We Finally Have Internet!!

Yay!  We finally got connected to the world today.  :)  I'm so excited!  Things are going really good here.  We got to pick up my jeep the other day, so I'm super happy about that.  Now I don't have to be stranded at home all day.  Although I have been blessed with some really great girl friends here in cambridge and they usually come over and get me and then we can hang out.  So thats been nice.  But yay for getting my car!!

Tonight I am heading down to the river with some of the girls to watch a punting competition.  I'm kinda excited.  Sam and I have gone down to the river and seen the punting boats that anyone can go one for like $20 (which we haven't done yet, we thought we could do it with the parents when they come) but it'll be fun to see a race.  Other than that, sam has been working some long hours this week so thats hasn't been to fun.  But I can't complain too much because I know the other husbands have been getting home a lot later than sam.  But still, can you blame a wife to want to have her hubby home at night so that they can have dinner together and stuff?

I don't have to much else to update ya all on.  So how about I just post lots of pics.  :)

Oh and notice the nice BRIGHT sunshine yellow walls

Guest Bathroom which I have to use cause its bigger than the master's bath

We are almost all settled in

Sorry that we haven't posted anything in a while. We still don't have any internet at our house. Arg. But it should be up and running hopefully sometime next week. So I'm at a friends house and I thought I'd try and do a quick update on whats been going on.

We moved into our house on the first. And we absolutely love it! We got all off our stuff and nothing was damaged! A few scratches on a couple of things but nothing to bad. Then Sam and I busted butt and had everything unpacked and put into place in just about 2 days. I know...I'm crazy like that. I was just so anxious to get settled again and have a home and stop living out of a suitcase in a hotel. So to sum everything up so far, God has blessed us so much and has allowed things to go incredibly smoothly. The only thing that has been really stressful lately (at least for me) is how long it takes to get cable and internet. It's insane. We lucked out and got our cable set up early this month but then we had to wait 10 days to get a phone line hooked up (I don't know why you have to wait 10 days) and so that just got hooked up yesterday and then we had to call them again to set up our internet and now we get to wait another 15 days to get that. Arg. I don't get it. So with that said, I'm sorry we haven't gotten to call most people yet. We can't set up our vonage until our internet is set up. So I promise that as soon as that happens, we will call everyone. ;)

We are loving living in Cambridge! We've gotten to explore a little bit and it such a neat place. Lots of different restaurants and pubs and of course lots of fun places to shop :) The buildings are so old and beautiful. The architecture is breath-taking. I'm excited to get my jeep though so that I can do some more driving around and exploring since Sam takes the other car to work everyday. So that leaves me car-less. But its hasn't been to bad. I have a good friend that lives basically down the street from us so I've been hanging out with her a lot. Plus things here are so compact and not spread out like in the US, you can pretty much walk wherever you you need to go.

So that's our life update in a nut shell for the last few weeks. We are hoping to have internet by next Thursday so be checking our blog later next week because I'll post lots of pics of our house and stuff.
