Kansas...

Jimmy finally finished all his training and got his orders for his 1st duty station. Ft.Riley in Kansas. Chloe and I drove all the way from Georgia to meet him here. It was a long long drive! It took us about 15hrs. We did stop and spend the night in St.Louis though. After we got here we lived in a hotel for about 2weeks and finally found a place to live and moved in about a week ago! We are still waiting on the movers to come with our belongings. I found my USB cord today. This whole time I thought it was packed up in a box. I'm glad we're out of a hotel but, it's been rough living in our new place without any of our stuff! I kinda had a feeling it might take a while for our stuff to get here so I packed a lot of extra stuff in the car. Like an air mattress, blankets, sheets, and towels, etc. Good thing, otherwise we would be sleeping on the floor! Chloe is probably the only one enjoying the empty space. It's too cold to play outside so she can run around inside. So far Kansas isn't so bad. It's very pretty. Everyone seems to think it's flat here. For the record it's NOT. We're at the foot of the Flint Hills. We're also right next to Colorado so that should tell you something.


Here's Chloe all bundled up ready to leave the hotel in St.Louis. We had about a 5hr. drive left. It was so cold there! That day they actually cancelled school due to cold weather. It wasn't even snowing it was just super cold.


Jimmy cleaning out the car as I sat inside being lazy. The car was a disaster after the drive. The backseat was full of food and crumbs! That's what a 2yr old does to a car during a 15hr. drive. I wish I took a picture, it was so gross!


Our new table(jimmy picked it out). It's really big. I think we were feeling desperate for something comfortable to sit on, since we don't have our couches here yet.



Chloe fell asleep watching a movie on her portable movie player. Thank heaven for those! This poor girl always falls asleep in the most awkward places.



I didn't pack enough toys for Chloe so Jimmy went out and bought her some Lincoln logs. She built this tower and was so proud of herself! Notice her short hair too. I had 3inches cut off. Her hair was so long but, so thin! It looks so much better this length.
