Our Cute House

This is SUCH a cute house! We really like it, there are things of course that we aren't crazy about, but it will do until we get into housing....which by the way, we found out yesterday that we are now #4 on the list...so needless to say, I am DONE unpacking!! I have now moved on to "organizing" and if it's still in a box, well, it can just stay there for another month, unless I REALLY need it!!

Anyway, back to the house. Per all the requests, here are pics! It really is adorable and has a lot of charm...but things I miss...kids can't ride their bikes out front, no dishwasher (ick!), wash and dry clothes on the back porch...things I can only deal with for a SHORT time!! LOL

Here ya go! The first few are from moving in day...







And now with furniture!


The adorable front yard...I do love the fence for obvious reasons, but also b/c they can play out front without fear of running into the street.


Still in progress, but you asked!

Chandler's room!

Falyn's room...she loved the fairy mural on the walls immediately!!

Faith's room...she picked the biggest one!!

View out the back door

Nice big porch to enjoy those crisp morning and evenings.

The shed....in the middle of being unpacked/organized.

The best part about the whole house....the backyard!! We ALL love it!!




Ok, that should do for now...just no making fun of all the boxes everywhere!! :)

Road Trip!

Here's some photos from last week as we made our way to San Diego!

Our first stop was in Albuquerque to meet up with one of my "preggo buddies". Heidi and I have known each other since 2000 when we were both pregnant with our oldest (ok her only!), have spoken on the phone, but haven't ever met in person till this trip. We met via a preggo forum on iVillage.com and have a buddy group of 10 whom we have maintained contact for over 7 years! They are my girlies, and I love them!! We figured that a good place to take all the kids was Chuck E Cheese...2 days in the car, and it was the perfect fit!! We had a blast meeting Solana and chatting with Heidi! Love ya girls!!





From ABQ to GORGEOUS Flagstaff, AZ!! What a BLAST we had there! We spent 2 days and played in the snow, went to the Grand Canyon...just a BLAST!! The kids had never seen snow before and LOVED it! I will post some video too!!







Grand Canyon pics....you saw some from my phone, and the rest I took with the "mac daddy" camera, so you have to wait on those! :)

Miss you all! Love you!!
xoxoxo

We're here!!! YAY!!!

We made it to San Diego on Saturday! Been trying to find a place to live ever since! Our friends, Jebbye and Jason have been awesome enough to open up their home to us and cause mad chaos with our 5 combined children!! LOL We've have a few appointments today to view homes, so wish us luck!

It's so awesome to be back here. I've really missed it!!

Love and hugs to all!!

The Grand Canyon

There are no words for this place....have you heard George Straits new
song yet? "I saw God today" Thats how I felt!! Breathtaking!!

Arriving in Flagstaff

Oh what fun we are having! We hit I think 6 different stores
yesterday to find snowboots for the kids! What kind of ski town has
Spring clothes out already?? Oy! Today will be fun when we head up
to the snowbowl to play!

Xoxoxo

Snowstorm!

Ever driven in one?? Weird!!

9 hours to the middle of no where!

Somewhere in the middle of no where Texas!

And there's still room!

We're almost set to go! Hitting the road early in the morning! I can
post from my iPhone! Whoo hoo!
