Adjustment

Well, I often do posts on the boys but here is a post on mommy. For you close friends this isn't a surprise but I 've had a hard time adjusting after the big move. The kids adjusted wonderfully, Ben is to busy to really think about it much and then there's ME! Raleigh was a great place to live and I happened to have great friends, live in a great neighborhood and it was just an ideal situation that we left which made it twice as hard for me to settle in here. I AM HAPPY TO SAY, summer has done wonders to my mindset and I am finally enjoying Colorado and all it has to offer. With nice weather finally here the neighbors are out and we are forming friendships and getting to do things again like doing dinner with friends, playing cards, hanging out outside until midnight having drinks and enjoying the evening ,heading out to explore the mountains, teaching the boys to fish,hiking, visiting friends in Denver to swim and play and most of all making new memories for our family. I was to focused on what I left and not on what I have right here in front of me to build upon and enjoy!! I am more active then I've been in sometime and the boys are enjoying time exploring the wonderful outdoors we have right outside our door! Most of all we are all enjoying having some time with family which is the biggest plus of all. We are even driving to see my relatives that I havent seen in 4 years over the fourth which I would've never done while in NC so right there I should see a plus!!

I guess we all need sometime to adjust and my time just took a little longer than I thought it would. I am glad I've come around to see all the wonderful opportunities and adventures we have at our finger tips. We are giving our children a gift of family, adventure and and the ability to adjust and accept change! We don't know if well stay here forever but while we are here were are going to enjoy and see all we can and try and appreciate the beauty and opportunities we have for our taking.
