Been to the school and apartment

We went to the school yesterday and the kids got to meet their teachers and we got to buy the uniforms (times 4 yikes!). They are looking forward to going to school on Monday and I am looking forward to them having a little routine and some time away from each other they are getting on each others nerves and on ours. :)
We went to check out our apartment today the kids were glad to see their rooms and to check out the complex - they have a little grocery store that has a little bit of a lot of different things but they have enough stuff that you could find everything you need for a meal - not the cheapest I am sure but will be very nice to be able to send someone down for milk or something.
Well it is after 7 here and we haven't had supper yet so we better figure that out and the kids would like to swim again - we have swam every night so far (well they have anyway)
Have a great weekend.

Trying to figure out Singapore :)

We are trying to get things lined up to move into our apt on Sunday but it seems that won't happen. We can get in our apt on Saturday but the condo won't allow deliveries on Sunday or after 11 on Saturday so it looks like Monday is our option.
Tomorrow we go to the school to meet the teachers and to get the uniforms. Emily is still not feeling well and Andrew says he isn't feeling so hot either so hopefully a good nights sleep will help them out!
Well I am off to bed - oh I forgot it took all 6 of us to try to figure out the washing machine and I still am not sure what Ryan did to get it to finally work.
Have a great day!

We are in Tokyo

We made it to Tokyo -
The kids did great on the flights so far although there was not much sleeping so we are getting tired and winey since it is 1:30 AM Tuesday for you guys. Hopefully we can get some sleep on the last flight and then still be tired enough to get some sleep in Singapore.
Thanks again for all that have helped us and continue to do so!
And for those in O'Fallon have a good snow day.

Time to Go - On the Next Adventure

Hello to all -
We are heading out tomorrow morning. The 3 little guys are asleep - hopefully! Dani, Ryan and I are trying to get the last stuff packed and the house set to be empty for a few months. Thanks to everyone that has helped us get ready for this new adventure in our lives. We will miss everyone and will look forward to seeing everyone this summer when we come back. Once we get there I will post photos of Singapore and our new home.
Love, hugs and kisses to all!
Meg, Ryan and kids

Got a house!

We found out last night that we got the Condo we wanted it is by the downtown area and has a great pool and a good location. - It was a challenge - they negotiate like they are buying/selling a house instead of renting it out. I am sure that it will the first of many things we don't understand while we are on this Adventure! I will try to get some pics up but they are on Ryan's computer.
Have a great weekend.

House Hunting

Hello everyone,
We have been looking at houses/condos for 2 days now. We have seen 23 total houses so we are a bit tired and getting them confused. :) We looked at some that are by the kids' school and some that were by Ryan's office and then some that are closer to the downtown area and American Club so now we need to decide where we would rather be. Once we pick one we will put some pictures up.
