Grammy.<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mBCWtPLO6OM/Ty9CbSNydLI/AAAAAAAAA7Y/kqhdqyRW79Y/s1600/photo7.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852289415279794" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mBCWtPLO6OM/Ty9CbSNydLI/AAAAAAAAA7Y/kqhdqyRW79Y/s320/photo7.JPG" /></a><em> Opening Tinker Bell.<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7VnUHsvX1FI/Ty9CbXJcjsI/AAAAAAAAA7M/sWNe9Z_ImK8/s1600/photo6.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852290739244738" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7VnUHsvX1FI/Ty9CbXJcjsI/AAAAAAAAA7M/sWNe9Z_ImK8/s320/photo6.JPG" /></a> <em>Her makeup from Santa...the highlight of her Christmas!</em><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-24d6l7Z0gpo/Ty9COhCuAPI/AAAAAAAAA68/MDFGjlHqet0/s1600/photo5.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852070057083122" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-24d6l7Z0gpo/Ty9COhCuAPI/AAAAAAAAA68/MDFGjlHqet0/s320/photo5.JPG" /></a><em> Blake's train from Grammy.</em><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9hDFfl-bDqA/Ty9CN8sI6zI/AAAAAAAAA60/Ea9rJfU67kw/s1600/photo4.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852060298701618" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9hDFfl-bDqA/Ty9CN8sI6zI/AAAAAAAAA60/Ea9rJfU67kw/s320/photo4.JPG" /></a><em>Putting out cookies for Santa...Blake thought they were for him:-)<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KMrz_pis4DU/Ty9CNzVUKsI/AAAAAAAAA6g/p7zBsYN3K7Q/s1600/photo3.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852057787050690" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KMrz_pis4DU/Ty9CNzVUKsI/AAAAAAAAA6g/p7zBsYN3K7Q/s320/photo3.JPG" /></a><em>Just a cute picture of my sweetie:-)<br /><br /></em><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n9xxhyB7Qa4/Ty9CNwzPb6I/AAAAAAAAA6Y/LttXLAukGog/s1600/photo2.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852057107263394" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n9xxhyB7Qa4/Ty9CNwzPb6I/AAAAAAAAA6Y/LttXLAukGog/s320/photo2.JPG" /></a><em>Blake messing with my ornaments.<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fak9RH9AoBQ/Ty9CNh5npZI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/8u8m9CIJIfQ/s1600/photo.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5705852053107484050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-fak9RH9AoBQ/Ty9CNh5npZI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/8u8m9CIJIfQ/s320/photo.JPG" /></a><em>With Santa...Blake wasn't too sure about him!

We made the best discovery...well, one of the girls from MOPS told me about it but yesterday we decided to check it out. One of the large churches around here has a huge play area that is open to the public. It is so nice...honestly, the nicest indoor play place I have been to. It as a huge 2-story play structure that is great for older kids and they also have a nice play area for the younger ones that is walled off to keep them from getting plowed by the bigger kids. There are tables so you can bring your own lunch to eat. And the best part about it...it's FREE! I was really not expecting it to be as nice as it was because it was free but it was great. Both kids loved it. The only damper to the day was I had packed a lunch for all of us and Alexa was so excited about it, but I forgot it on the counter top! She kept asking for our lunch while we were there and saying she was hungry so we didn't stay as long as I would have liked, but we met <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Nic</span> for lunch so that was fun. We will definitely have to got back next week when <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Nic</span> is off of work.<br /><br />Then, when we came outside the sun was shining so bright and it turned out to be a really warm day. So, after naps we walked to the playground in our neighborhood and then had a picnic outside (the lunch that I had packed and forgot earlier).

