We've moved!

We are moved and settled in to our new apartment in Ann Arbor (known to the locals as AA. Not to be confused with Alcoholics Anonymous, but it might be easy to confuse them when one is visiting downtown, or near the stadium during a football game). We absolutely love it here, and love the ward. Everyone has been so nice, and generous, and welcoming, that I finally feel like this could be somewhere we will never want to leave.

Here are some pictures of our new place, and the 4th with our new friends.

A bad picture of the finished product.



Steve's program chairman had a bbq at his 'estate' on the 4th, and I thought that I was at a very casual wedding. It was catered, and had big white tents set up everywhere. It was unreal. This guy actually invented the pulse-oximeter (?) that you put on your finger and it tells you your blood oxygen level. Needless to say, the man is loaded, but actually very down to earth and very friendly. I hope I can be like that even after I make some huge invention that changes people's lives.

Rachel's new best friend. They are so cute together, and whenever they're together, they can be found playing 'Captain Rocket and Rose Girl'. They are quite the pair.

Shaun and his new buddies. The one on the left of the picture is his new best friend, Hyrum. They love each other.

Nathan being adorable and making new friends wherever he goes.
