finally getting settled....

So we are getting all settled into our house (photos will come soon, I promise). We ended up getting a brand new, single family 1 story home! We love it! So far we absolutly love it here! The weather is amazing for it being summer...mostly in the upper 70s, low 80s, and an occasional cooler or warmer day. The area is very nice. We live on base, which is about 13 miles from the town of Minot, which is a small town, but very family friendly. There is a mall, target, walmart, a zoo, and quite a bit more than we though, so its not as bad as everyone made it seem. The base is really nice too. We can walk or bike to most of the stuff to do on base, which is great while the weather is nice. We have quite a few parks very close to our house so I do that with the girls alot of days. Geoff is getting settled into his new job. Right now class is not in session for him, so they have alot of downtime, and he is only working a few hours a day! AWESOME! Class starts in mid August and those last for 6 weeks. He will work pretty normal 8 hour days then. We hope we can start getting visitors here soon :) We miss you all! I will be posting photos soon, and I will try and post a few from the last couple months of all the traveling we have done. It will just take me a while to sort thru the close to 1000 pix we took :)
