. . . On With the New

Well, three days after moving day, I can actually say that we have almost finished unpacking all our boxes (and we did have quite a few!), and that I think we will be happy in our new home.

From the outside it looks like this:

 


Inside it looks like this:

 


But it is really all about this:

The deck,
 


and the backyard.
 


With plenty of room for this,

 


and this,

 


and especially this.

 


Yes, I am still too tired from moving and unpacking (not to mention comforting displaced children throughout the night) to construct actual sentences :)

I'm sure there will be many more stories to come. . . .

oh hello! I just heard about your blog from a mutual friend I didn't know we had - Anita S! My heart is so full to see how well you have settled in. We are still surrounded in boxes and trying to find a home for things in a house that we won't be staying in for very long. And they don't want us to put anything on the walls! Anyway, we'll get it sorted out. YOUR place looks great, and I can't wait to come for a visit.

Our first night here, Jaxon walked into his closet, trying to find the door! thankfully his grandma was sleeping in his room too so she was able to redirect him. :) Did you get my email and message about the curtain for the bedroom door?
