moving in

We have arrived on campus at DTS! It's really an exciting time for us and we both already feel so at home here. On Saturday, when we moved in, several people stopped in to say hi and introduce themselves. We've already had 2 rounds of yummy cinnamon rolls from neighbors, too! I've gotten to know the family directly across from us and they are wonderful. Their names are Bethany and Tyce and they have two boys, Asher (3 years old) and Cadmon (8 months). We've already popped over on several occasions to hang out and let the kiddos play and last night, we propped our doors open and they came back and forth. It was awesome! Another neighbor just down the hall has a little girl, Avery, only 3 weeks younger than Maggie! How great is that?! We are planning to hang out tomorrow. I'm staring a Bible study with some moms on campus and already feel quite at home. The apartment is roomy with tons of storage and we are well insulated from any excess noise from neighbors--isn't that great?! We are mostly unpacked and just need to hang pictures and put away a few more items. I promise to post pics of our new place once it's done.

In wrapping up this post, I must say a huge thanks to Greg and Patti, Matt and Rachel, and Erin and Christian for their outstanding help in our move this weekend. We had the truck packed in about an hour, enjoyed a lesiurely lunch, then unloaded here on campus in about an hour. Hooray for good friends and hard workers! :)

  6. I'm so glad you were able to move in so easily. It sounds like it's going to be a really great place to live - and look at you already getting to know your neighbors and starting a B-study. Impressive to say the least! So is it apt. style? I'm trying to envision, but of course what I keep seeing in my mind is like what we had at Stanford. Post pics soon!
