I hate moving. This is the seventh move we've done in the last 5 years. I AM SO TIRED of the routine. I should have learned my lesson this time and just KEPT every thing in boxes... Bah... And Hudson is at that delightful stage where he wants to be helpful, but really only succeeds in undoing my hard work. :( He's also having a hard time understanding that we're packing his things away so that they don't get lost in the move to Montana (or Bontanya as Hudson pronounces it).

In other Hudson news, he's OBSESSED with Kung-Fu Panda. For the last three weeks, he has been kung-fuing everything in sight. He will only answer to "Kung Fu Tiger" apparently I'm Monkey and Jason is Bear. He does all these cute poses ( I will get pictures to show you soon or better yet video.) He even sings "Evey body Kung fu fighting da da da da da da da daaaa." It's funny...

But I have wasted time blogging when I should be cramming stuff in boxes... Blech... Back to work.

My litte tree hugger! It was fun to watch him climb his first tree all by himself, even though it was about a foot off the ground! :)

Grandpa Griffin playing horse with Hudson. The people on the real horses got a big kick out of seeing them. :)

My beautiful sister!!

Here's Hudson living it up in the sand! He loved rolling down the dunes, and I joined in a few times. Even though it was a little windy and chilly, the sunshine and the warm sand made it an ideal day at the beach!

Some of my favorites of Hudson and Zachary on Saturday Morning. Those two cousins play SO well together. It's like no time at all was lost between their last visit.

So... Montana is a reality. Jason just spent the last five days there looking for a place to rent. He found one! :) It's a cute house with 2 bedrooms and a basement. It also has Washer and Dryer Hookups, which means we get to pull our washer and dryer out again after letting them rest in my parents' garage. :) Yippee! No more hauling loads of laundry through the snow and spending more than $30 a month in quarters...

Also, compared to the 550 sqft box like apartment we've been living in, it's a mansion! :) Well, it seems like one to us. It has a fenced back yard, but we need to buy a lawn mower... I'm thinking the cool push kind my dad has always used. He was "green" before it was cool to be green... and thrifty... :) Anyway, Jason is back now and Hudson's super excited to have his daddy back!

Next weekend is the family reunion, and I'll be posting photos soon.
