So, I haven't been posting a whole lot lately, or on anyone's blog, or on the computer at all lately. There is a reason to that. Is it the great weather we have been having? Nope. All the time I spend at the kids school? Nope. It is because we bought a new house! This goes way back to almost 2 years ago when we moved here where I wish we had more than 4 days to pick a house!!! We were very blessed and found a great house, at a great price, in a great neighborhood. However, we have found a new house, that cuts our mortgage in half, and lowers our taxes, and comes with 1.07 acres! So we are pretty excited! We finally got the keys this past week, and Brad has done most of the work himself so far. We are updating the kitchen since we are going to be there a good long time! The school is fantastic! It is the school Eden was tested at, and it has great programs and teachers for her there. There are a lot of kids around us too, and Isaac will get the tree house he has been wanting! Here are a few pictures of the outside.
This is from the back of the property (the pasture) going to the back of the house (the hot tub was a bonus that came with the house).
This is from the "formal outdoor living space" to the pasture area.
Even 3 lb. Lily is loving it. She thinks she is a fully fledged "Ranch Dog".
Oh and we have chickens. An even dozen for now because some will probably die. It was also a discount for 12 or more..... The six small all yellow and all black ones are small chickens and will be really fluffy (like bunnies). They are very tame, and will follow you around and like to be pet. The 4 brown striped ones lay turquoise (blue/green) eggs. They are the medium size chickens, they are also very tame, and like to be pet and talked to. The 2 black with yellow bellies are the large chickens they will lay the large eggs. They are tame, and look out for the smaller chickens.

So I will be posting some updates with pictures and before and afters of rooms as we get them decorated. The renos on the kitchen are preventing us from moving in for about 1.5 weeks, but we will get there.....
Loves & Later!

This is the place we talked about all those years ago, a property with land. I couldn't be happier. Enjoy and post lots of pictures.