We have had some fairly cold days but for the most part it's been very sunny and warmer. It's odd to be outside in a long-sleeved t-shirt with my windows rolled down some days. Then other days, I'm freezing and feel like I'm back in Ohio. I'm definitely enjoying the sunshine though, even if it's chilly. We've had a lot of fun driving around and looking at all the lights and touring they "Christmassy" things to do around here.<br /><br />We also had a lot of fun taking the kids to see Santa. It was particularly fun this year because it is Blake's first Christmas and because Alexa really "gets it" this year. Of course, everything she sees a toy or candy she says "I want this for Christmas Mommy" but she has been very consistent on the one thing she asks for over and over. She says "I want my 'owm' makeup for Christmas" (that is how she pronounces "own"). It was funny though because when she saw Santa she said "I'm having my own makeup for Christmas" instead of asking him...I guess she's pretty confident! Every time we drive to look at Christmas lights Alexa yells "Christmas Lights" at every house. She asks me almost every day if Santa is coming yet.<br /><br />The other day Alexa found my hiding spot for the presents and came running out with her Tinker Bell toothpaste and some candy I got for Nic for Christmas. She was so excited that she found something and she has asked for her Tinker Bell toothpaste every day since then. I didn't really know how to explain why it was in the closet.<br /><br />My little Blake seems to be growing up so fast! I can't believe he's almost one! He has four teeth now which are so cute! Especially since there is a big gap in between the top two and he just grins so cute with them:-) He is getting around really good walking with his walk toy but no steps on his own yet. He will stand on his own for a long time and I ask him to walk to me and he just slowly sits down and then crawls over. Right now we are working on getting rid of the bottle and exclusively using a sippy cup. It's been quite the challenge and very frustrating since he drinks water out of it great but he knows his milk is supposed to be in his bottle so he throws it down. He is finally drinking his milk out of it for the first morning cup but won't touch it the rest of the day. I keep reminding myself I went through the same thing with Alexa but it seems like he's a bit more stubborn than she was...I wonder where he gets that from? :-)<br /><br />Here are a few random pictures from December. I have many more to post but I have to get them organized first. I at least finally got Blake's birth photobook done (now that he is going to be one in 2 weeks!) and Alexa's 2 year book...can you tell I'm a little behind?<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3H0uI1ckSBA/TvJUP18Ev_I/AAAAAAAAA4s/wXwWqgXxOWU/s1600/wisemen.JPG"><br /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3H0uI1ckSBA/TvJUP18Ev_I/AAAAAAAAA4s/wXwWqgXxOWU/s1600/wisemen.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3H0uI1ckSBA/TvJUP18Ev_I/AAAAAAAAA4s/wXwWqgXxOWU/s320/wisemen.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688701910476177394" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">(On the hayride for the "Live Nativity")</span><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h7yMngWoSAw/TvJUPnHmb3I/AAAAAAAAA4c/Zw9XkQ096NQ/s1600/petting%2Bcamel.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h7yMngWoSAw/TvJUPnHmb3I/AAAAAAAAA4c/Zw9XkQ096NQ/s320/petting%2Bcamel.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5688701906497990514" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">(Petting the baby Camel.

Things got to crazy with closing on the house and getting settled in to post again so I'm going to try to catch up. Following is what little bit was saved from the original post so I will leave it:<br /><br /><br /><div align="center">After a very long trip of a week and a half, we are finally here! We really enjoyed driving in and seeing the different countryside. Everything was really pretty driving in with rolling ranches and lots of cattle...we even had a moment of panic when there were 3 huge cows grazing on the side of the interstate! Fortunately, they are not fast like deer. We even saw a gorgeouse ranch that had the white horse fence and lots of horses...it reminded us of Kentucky so we thought we might not get so homesick. It got dark about an hour or so before we arrived so our sightseeing was over.<br /><br /></div><br /><div align="center"><br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 184px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177635919141922" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1l8w4ehYZaM/ToXilOEFHCI/AAAAAAAAA0I/mSpCArykHpY/s320/Landscape.jpg" /> <em>(Some scenery driving in)<br /></em><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HVsKKIZ5wxY/ToXikQK-RXI/AAAAAAAAAz4/3dO1ttLPfPo/s1600/flags.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 207px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177619305055602" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-HVsKKIZ5wxY/ToXikQK-RXI/AAAAAAAAAz4/3dO1ttLPfPo/s320/flags.jpg" /></a><br /><em>(All the flags Texas has flown under)<br /></em><br /><br /><div><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mo_6aOqOXmQ/ToXiKAmwtGI/AAAAAAAAAzo/jQAnXiBOK_U/s1600/bike%2Bpath.