First week in Peoria

 Poor Chuck had his birthday in the middle of our move.  He got to spend the day telling the movers where to put everything in the rental.  He even helped carry some stuff in to expedite the process.  We bought Culvers butter burgers and cheese nuggets for everyone that day for lunch.  Since our moving team was from the south we figured we would get them something they can't get back home.  Since we were moving all day we didn't get a cake or make Chuck's b-day dessert.  We did stick a candle in a pint of custard though.  We'll celebrate properly when he finally moves up here.

 We spent the week digging through boxes finding the things we need and don't need in the rental.  We did take a few breaks for the kids so they wouldn't get too bored.  The kids are enjoying the park that is near our house.  They like walking down to the fishing docks.  Here's our first family picture in Peoria.  Sasha was too distracted by the critters in the water to look at the camera.

By the end of the week we were getting settled in the rental.  We were only unpacking what we need for the next couple of months.  Most of it is staying in boxes.  Chuck had to go back down to Birmingham to finish fellowship and our house had windows.
