Moved In

Not only have we moved into our new house, we are almost all the way unpacked too!  It is taking us time to get everything unpacked, and in its place... We did so much the first week, and then the 2nd week we just walked around the boxes that were still out. Since then we have most everything unpacked and some things packed back up to get rid of!  Only 3 things have been hung on walls, so that makes the house look a little empty, but I am trying to figure out where I want everything.  Besides all the moving stuff, WE LOVE IT!  The house is great, so well kept and there is plenty of room.  I love it, Clay loves it and the kids really love it.  They didn't want to leave to go anywhere the first week or so.  We had some really nice weather and got to enjoy the BIG back yard, sprinkler and BBQing included.  On the not so great days the kids seem to think riding their bikes in the garage is just as much fun.  On a side note, Elliot called it the basement for a few weeks.  

 Sofia, the doll that was hunted for and was the only thing Gabby wanted to find.  Took us 2 days and dumping out all the boxes with any toy in it to find her.  Here they are reunited and in their matching dresses, oh and Spiderman too.

 As of now, the kids spend more time ON the playhouse than in it.  Here Gabby is trying to tie her rope to the chimney, and then attach it to the shopping cart.  To make a zip line, duh.

 I had to put a stop to that brilliant idea, and instead they settled for a clothesline, which meant they needed to take off their clothes!

 See how big this yard is?? We play games of softball and even set up all the bases (not really up to regulation!)

 One of the best things about the house,  it comes with cousinS.... we walk a few times a day back and forth.  The poor house between us, G & E don't seem to understand they can't run right across his front yard.

 Where do you find this boy, in the backyard... always!

Cousin C has gotten brave enough to ride the tire swing.  "Uncle Clayt" built it and it is by far the coolest thing around for all 3 big enough to play on it.

 E's YELLOW room, so bright it is mistaken for green.  This was day 1.... it looks much different now, included tonight are 2 kids.  G asked if she could have a sleep over in his bed.  I love how much they love each other!

 G's pink room.  The first corner looked so pale, and then BAM, it is all bright pink. It is full of toys and  her restaurant has reopened here (if you are familiar, she owns and operates a Chili restaurant that doesn't serve chili.  It was established in VB)

 so many boxes.

 The big truck that drove all our stuff here!  I was so pleasantly surprised that nothing was infested with bugs or animals, no damage and not stinky, and most of all that it wasn't sold off in a Storage locker auction..... all nightmares of mine during the 6 months we waited to get it.

 The AMAZING E, he can walk on air- or jump of ladders!

This is the sweetest girl, so blessed to have another baby in our family.  My sister let me watch her a few hours today while her and Char napped.  

Okay, so now that we have internet and are getting back to a routine I will try to get back on this blogging train!