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 219px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177168450040930" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mo_6aOqOXmQ/ToXiKAmwtGI/AAAAAAAAAzo/jQAnXiBOK_U/s320/bike%2Bpath.jpg" /></a><em> (The bike path driving into our neighborhood)<br /><br /></em><br /><div><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-g2iz4FiBqg8/ToXiJ0TLQNI/AAAAAAAAAzY/92FjALQEU4k/s1600/view%2Bof%2Brd.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177165146669266" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-g2iz4FiBqg8/ToXiJ0TLQNI/AAAAAAAAAzY/92FjALQEU4k/s320/view%2Bof%2Brd.jpg" /></a><em> (A view of our street from our driveway)<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3xRZ6YeIEy0/ToXiJtNIniI/AAAAAAAAAzQ/uWcuFkPHztQ/s1600/tree.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 227px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177163242282530" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-3xRZ6YeIEy0/ToXiJtNIniI/AAAAAAAAAzQ/uWcuFkPHztQ/s320/tree.jpg" /></a> <em>(Our front yard...figured I better get a picture of the flowers before I kill them all:-)</em><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--E8nVy5ka4s/ToXiJZkBOJI/AAAAAAAAAzI/XPUbNUXFP0U/s1600/Landscape.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 184px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658177157969557650" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--E8nVy5ka4s/ToXiJZkBOJI/AAAAAAAAAzI/XPUbNUXFP0U/s320/Landscape.jpg" /></a><em> (More scenery of the drive in)<br /><br /></em><br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-A4PpNnrrW4U/ToXhsL9OzgI/AAAAAAAAAzA/PiefhQpaBWo/s1600/flower%2Bmound%2Brd.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 208px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658176656101002754" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-A4PpNnrrW4U/ToXhsL9OzgI/AAAAAAAAAzA/PiefhQpaBWo/s320/flower%2Bmound%2Brd.jpg" /></a> <em>(Driving up to our subdivision)<br /></em><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SZyGfW1oDCE/ToXhrz_KA_I/AAAAAAAAAy4/mIE_Q9OttrQ/s1600/entrance.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 271px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658176649666626546" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SZyGfW1oDCE/ToXhrz_KA_I/AAAAAAAAAy4/mIE_Q9OttrQ/s320/entrance.jpg" /></a><em> (Our subdivision)<br /><br /></em><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bwJbS4cO0Xk/ToXhrjR7M3I/AAAAAAAAAyw/ZQtrf1l8uXM/s1600/clubhouse.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658176645181944690" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bwJbS4cO0Xk/ToXhrjR7M3I/AAAAAAAAAyw/ZQtrf1l8uXM/s320/clubhouse.jpg" /></a> <em>(The community center in our subdivision)<br /><br /></em><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zO9s2eUWO1Q/ToXhrbp5cfI/AAAAAAAAAyo/WXiQUZhIifw/s1600/bike%2Bpath.jpg"></a><br />And of course, I had to check out the mall while we were waiting to close.

We decided to leave later so most of the trip would be the kids bedtime. I was really afraid it would backfire on us and they would just be really cranky, but much to my shock...they actually slept about 5 hours! We didn't get in until after midnight and man, was I dreading unloading the car again. </div><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><div align="center">The next morning, Alexa woke up and was so excited to see the kids. She had so much fun with them all weekend. She saw Ryan's picture at <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Nic's</span> parents and said "he's my best friend!" She is so funny because she isn't yet into all the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">girly</span> stuff and would rather play with him because he is 8 and carries her all around the house and makes a big deal over her. She went to school with Lanette to pick him up and he was introducing her to all his friends. She had a great time playing dress up and play-<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">doh</span> with Emma. Emma was crazy about Blake and was a great helper with feeding him and changing his diapers. <br /></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 318px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657494044900899650" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v9W2loYT6WA/ToN02_E0u0I/AAAAAAAAAxw/elB_bbxxDks/s320/alexa%2Band%2Bemma.jpg" /> <br /><p align="center"><em>(Alexa and Emma playing so sweetly together)<br /></em><br /></p><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657493939359660578" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ieLaq4e2r9s/ToN0w151OiI/AAAAAAAAAxo/YJ8p-skfAm4/s320/blake%2Band%2Bemma.jpg" /><em>(Emma entertaining Blake for me)<br /><br /></em><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 318px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657493927051455282" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-jloGcmIarWw/ToN0wIDU6zI/AAAAAAAAAxg/cAMyb8Rnoh0/s320/blake%2Band%2Bmarley.jpg" /><em>(I've never seen Blake laugh so much as did with the dog.

