Our New Home

Okay, so here's the "Full Sun" room. It's Ben's Ligtning McQueen room and he picked the paint color. He also is choosing to have a red wall with a lightning bolt on it, but we haven't gotten the wall up yet. That wall will separate Ben and Anna Kate's rooms. It was originally a three bedroom converted to a two bedroom for a large master.
This is our room. We have decided to carpet it, which will be Monday. That means we have to move all the furniture out of it!
Okay, so here's the main bathroom. Can anyone say "yikes"? I think when it's done, it will be rather nice, however, right now it's a little on the rough side. A little secret...I haven't had a REAL bath in a couple of days. I definitely need to make a trip to mom's tomorrow before choir practice for a shower!
Yes, it's a bathtub in the living room...patiently waiting for it's home in the bathroom. If we could figure out how to plug it up, I guess we could bathe here? Well, maybe not!
Yes, go ahead and have a laugh at our expense! This was in the flower bed out back when we bought the house...a little added bonus, I guess. I was teasing Ben and told him he had an outside toilet to use and Anna Kate thought I was being serious. She asked the other day when we were putting the bathtub out in back with the potty!
Just had to put this in...isn't he cute?
God definitely blessed us with a nice big living room! It's great for all four kids. There's lots of room to run and lots of places for Colton to get into something...you gotta love that kid!
Not much to say...kitchen! Except, praise the Lord for cabinets I didn't have to refinish!
Dining room...
Anna Kate's Tinkerbell room. Mimi got her the canopy above her bed. She loves it! She actually is starting out in her own bed now at night...I'm just wondering when she'll stay in it all night. Truth be told, I love to snuggle with my kids at night! They'll only be this young once...and they are growing so fast!

Hey Jenny!

Your new place looks great! I hope Josh mentioned to you guys that we'll be in town next week. He just found out yesterday that he hadn't told Aaron we were coming. We're actually in transit now, but we'll be going to Cari's graduation this weekend and hanging with my family, so we'll be at the J/S Tuesday. I hope we can hang some!

The new house looks great. I'm sure you are thankful for the large living room with all the kids around. :) The kids rooms look adorable too--Ben and his Lightning McQueen and Anna Kate with Tinkerbell--so fitting for each of them. Can't wait to see it and see you all. (O.k., the guy at the door is kind of cute!hehe) Love you all.

So when ARE you going to put the bathtub out by the toilet? I'm sure the neighbors would love bath time if you did that! It looks like it is coming together. Enjoy your new home.
