We are finally feeling settled in. All boxes are unpacked, well - most boxes! Our garage is half full with boxes and furniture. We are only unpacking the necessities and it really is amazing what we already own, but can live without. Our only duplicate purchase was a bathroom trash can and the only thing that I packed and cannot find are the bags for our laundry cart. Which isn't a big deal unless you are Mr. Latu. We are in the process of buying a house and I am trying to contain my excitement since so much can change during this process. If all goes as planned we will be moving in on the 5th of October. Hopefully, more to follow on that subject.
We attended our address appropriate ward/church this last Sunday. As we were crossing the parking lot a woman getting out of her car yells across the parking lot, "y'all visiting us today or moved into the ward?" Such a warm Texas welcome!! We really like the ward. A nice mix of young, old and in between. There are even a handful of Tongan families. Verlyn said they took the time in Highpriest group for everyone to introduce themselves. The ward even has a "LaRee" only her name has a little "r." They are starting a "mommy group" get together on Friday mornings, so I am looking forward to that. I have enjoyed spending my days with LaRee. We are bonding more now. She is starting to pretend which seems crazy to me. When she is fake falling she will say really fast, "oh no, oh no, oh noooo!" We try to go in the pool as much as possible. Love it!!

So glad you're setting in well! La Ree is looks so cute chilling out in that box. How exciting about the house too! We really miss seeing you guys, but I'm so happy that things are going so well for you in Texas!
I can't wait to see pictures of the house. Send some or a link or something.
There must be something about you because when I'm in Texas, nobody chases me across a parking lot or chats me up in the bathroom. You must have that Texas appeal already. :-)
Miss you tons. Glad you are getting more time with LaRee..... that's what this is all about, right?
Love to all.
Congrats on the house...that will be so exciting and how fun that you get to be home with LaRee...we still need to chat...maybe we should still meet in Vegas sometime eh??
I have just unpacked the last box from your move two years ago, and now I am trying to go through the boxes of stuff I decided to keep, but store in the basement to see if any of it is acutually necessary to keep, my suspicion: no. I mean, I don't even know what it is.
Ooh, buying a house. I felt like that was a bigger commitment than getting married. Don't tell my husband, though.
This one made my cry. I'm sooo glad you are liking it and the people and your able to stay home with LaRee. Can't wait to see your house and come visit as soon and I possibly can. Love and miss you like crazy. Give that little one a huge hug from her auntie that she doesn't know.
Hey Meliss! I am SO excited that you guys are buying a house! That is AWESOME! I spent the day with Becky today and she told me a little about your road trip and the house....I'm really glad that this has been a good move for you! I'm sure it will continue to get better and better once you get settled! Hooray for the Latus...... :-)
EXCELLENT! Send me an address of a link or something so i can start stalking you. I am glad to hear you are doing well. I need new phone numbers for you. I keep fearing you are roaming on your cell phone and dont want a 20 phone call. I have got into the swing of things now and got back to school over. We need to set a seme permanent play date. What is Siones schedule like?
