Life in New Orleans




Hello,
We have been very busy working. Nate takes care of the outside work and I take care of most of the office work. We work all day and Nate fishes at night. We have gone to Gulf Port MS a couple of times to the beach on the Gulf of Mexico. We have seen a lot of different fish. One of the exciting ones was a dead jellyfish. We have had quite the experience with fire ants. I think I am allergic to them. It took 2 weeks to get moved into our home. We have met many people from all around the world. Cole and Carson have made a couple of friends. Cole has learned how to drive the golf cart. We take the ferry at least once a week. On the way home we take the bridge and the kids say how it looks like we are in New York. We are finally done with home school. We are still trying to find schools for the boys and maybe preschool for the twins. We walk around the campground usually twice a week. So far we are adjusting to the heat just fine. But when it rains, it pours, it floods!! Grandma Crystal, Mom, and kids have walked the French Quarter a couple of times. All four kids love it! Today the big boys and I baked cookies and made blue frosting. I think Tristin wore more than he ate! We miss everybody back home but we hope you are all doing well. So far we like where we are but every place has it ups and downs. One thing that will shock everyone is Nate bought shorts and tennis shoes and hasn't wore jeans or boots in weeks! Take care everyone
Love
Dawn and family
