More home

Will put this slide show together of the house. I wish I could do all those cool things on my computer. His Mac rocks! The pictures of the pool and park are the community facilities. I wish the play equipment was in our back yard. But it is in walking distance, so I can't complain too much.

I don't know why it has a single picture of the first pic of the slide show...I can't get rid of it either. I also said I'd have pics of the commons/loft area so you could see how we managed to not have any hallways. So I finally took some.

Now we have Logan and Gramma hangin' out before we moved. We stayed with them from the 2nd of July until moving day, the 7th of July. Derek jumped in there for some of the action, too.


On one of my near future posts I'm going to put pictures up of the rewards and rules we have hanging in the commons area (you can see them in small form on the pics I put up today). We find they work very well, and we've changed the feel of our rules to be much more positive then they were before.

Our House Part Deux

Here's some more of the pictures I've taken since arriving.


Here's the boys at our Island and a tiny taste of all the trees

Trees are everywhere! The picture with the trampoline is our back yard (the trampoline is the neighbors').

Kaleb lounging in the commons and Tyler in the Media room.

I never thought I'd have this much closet space. Will's side is on the left and my side is on the right (I think he has more clothes than I do). :)

There's 4 bedrooms, one we use as an office, since Will is working from home. All the "Bedrooms" are upstairs. I'll get a picture of the commons area facing all the doors to the bedrooms and bathrooms to show how we've avoided any hallways (my biggest dislike in a home). We are loving all the space. I have my mostly clean sanctuary downstairs and the mess can be upstairs. And, yes, the boys try to get away with all kinds of shinanigans on the stairs, but we try to keep it at a minimum so no one gets hurt on them. Yes, we like to spoil all the fun. Haha. The next post is going to have some of the things we were able to do during the summer...so stay tuned.

Our House

The long awaited pictures. 

The front of the house (picture taken while in motion from passenger seat) and Entry.  

Mater on the stairwell to upstairs and the Living Room downstairs.

Our Heaven sent Soaking Tub and the Master Bath with Logan going potty.

We love it here! It's so beautiful.  The trees are so lush and the hills are green.  I never imagined Tennessee to be as beautiful as it is.  I thought it would be more like the flat lands of the US.  But it's like the East Coast.  LOVE IT!!  We also miss all our family and friends we had to leave.  If we could have this home with all our loved ones with us life would be perfect!  So I guess we're only mediocre for now. :)
