adios como life . . . meet me in St Louie

 Women, need women - especially when the women are like the women surrounding me in this photo.
 This is not a large box.
 So many friends. I LOVE these faces!
 Thanks to Erik's band of brothers for all their help. We couldn't have done it without them!!
 Lucille's face? Tate's stomach? Bennett's hand? Darla's shoulder? Great Picture.
Safe arrival, (after having the UHaul guy come and fix our truck before we left. So grateful we didn't have to reload and so grateful we didn't ever break down on the side of the freeway) empty truck.
 St Louis Arch. Gateway to the west - or our new life.
We moved out of COMO Student Cooperative July 3rd. We arrived in St Louis the night of the 4th. Entering the city was incredible because of all the fireworks that were going on all around us. I told the kids it was for them. :) Slept at my cousins house that night and moved our stuff into 833 Lanvale Drive, Webster Groves, MO 63119 - July 5th. Again, I am super grateful for Erik's brothers and all of their help. I love them. We got a little settled for couple days and then climbed back in the car and headed west. That update will come soon. The kids are incredible. They have been brave and such good sports through all the changes.
