We made it! We actually arrived in Sumter yesterday afternoon around 2. (Sorry we didn't update sooner!) The apartment is actually pretty nice and much better than we expected. It has three bedrooms, a living room,, little dining area and a decent kitchen. I was also relieved to find a washer and dryer in our unit. The furniture isn't the nicest and the bed will take some getting used to, but we are feeling pretty lucky to be here together.
Jack slept pretty well in his new room and new bed last night. His closet is enormous so we already set up his Thomas "fort" in there. Poor little Ellie has a cold. She is so stuffed up and is having a hard time nursing because of it. But, she spent the first portion of the night in her new room in the crib provided. We brought her bedding from home but her "nursery" is sad compared to her room at home. At least she's too young to know how lame it is.
We'll take some pictures this weekend so you can see how new home for the next 4.5 months. Wish us luck settling in.

I wonder if your apartment rivals the Eagle Trace? This is all sounding so reminiscent, though! You'll have a great time, have some good stories to tell, and will be so so thankful to be back home. In the meantime...have a blast! Glad you made it there safe and sound. (If you have a neighbor named Rolando, tell him we said hi!)
Damn! the facilities sound pretty good for an AEF rotation!
I assume you will be intoducing your childred to your all time favorite movie, SHAG! Seems only fitting as you get settled in Sumter, South Carolina!
Have fun!
forgive the newbie BlackBerry mistakes too
