Happy Birthday Jared!

Jared's birthday was yesterday and you can guess how he celebrated..... book shopping in Chicago! He went to 2 or 3 bookstores down town while I played with the kids.


 Yummy Triple Chocolate Cheesecake!

Today we had our first family adventure to the city. Adeline was a little bit of a mess on the train, but we had fun once we arrived at Miillennium Park. The kids played, we walked around, and ate lunch at the cafe.














Run away baby!


Outdoor theater, beautiful!






Brown Family

A big THANK YOU to Jared's parents and brother who helped us move. We had fun spending time together and celebrating Cindy's birthday :)


 


Our New Place

Here are some pictures of our new "BIG house," as Calvin calls  it. It is about 200 square feet bigger, which is wonderful!! We are excited to host and fellowship in our new place.
Our big back yard.

Living room

I love the built in bookshelves and nook for our coats. 
Spacious kitchen & dining room. 





Jared's study is amazing! He fit 11 big booksshelves and a small one. 

He made a little nook by placing two bookshelves back to back. 



Our room is smaller, but just right for my "office" things. 

The kids room has plenty of space to play!

We Made It!

Good bye North Richland Hills! We had so many big moments in that house... brought both kids home from the hospital/birthing center, kids learned to walk there, Jared and I both graduated with our Master's degree, and so many more!



Thanks to our family and church friends everything barely fit in our 22 foot truck.


Hello Oklahoma

The kids were great in the car! Adeline had her moments, but over all it was good. It was about 10 hours each day (Saturday & Sunday).

Hellow Missouri

We stopped in Springfield Missouri to sleep and swim!

St. Louis... I think.


Here is our adorable house :)  It is only a block from the train station and Wheaton College.  Cal's school is about a half a mile walk. I'll post pictures of the inside when we are completely out of boxes.  We are so excited about this adventure and can't wait to see what God has in store for us!
