At long last, our boxes 'o stuff!!

For those of you who have been previously following the saga of the shipment of our personal goods from home to here, at long last, we have receive the boxes. Well, 7 of the 8, anyway! We shipped them at the end of August, and more than 2 months later we finally received authorization to obtain our things. It has been quite a struggle to obtain our items from Mexican customs, as many of you have heard, but we have finally prevailed. Well, mostly anyway, we didn't get everything, and what we did receive was obtained not without lots of sweat, blood, and tears.

Anyway, Race is happy that he has some of his cool toys! The Quad is a definitely favorite! As seen below, he is well on his way to being a stuntman. He is able to get on the Quad and press the button to go, but turning is still a struggle, we need a bit more practice in that area. And sometimes he inadvertently presses the button while he is standing next to it, and it takes off with him still holding on. We all find it quite comical, including him, phew!







Another favorite pastime is emptying the cupboard of all the pots and pans. He loves it! And sometimes he might even help you put all of them back, but that isn’t as fun. They make a lot of noise when they fall as you can see from the action shot, the pan hasn’t hit the ground yet.
