We made it!!

We made it to Seattle. Woodinville to be exact. What a crazy last week we had. I'm glad it's over and now I get to continue the crazy here this week. A different kind of crazy.

2 years ago when we moved to Idaho as we were heading into Boise we got pulled over. Dave was speeding a little bit. But because we were just moving to the area, the cop let us off with a warning and told us where the speed limit changed.

The night we left our house for the last time, we got pulled over. Apparently the trailer light wasn't working while we drove but the blinker and brake light worked. Well they couldn't find a plate on the trailer so they pulled us over. We had a plate for it. It was on the moving truck. I had pulled it out and put it on the counter but the movers got it first and so it was somewhere in a box in the middle. Well that cop also let us off but said good luck not getting pulled over your whole way there.

Guess what? I found the registration with the plate info in my important papers and we never got pulled over again. I guess that was Idaho's way of welcoming us and saying goodbye.

We are here. All the kids started school today. Yay! I went to get them registered and Jacob was short a shot. One they don't require in Idaho, but do here, so happy to say we already have a doctor. That was quick.

I really don't like traffic and there is lots of traffic. We did venture out Sunday to get some food because the movers didn't finish until after 2 so we missed church. We drove into Bellevue and had some Cheesecake Factory. Noah thought it was the fanciest meal he had ever had. He ate it all and had a hot fudge sundae for dessert.

I am happy to announce that I love my woodinville bubble. What's that? I have the kids school, doctor, grocery store, bank, gas station and of all things Costco, within 5 miles of my house. Heaven!!! I'm a person who like things easy and simple. I am not a fan of traffic. I'll venture out farther later, but for now....I'm good.

Oh and Dave loves his job. His commute is a bit longer than his 1 mile drive in Idaho but he gets his calls done in the car and we get to relax when he gets home.
