The whole experience of staying at Nikki and Steve's house has turned out to be surprisingly easy and fun. It's like being in college again in some ways - there are so many people around all the time, there's always a lot of activity and a lot of fun. In addtiion to us, Nikki, and Steve, another co-worker of Jay and Steve's stays here during the week, so it's really a constant party. Nikki is a serious cook, so the evening activities always center on the kitchen between the cooking, eating dinner, cleaning up (the boys are good about helping), and me prepping lunches for the next day (Kate's and mine). Again, the generosity of Nikki and Steve is incredible, and very much appreciated. It's just been an added bonus to make new friends!
