Our New Home

Things are very busy at the Davies house. We are making great progress with packing and relocating. Brian and I, however, are both exhausted. I don't think we have ever been more emotionally or physically fatigued, but the end is in sight. Our friends the Starks have been such a help with Kate, and I can actually say I feel like we will have everything ready for our move next Wednesday. On a fun note, Brian and I have gotten well under way in purchasing our first home. We are so excited about the beautiful colonial that's a mile north of church, 4 blocks from the grade school, 6 blocks from the actual Grays Lake, 8 blocks from the high school, a mile west of the cute downtown, and a half mile to the Metra stop. To say that it was a good time to buy your first home is an understatement. We got a great deal, and really feel blessed to be able to be in the middle of everything. Our move-in date will be in Mid-November, so until then we will be living with my parents. It is very wonderful of them to accommodate us, and after living away for years we are looking forward to the time together. By the way our adorable Kate turned 20 months today, but with the craziness here the documentation of her every move will have to take a back seat, at least for a little while.

Just think-in less than a week you will be in Grayslake and the move will be behind you-YEAH! And the next chapter of your exciting lives will have begun. We are eager to come to see you after you are settled in your beautiful new home! Love, Gammie and Pop Pop

Hope you've got a special room for me! I like pink, so Kate can decorate it for me!

How sad are we! You've been gone less than two days and the whole family is sitting in front of the computer watching Kate videos. The Ferrettis contemplated naming the new pig "Brian" but settled on "Fred", that would have been hilarious though. Hope the drive went well. We miss you already. Gotta go the firewood guy is here, THAT'S ALOT OF WOOD. (I changed the delivery to today). Thanks again for the wood, we will sit around the fire and toast to you soon. All our Love- The Starks
P.S. Troy wants you to come back and help him stack the wood, he said he'd be out there till Sunday:)
