hickety cricket

so what is life like for me now that i'm living in the sunflower state? well, my first week was pretty uneventful:

monday - memorial day was great because it meant nathan would be home for even one more day
tuesday - unpacking, started teaching the non-A.D.D. black lab how to "play dead"
this is him during one of his resting moments:

wednesday - unpacking; this is the day i found a tick on my head after running around outside with the dogs; this is also the day a black, furry spider crawled out of a curtain as i vacuumed; this is ALSO the day a spider was crawling on my leg as i walked inside from petting the cats; continued the "play dead" teaching process
thursday - the BIL drove around the area with me so that i could figure my way around the wichita, towanda, andover, etc. area; continued the "play dead" teaching process
friday - spent time checking emails, etc.; read; was on the inet for a few hours in the evening; hubby came home!

on sunday afternoon nathan went fishing while i spent some time finishing up a book. he then picked me up and wen went on a gator ride. the gator is this 4-wheel drive, 2 passenger lil vehicle that they use here to go from one place to the next. we drove into an 'wooded' area, picked berries and ate them! we also chased a turkey, but he was one turn ahead of us even on the gator.

that evening nathan's older brother and his wife came over with their 5 month-old baby boy. he's one of the most adorable little babies ever.

i've never known so much peace and relaxation. i'm taking it all in and enjoying every moment of it.

pictures coming soon!
