Our ground shipment that is. We received our belongings from our stateside home a week ago.
(above) Our GREAT room not looking so great.
Kid three has called this the Wii shipment since it left the house and is anxiously awaiting my approval of location where the Wii will be set up in our new home.

(above) I was warned I would want hangers, the real ones we know and love, so I packed them, and then I missed them. It is sort of like the multiplication by 9 tricks. You hear about it and maybe are a little curious about it but until you really know and experience it, you truly don't understand how wonderful it really is.
Kid middle recovered from her stomach ailment in time to join the fifth grade class trip to Ronthanbore and took some impressive photos.
(above) A view from above in Ronthanbore.
She saw many birds and learning the appreciation of bird watching from her grandparents. She snapped many photos of different birds.
Kid one now has a transcript from her stateside school showing she completed the first semester and has grades to prove that accomplishment. She is now a full time student at AES and only AES which is a load off her plate.
The mister and I have been buying furniture to store our belongings in. Closets are not something Indian homes have much of and we are finding we are quite fond of putting things out of sight. Shopping for wardrobes and cabinets has become our weekend habit.

She also saw a lot of other wild life;
And what everyone goes to Ronthanbore to see...the tigers, she saw prints to show tigers had been here.

She recently was put in touch with a viola so she can start to play again here in India. She has missed her instrument and it feels so cruel to tell a child you can't play music when there is such a desire to do so.Kid one now has a transcript from her stateside school showing she completed the first semester and has grades to prove that accomplishment.
