Moving the Arnolds

We made it back to Dubuque on Friday to help Aunt Ann Louise and Uncle Todd move from their apartment to their new house in Asbury.  It was a really nice day on Friday, so the moving started a bit earlier than expected due to the upcoming rain.  

After we moved the boxes from the apartment, we kinda chilled out in the house for a bit and enjoyed some Godfathers pizza.  Alicia had a good time playing the "Mickey Mouse/Donald Duck" game with Grandpa,  She claimed an empty box there and played in it for a good hour or 2.  Then she found the chest (i'm sure there's a better word for it) that Auntie Up won at a work auctioin.  Its pretty cool, as it fits in the kitchen, and Alicia likes to think its her personal hiding spot.  She would sit in the middle and with the doors closed, she'd jump out.  then jump back in.  It was quite cute.

Anyways.. We had a good trip seeing everyone again.... and look forward to our return after our disney trip.  

A few other highlights from the trip:

*  She said her name was Alicia (or something similar) to Auntie Up.... but now still calls herself me.

*  She helped Ann Louise/Todd put the pans away... Mommy may have to post the pic of this from her phone.  it was cute.

*  She was able to name Tony and Ann from the wall of pictures.  This was a first to my knowledge.

anyways.. its late.. time for bed.
