There's No Place like Home

So, I have lived here for over a month and I am finally writing a new blog! We are loving our new life in Kansas! Here are a few things I have learned and realized and done:

1) Pumping Gas, Myself. (And dealing with the funny looks when I admit I've never done it before.)

2) There are no woodpeckers outside my apartment. (It is the sound of the gun fire at the range on Ft. Riley Base about 10 miles away...)

3) (This one Lindsey will appriciate) Apparently there are not too many vegatarian's in Kansas, because when you order the Tuscan Steak Salad without the Steak...they repeat it multiple times and chuckle.

4) ING does not exist. Everythin' ends with an "n." Runnin', Fishin', Sleepin', Workin'

5) Thank God for anti-frizz hair serum. My hair would be quite large without it.

6) I can hook my own worm now when fishing!

7) I do not remember the meaning of free time. Work, soccer practice/games/tourneys, wedding planning, marriage prep, back to school functions, FRG meetings...I think we have had 1 free evening in the past month and a half.

8) Oregon storms have nothing on Kansas! The lightening and thunder are incredible and I love it!

9) Oz really does exist! In Wamego, KS. The OZ museum and Winery. Love wine from OZ!

10) I am so thankful for my beautiful daughter and my amazing fiance.
