After traveling all day we finally arrived at our new home for the next weeks, months ????
We were so exhausted when we got in that night - the kids got to bed at midnight!!!!
Even though we landed at 7, it took until 8:15 to get out of the airport (huge with a train to get to baggage claim), get our bags, get to the rental car and then get the car. Then drove to Oakwood (30 minutes) and got registered there, then got to our place and unloaded. Then we got back in the car (by this time around 10:30) and (after driving in circles) found a big grocery store and got stuff for dinner. It took some time to wind down.
We slept in a bit (of course O. was still up at 7!!!). We then registered both kids for school. N. starts on Monday. There are 6-3rd grade classes. The principal is reviewing her recent report card and will determine which class she'll start in. School for both of them is from 8:30 to 3:30 each day. K. will take N. to school on Monday to get her settled and then after that she'll take the bus. There is a bus stop just for all the Oakwood kids.
O. will start school on Tuesday as he has his reading assessment (1 hour) on Monday. So K. will get N. to the bus stop on Tuesday and then take O. to school on Tuesday. Both schools look great and the people in the office are nice.
Our place is great - each bedroom has it's own bathroom, we have a washer dryer in our walk in closet and a dishwasher in the kitchen. There's a balcony off the living room and our bedroom. They've been renovating Oakwood and I think we've got one of the recently renovated apartments. Here are some pictures of the living room and the kitchen.
