We have the internet people!!!!!


The pool

The living room

The alleyway on moving day

The entryway

The front of the villa


the star trek who's outside your gate speakerphone

This is for Bob
We have the internet people, and boy did i miss it!! we didn't have any for a while, then i had it on my phone. There's nothing as pathetic as a mom, jonesing for the internet, huddling by a window with an iphone.
But, it's all good now :) We are slowly, slowly settling in. We went this weekend and got a vanity for me for our room. It sounds fancy, but really it's a necessity. Our villa has no outlets in the bathroom, most don't. So the only one in our room is behind our bed, so i have an 80 ft cord stretched across midget's room to dry my hair in front of her mirror. Well, apparently it drove hubby crazy, so he suggested a vanity. God love him for it. It's nice to have a place to sit and get dressed.
We also got our very own, just for us car. A jeep cherokee sport, more commonly known in the us as a jeep libery. It's 4 wheel drive, so we can go over curbs, as is needed sometimes, really, it is :) it's got a sunroof, and leather and is so fun to drive!
Midget joined her new ballet class last week, and this week is signed up for mad science. We had that back home, and she loved it. So as we speak, she is cleaning coins with coke and salt in a beaker. To each their own:) Monkey is writing stories at school, and he is so good at it. His english teacher, this adorable, spunky girl is encouraging him to enter it into a contest, and to write for the paper. I suggested it too, but it might seem cooler from her...
A few more families are coming out this next month, and i can't wait! It's going to be so nice to have some more people. Especially kids for the kids to play with. So that is all that is going on here. Halloween is coming up, we are debating on a little party. I'm going to find some costumes this week, and bug hubby. We'll see, maybe we will wait and do it next month, and call it halloween.
