Nine Months Later...


We live here!


I have adapted to cottage living beautifully. I love our home. I love my YARD and my little GARDEN. I love my SWIMMING POOL and most of all my KITCHEN!



Our home is a fixer upper. The house was vacant when we bought it. The owner bought it and flipped it. (New paint job. Opened up the kitchen den area by knocking out a wall. Granite counters, new appliances and new tile and fixtures throughout the bath and bedrooms.) There are still many things that Greg and I can't wait to address. We would love to finish out the Basement with a den, bedroom and laundry room. (It may be awhile before we tackle this!) The concrete is cracking in the driveway, sidewalk and around the pool from tree roots. (But oh how I love my big trees! ) The wiring in the house is also kinda interesting. It could use some adjusting. To me this is all just character though. I love the fact that this house feels like home. My family and I can just simply dwell here, and we are so, so happy!




So happy in fact that I haven't had time to blog. So let's catch up some...

It's Christmas.


Noah is four 1/2






Cade is 20 months


These dudes are wild...



Often my day involves lots of this...



and this...
and I most often find myself here... Our days are full of laughter,(occasionally) tears, running, wrestling, pottying, tickeling, laundry and cooking. Just the way I like it!!

I can't wait to catch up some more in my upcoming posts. (That is if I actually post them!)

Livin' the dream!!
