Settling in

The settling in process has started. We moved into our new home about two weeks ago, and it is pretty much all in order. I think there are only about 3 cardboard boxes remaining to be sorted out. Everything else is tidied up. Well-done me (and hubby, of course, especially as his bit of the closet was tidied a lot faster than mine. he's got less stuff though).

The weather has been yo-yoing quite a lot. One day it's 27 and you eat outside thinking it's summer, and the next it's pouring down. That's winter in Houston. Warm enough on most days for M to play outside with water, which is something she hardly ever got to do in Scotland.

On an American note, my lovely cupcake maker (curtesy of my MIL) has arrived and is going to be tried this very afternoon. Looking forward to that.

And of course it's the superbowl this weekend. We are not into it at all (should probably try to I guess)... Apparently we are supposed to sit on the couch and eat wings whilst watching an advert with David Beckham in it. Should be interesting.

Sunshine, cookies, and a garden (ooops I meant backyard). Pretty good so far.
