Merry Christmas Everyone!

The girls 1st day of school in Clovis!

Happy New Year everyone. We are in our new home in Clovis, NM and the girls have started school and things are rolling. I have been a little behind posting so this includes our last activities in Ankara, Turkey. Maddie had a wonderful Brownie troop and Ella enjoyed her kindergarten with only 9 children in her class.

We have met many new families and I have included some pictures from this weekend including the back of our home. The park is right behind our house, so nice! The classes are a bit larger than Turkey, but I am VERY happy with both the K and 3rd grade, yeah!

I also included some fun shots from Christmas. The family received a nerf gun set and I cannot enter a room without being hit with at least 10 darts! Ella received a Hannah Montana dress-up set and she enjoys singing for us all!

Happy 2010 to you all. May this year bring joy and laughter and many fond memories to cherish! Jessie and family
