Homesick

Well Luke is officially into his third week of academy. It's going as well as you can expect it to besides the nasty shin splints he has. We are both counting down the days til he's done.

The kids are great. The move almost hasn't phased them. I'm still anticipating the moment they both have meltdown and realize this is permanent. I, on the other hand, am still very homesick. I can't wait for my visit home this summer.

On Sunday we attended a church around the corner from us. It reminded me a lot of our church in MI only smaller. We felt very welcome and the people were friendly. Later that afternoon Luke took a nap so I took the kids to the mall. Our mall is outdoors and it was such a beautiful day I thought it would be fun to walk around and window shop.
Yes, those are palm trees :o)

When the weather is warm water the circle above is a giant water fountain and kids (or adults) can run through it.
This is in the center of the mall area right next to the big circle fountain. In the summer they hook up a screen to this stage and play a movie every Friday night.