Unfortunately, we have 5 nights in a hotel before we can move into our house but at least we can explore our new city. After a fun time at Emma's birthday party we headed out of town...</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>...Texas, Here We Come!!!</div></div></div></div></div><br /></div></div>The Rogers Family (Nic, Leanne, Alexa and Blake)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01222402343640081173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636989184131719533.post-74720990938348450942011-09-28T14:37:00.008-04:002011-09-28T15:21:32.105-04:00Leg 2 to Texas...OwensboroThe drive to Owensboro was a little stressful since both kids decided to be a little fussy. After 3 hours we made it and were very glad to spend some time with Nic's parents. Blake had a wonderful time crawling all over MawMaw and Daddy Bob's house exploring and Alexa had so much fun in MawMaw's garden picking all the baby watermelon that weren't ready yet...sorry Mawmaw.<br /><br />Nic and I were even able to go on a date night...we had forgotten what that was:-) We spent a lot of it at the cell phone store since I had lost my phone. I thought for sure it was at my parents house until I finally found it in the bottom of my suitcase after 2 days. Poor Blake probably had to listen to it ringing 100 times since the suitcase was in his room. I was actually disappointed to find it since I am trying to talk Nic into getting me an Android:-) Nic and I also went to dinner where we ran into some of his friends and had a great time talking with them.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 270px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657483643738006850" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xG6u7wnIgLM/ToNrZjuWJUI/AAAAAAAAAwY/qzmpVyZLk9I/s320/IMG_1205.JPG" /> <em>(I think somebody wanted to escape)</em></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 210px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657483191891384946" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dNwZuMOoe8A/ToNq_Qdt2nI/AAAAAAAAAwQ/pSuzxohbc58/s320/IMG_1202.JPG" /> <em>(Blake had a wrestling match with the bear...he resorted to biting his ear)</em></p><br /><br /><p align="center"><em></em></p><br /><br /><div align="left"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rKKhpQ8an0s/ToNq_Kpy8eI/AAAAAAAAAwI/mHD8k7OUh6E/s1600/blake%2Bw%2Bbear.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 310px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5657483190331437538" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rKKhpQ8an0s/ToNq_Kpy8eI/AAAAAAAAAwI/mHD8k7OUh6E/s320/blake%2Bw%2Bbear.jpg" /></a><br /><em>(Blake loved this bear...it was wearing on of Nic's outfits from when he was a baby)<br /><br /></em><br /><br />After a great visit with Nic's parents, it was time to say goodbye.

I think it would have been much worse but I don't know if it has fully set in yet that we are moving and will be so far away. It felt like we were just there for a visit and then going home to OH. It also helped that my mom and dad are planning to come to Dallas for Thanksgiving. It's in writing here Mom so now you can't change your mind:-)<br /><br />After 4 nights we loaded the van back up (I felt like we were moving again with all our junk we had to load back up) and started out on the 2<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">nd</span> leg on our journey to Dallas.<br /><br /><br />On to <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Owensboro</span>... </p>The Rogers Family (Nic, Leanne, Alexa and Blake)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01222402343640081173noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636989184131719533.post-87039223987703056572011-09-26T15:04:00.008-04:002011-09-26T16:11:58.232-04:00Officially Homeless...Goodbye Columbus:-(<div align="left">It was a sad goodbye to Columbus and friends. It was really nice to have a girls night the day before closed on our house. I got to go to Cheesecake Factory with my good friends Shannon, Alicia and <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Bethel</span>. It was such a great time but it was sad knowing it was the last time I was going to get to go out with them.</div><br /><br /><div align="left"></div><br /><br /><div align="left">We closed on our home Thursday AM while the movers were at our house loading the truck and packing the last minute things. We were so excited to finally be closed after our last sale fell through the day before closing! <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Yay</span>, we are <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">officially</span> out! While the movers worked I was able to meet one my friends at the mall to meet her new daughter Ana that they just got from China. It was a little bittersweet because we really enjoyed getting to meet Ana and play with her and her big sister Audrey but it sad knowing it was the last time we would see them. After we said goodbye it was back to the house to help the movers finish things up.