An update on us!

ok I know I have been totally horrible about updating but life has been soooo busy! Where to start! Well we made it to England and spent the first three weeks here in the hotel on RAF Mildenhall. While we were there we found out new home! It's a small 3 bedroom bungalow in Lakenheath Village. It's about 10 mins from RAF Lakenheath and 20 mins from RAF Mildenhall. We met Austins office and everyone is REALLY REALLY nice!

On the 7th of march we moved into our new house! One of the things we love most about it is that fact that it's right around the corner from some new found friends we have made here. Lakenheath village is big enough to have what we need but small enough that everything is walking distance and it feels like a quaint little English village.

We had about a week to get everything as set up as we could until our first house guest was going to arrive. My little sister Lindsay was coming to spend a week with us for her spring break! We didn't know a whole lot about area by this point but we have good friends who have been here for two and half years and they have taken us all over showing us where to go and what to see. We took Lindsay to see Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds and a few other places around here. Also while Lindsay was here we celebrated my 22nd birthday! We went out to a real English pug to show Lindsay what England was all about! Good food and beer! Our week went way to fast and we wish she could stay longer. But we know she will back to visit alot while we are here.


Since then nothing to eventful has happened. We got the house pretty much all set up except for the garage and my craft room. Which hopefully by the end of this week will be totally set up too! We are over half way through the 6 months untill the dogs can come over. I can't wait! It will really make everything feel like home if when they get here. Have them playing in the yard and taking them on walks through the village.

Over all Life in England is wonderful we love it here and it feels just like home!
