One crazy summer!!

We have had one crazy summer. A lot has transpired since I blogged last. At the end of May, we closed on our house in Peoria. Ken lived in the call room for the month of June finishing up his residency, while the girls and I lived with his family in Cincinnati. We enjoyed a quick get-a-way to Amelia Island, FL in the middle of June for a conference. Ken's mom was nice enough to keep the girls while we celebrated our anniversary a month late. We also had Ken's graduation from residency at the beginning of June.

In July, we started off with a trip to Charlotte, NC for our niece's baptism. After spending the Fourth of July weekend with them, we made a road trip down to Myrtle Beach to look at housing. Luckily we were able to find one and had an offer accepted.

Mid-July, Ken, the girls and I took a road trip from Cincinnati to Salt Lake City with two stops. We were able to visit my Aunt Leslie and her family in Kansas City, KS and Ken's brother's family in Denver, CO. We had a great time visiting with everyone. We were able to see all my siblings but my oldest brother, Mike. (We missed you and your family.)

The first week in August, we had the Richards' family reunion. It had been 5 years since the entire family had been together. We were able to get some family photos taken in the backyard. We had such great times.






After a few trials, Ken and I were able to move in last week to our house here in Little River. We are still waiting on his license to practice. Until then, we are enjoying our time at the beach and visiting the aquarium. We have been getting our house in order and getting to know the area. We have met some really nice people and are excited to be starting this new adventure. We welcome any of you who want to to come and visit us.
