Our Last Address!

We bought our first house! Jordan always steps in right when I say that to correctly state that we bought our retirement house! We shall see my dear :) We love it, it has exactly everything we had listed on our checklist of things we wanted in a house. The most obvious though is the view! We are up on a hill and while it is a BEAST to mow, we are thrilled to wake up every morning to this view!

House Before: Badly in need of a new roof, landscaping and TLC

A billion dollars and a new roof later - Perfection! We are so excited :)

Fife Update!

Hello you faithful blog readers! (all three of you ;) We have been so busy around here! First and most exciting is that we bought a house!! I do have pictures, but I am kind of excited to show before and after together, as it needed a lot of work and personal touch - think hot pink bedrooms and purple kitchen - so after paint and some touch ups, I will post pictures soon. Move in day is Mother's day weekend :) We also had a visit from my sister and her girls, and Michaela started ballet. I will let the pictures do the rest of the talking.

She couldn't figure out how to sit on there right!

Every four year old should have their own ipod....right????

Michaela reading to my parents

Preschool field trip - she was hesitant at first but got the hang of it!

Heidi loves to pull this wagon all around the yard!