</div><br /><br /><div align="center"></div><br /><br /><div align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 301px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656746952583007458" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Md3jbHgOQCs/ToDNYfT7zOI/AAAAAAAAAto/7_j6M4zCC7o/s320/Alexa%2Bwith%2BAandA.jpg" /></div><br /><br /><div align="center"><em>(Audrey, Alexa & Ana)</em></div><br /><br /><p align="left">When I got back to the house I was busy helping the movers finish things up and cleaning things for the new owners. When the movers left my friend Shannon and her girls came over to tell us goodbye. When I had to say goodbye to her I had my first tears because it was so sad to say goodbye to my college friend that I was so fortunate to get to spend the last 3 years with in Ohio. Hopefully we can live near them again and Alexa and Blake can grow up with their buddies.</p><br /><br /><p align="center"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656747107444280994" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cqE_ax70kcU/ToDNhgNvTqI/AAAAAAAAAuI/f1bBych6jrE/s320/shannon%2Bwith%2Bbabies.jpg" /></p><br /><br /><p align="center"><em>(Shannon with Blake and her baby Juliette...Blake looks so huge next to her!)</em></p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 202px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656746945568776418" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ePHK3qyBY8w/ToDNYFLnIOI/AAAAAAAAAtg/AXuqnUdFpVE/s320/alexa%2Band%2Bava.jpg" /><br /><br /><p align="center"><em>(Alexa and Ava saying goodbye)</em></p><br /><br /><p>Then it was time to say goodbye to the house. It was kind of sad to see it all empty. Alexa kept saying, "those guys are taking my stuff!" and I had to keep explaining they were taking it to our new house. The funniest was when she wanted a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">Popsicle</span> and I told her I didn't have any scissors because they were packed and she said, "we have scissors, they're right here" and opened the drawer and said "hey, somebody took my scissors...put them back!" She managed to make friends with the movers though and kept saying "those guys are my friends" and taking them bottles of water.</p><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656747909720937410" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qLIiIBnEO98/ToDOQM7Zk8I/AAAAAAAAAuQ/S45ba8ajbtY/s320/living%2Broom.jpg" /><br /><br /><p align="center"><em>(Our empty living room)<br /></p></em><br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656746961085325346" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nGgLOskpfL8/ToDNY-_C4CI/AAAAAAAAAt4/S5z2hEem91A/s320/kitchen.jpg" /><br /><br /><p align="center"><br /><em>(I'm over living with boxes everywhere.

The movers come in 2 days to load our truck and then we close on our house on Thursday. I can't believe it is almost here. I am a little excited and a little sad. I am really sad to leave our friends here in Columbus and to be so far away from our families. And I'm nervous about how hot it is going to be but I can't lie, I am NOT going to miss the horrible winters here:-)</div><br /><br /><div>I'm not sure Alexa really gets it yet. She goes around wearing <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Nic's</span> cowboy hat singing a song he taught her about Texas but I don't think she understands we won't be coming back to this house. We sold our kitchen table and she came downstairs and asked where her table and chairs were and I told her we sold it for the move and she said, "put it back!" I don't think she really likes change much. Blake is just having a ball crawling all over the place getting into the boxes that aren't sealed yet! Since we won't see everyone as much now, I'm really going to try to update more on our new lives in Texas. </div><br /><br /><div>Despite all the reserves I am feeling, I am excited for the adventure of starting in a new place. It seems like a great place to live from the limited time I have spent there while looking for a house. We did find a house and will be closing on it two weeks after we leave here so I guess we will be drifters for a couple of weeks. We are looking forward to spending some time in KY with our family and friends before we make the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">looong</span> drive to our new home.</div></div></div>The Rogers Family (Nic, Leanne, Alexa and Blake)http://www.blogger.com/profile/01222402343640081173noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636989184131719533.post-5119612718483023262011-09-09T14:27:00.005-04:002011-09-09T14:53:13.628-04:00Some Family Pics<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S3yBZWskNW8/TmpfyzHjBJI/AAAAAAAAAsg/iT2rYARnpQ8/s1600/067logo.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;
