Um. 60 posts behind, maybe


Oops! So much for keeping this New Year's Resolution... :) Hahaha! Okay, I'm fine and soooo thankful to be able to say that the reason I have gotten so behind is because we finished up last years school year, started house hunting and then moved. :) So, my last post was in March, that would make me about 60 posts behind... Eek. :0 I think I'm going to just go from here. We have been in the new house for about 3 weeks now and still have not found the silverware, but we are loving the space. This is our first home to own. We are so blessed.
To name a few things:

1. it is over twice the size of our last one! We went from 1,065 sqft to 2180 sqft!
2. We have 2 bathrooms now, not just one. Thank You, Lord! :)
3. I have a DISHWASHER! Yay! I love it!
4. The Homeschool Closet has upgraded to the Homeschool Room!
5. We have gained a fire place, which I have always wanted!
6. There is a wonderful laundry room!
7. A living and family room, plus 2 dining areas. :D
8. I have a green sink, stove top and oven that are original to the house, which I LOVE!
9. All the bedrooms are soooo roomy. :)
10. Oh, and we also got a pool with the house! :) It's been great with the 100+ weather we've been having! Whew!

I wake up and just look around and feel so blessed to live here. I am so grateful that we didn't buy the 3 other houses that we actually made offers on. This is the one that fits our family. It has everything from both of our lists in it and more. I really hope that this blog doesn't come across as bragging. I have actually never lived in a house that my family actually owned, since my family bought their first home after I went to college, so this is all so exciting to me. :) I will post some pics! :)








So, there are a few pics of the house! :) I have many more, but it just seems to take a little bit to get them on and I MUST sleep! :) Happy Saturday! :) Looking forward to this coming week because the hubby is taking off from work to help get things in order! We're having a "staycation" as they say! ;) Yahoo! I can't wait to find the silverware, the Phonics curriculum, and the pet net hooks! :/ Hahaha! Blessings!
