We got to Bismarck August 18th so Rich could start at his new NWS office Aug. 19th. We can't close on our new house until Sept. 9th (arghhh) because the appraisal's are so backed up, so we are staying at the Candlewood Suites...all 6 of us, the 2 dogs, and Perry the fish. We have 2 rooms, which helps, but are already going a little stir crazy. Thank goodness for the hotel pool! The kids have been swimming at least twice a day every day. Matt started tennis practice with the high school team...the tennis team is 7th through 12th grades. There are 2 7th graders, a ninth grader, and high school boys on the team. He loves it though, and is learning quite a bit already. Luckily, the season is only a month long since the nice weather doesn't last long in the fall! The kids start school Thursday Aug. 27th. Tyler and Matt both have their schedules, and Ben talked to his teacher on the phone a few days ago. Rich has a couple of days off so we decided to head over to Grandpa Jim's to get ourselves out of the hotel. The wheat is all golden and ripe and they are starting to combine. It's a great time to be here..it's so cool to see all the combines in the fields!
