We have made it...


um... home I suppose. It wouldn't be polite to call it my worse nightmare. The 3 people we have met (we are told there are 60 in the village now) are amazing! There is NO, I repeat NOOO, Native store as we were told (we ship most of our food but were counting on that store for emergencies and cravings)... we live in a trailer (yes that kind of trailer)... bears come into the village... the mosquitos are as big as birds and fly in swarms (I've lost an ounce of blood to them in the past hour LOL!)... and our plane wasn't able to hold all our things so we have no bedding or juice... I am craving juice. I don't mean to complain. I just wanted to be 'real'. Seriously, we are excited to be here... I just may cry myself to sleep tonight before I get over this and suck it up. In Macy's words, "I'm strong and I'm tough and I WON'T give up!"

Let us suck it up, find the good in all this, and unpack a bit and I will get on the details from our crazy long trip from old home to new home.

AH hahaha! We are in the school checking things out and using the internet... Arwen was not happy... Joe used the smart board to play Yo Gabba Gabba! So cute. The girls are dancing around and Arwen is trying to color the screen with her tiny hands. It's like our own personal movie theater. I could get used to that.
