We Are Here!

It has almost been a week in Nashville, and things are starting to calm down and seem more like normal.  I have started my job, and Jennifer is working furiously to get us unpacked.  How did we get so much stuff?!?!?  We had to live for a few days without water due to confusion at the water department, and I just got our washer and dryer hooked up last night, and we are down to one car, and I have no idea what is going on at my job, but we are here!  

As soon as we get internet at the house Jennifer will get on here and talk about our new place a little, but I will tell you briefly about my job.  It has to be brief because I do not know much else.  I am working as a research assistant on a project within the Math Ed. dept. at Vanderbilt.  The first day they gave me an office (cubicle), computer, cool electronic card thingy that opens all the doors I need to get into, and I sat in on a video conference with the other half of our team at University of California-Berkley.  I left feeling excited, but scared because I had no clue what in the world I had gotten myself into.  But I am slowly starting to understand more and my work seems to be sufficient so far to those in charge of me.  I will update you as soon as I understand what I am doing. 

Below are some pictures of our week, just a few since I had to give the digital camera we have been using for the past year back to the school when I left.  Once we get a camera I will post more pictures. 



This is the building that my office (cubicle) is in.  It is really just a desk, but office sounds so much better.



Here are the boys (minus Andrew who was sleeping after a SERIOUS meltdown, and Kevin who is our photographer)
