Life in our New House!

Coloring is a grand pastime (we won't mention the crayons that are broken, chewed on, or picked apart...) and one of Derek's favorites! He is very good!
Nanny don't look, that is a library book, Rodales? Gardening to be precise, oops! No really it is fine. I love it when Caleb puts things on his head, he loves too, I have missed many cute pictures of various toys, two hats at a time, a stuffed dog, yeah he does that a lot, remember the bucket at Nanny's? :D

Do you think they are happy they have a bathtub at the new house? I am not sure ;p

It is hard to show the colors right as the flash changes it and I am no longer very adept with a camera (took photo class in school and was pretty good with an old all manual one, brag, brag :p now I am just old and out of date :D)

But isn't it PRETTY!!! I love all the colors and variation in it, I think it is grand and Brent did an awesome job :D:D Soooo happy to have such a lovely floor, now we just need to finish it so others can come visit and enjoy it too!

Some things I am enjoying very much:

• having a bathtub (we have two!)
• all the windows and light!
• good air circulation (we keep the windows open :D)
• a full kitchen! Brent and I fit at the same time :D
  
• our own yard in which to plant and plan and dream ;)
• more than one toilet (I think the boys and I share a schedule ;p)
  
• the beautiful wood floor my Sweety installed
• friendly neighbors who helped us move some furniture
  
• SPACE!!! :)

Some things I enjoy a little less ;p :

• close proximity of the neighbours (can hear more than we need to! we were spoiled in the country)
• ridiculous driveway (you already know that one!)
  
• hearing all the traffic go by (Brent hates the trains, there are a LOT)
  
• no privacy ( don't worry we are working on getting curtains up :D)
• trying to keep the boys in our yard!
