Finally Getting All Settled In

Well it's been over a month since we made the big move from Astoria Oregon to Silverdale Washington. And it's still so hard to believe that we no longer live in our beloved Astoria. It's been hard to get used to not having my best friend just down the street, or the daily chats with Billie and Nikki. Having Griff run out the door to go to Peter Pan to catch up with Elliot.... all those little things that made Astoria Home. Running into someone you know every where you go... I miss all those things so very much. The riverwalk, coffee from 3 Cups, Peter Pan Cookies... so very very much.

BUT!! we are slowly finding new things about Silverdale that we enjoy to do. We go to the gym and pool everyday as a family which has been good for us emotionally and physically. Tyler is settling into his new job comfortably, although having him gone for a week, home for a week, has been interesting so far. We are close to a Ross, Costco, and other cute shops. There are concerts in the parks in Poulsbo on Tuesday nights that we pack picnics and go and Toby likes to dance all over the place.

So with all new things, change is difficult. Not really because you have to learn new people, places etc but because you have to leave all the good things behind. But new good things always follow in a new place.

We will just keep putting ourselves out there, learning the new, and growing.
