Home Sweet Home

Hi everyone! Just to let you know, there is going to be a huge difference between how Scott writes and how I write. He'll probably be more entertaining, while I will be more informative. A pretty good mix I think. We are finally in Connecticut and we finally have the internet! It's a day we've been waiting for for a while. We like CT, it's a lot different than Utah, and as you will see from the pictures, we did have a little bit of a shock when we saw our apartment for the first time.

The Kitchen

It was a tiring weekend!

This is the view from our back door.

Me, taking a picture of our back door

The front of our apartment. It's the one right in the center.

Random shack in the front. Kind of creepy.

Our bedroom window. It took us days to figure it out and the moths poured in in the meantime.

The pretty yellow bathroom. At least it looks clean in this picture.

So this is our apartment. We hopefully will have more pictures uploaded tomorrow. Other than our apartment, we also know how to get to Wal-Mart and the post office. Our world is a little small right now, but we're hoping to get to Boston and Salem later this week or next. The ward is really nice and has been extremely welcoming, although it's going to be difficult to socialize with them, outside of church activities, since our ward boundaries are about 60 miles around. For some reason, I thought there would be more LDS people around, but no such luck. We also haven't figured out a way to meet our neighbors yet. Maybe cookies are in order. Oh yeah, as one final thought for today, Scott and I saw two wild turkeys wandering through our backyard last night. It was totally crazy!!! We wanted to get pictures, but it was raining so hard it was impossible. They eventually wandered off into the brush behind our house, but it was pretty silly watching them!!!! That's all for today. We miss everyone and love you all!!
