Finally getting after this post. A couple weeks ago we made the big move from our place in Yomitan to our new house that we absolutely love! Not only are we closer to the commissary, exchange, gym, and the tennis courts, but we are closer to our friends! It was getting to be a lot traveling at least 25 minutes to do anything. We would have to make a morning or afternoon of whatever it was we were going to do that day. Not to mention my commissary runs were stressful because I never knew when I would be back again, so I stocked up on everything imaginable! Tony was in mainland the day we officially moved. People back home thought I was nuts for tackling it alone with Quinn (we hired movers)...but she did awesome and it turned out as well as it possibly could. On Saturday, November 16th when the movers came to our place in Yomitan, they had strict orders to a) do all loud things outside and b) move her crib at "this time" and back into the new house at "this time". The movers were not happy with me asking them to do all the taping outside. The money we paid them that day, I didn't feel TOO bad about it. So as the guys packed the downstairs, Quinn was sleeping soundly upstairs. It was perfect. Anyways, overall the move went great. Tony surprised us and even came home that Sunday night so I only had to stay in the new house 1 night by myself! It was 4 days sooner than we were expecting. It was a great surprise as you can imagine :) Here are a few pics of our weekend. I had a little help from a few local girls that I knew from Santa Monica on Sunday. They entertained Quinn and helped me unload all the boxes. They were a huge help!!! We are completely moved in now :)

Quinn's last nap in her room. She was a happy girl that day :) So was mom actually!
Quinn helped me sign the papers at the housing office
Chibana house. This was a shortcut in moving all our things upstairs. They even did this with the treadmill. They're crazy.
