I am happy to say that our move went very smoothly, even more so than expected.  We had lots of help from family and friends the week before we left and much to our surprise the packers said we were in the 99th percentile for ‘preparedness’ for the move (if you had seen the house 48 hours before they showed up you would have been nervous).  The flight to Denver was uneventful and the corporate apartment we are staying in (Westminster) is very for the time being.  Lilly had a rough first day and asked to go home several times, but once my parent’s arrived that afternoon things settled down.

My mom and dad were here for a week while we finalized all things ‘house’.  We spent hours driving around different areas and looking at schools and after considering everything from new construction to large suburban houses with walkouts, we ultimately narrowed our search down to a single neighborhood in South Boulder for it’s community feel, access to Bill’s job, Whole Foods (#2 top grossing store in the nation for a good reason), recreation, and excellent schools.

In the meantime we’re keeping Lilly out of preschool until our move is finalized and I am busy showing the girls around and exploring the area.  

We miss our friends and family back home and look forward to visitors soon!
