Our New House


We closed on a new house in November! It was a long process from when we first moved from Virginia until now but the wait was worth it. God has really blessed us in so many ways, including a wonderful home to call our own.

Right after moving in we knew the yard needed some help. So we removed a hugh amount of bushes and trees around the front and back of the house. Then the cold came so we left it. We were really hoping there would be enough snow to cover it all, but no such luck! Here are some pictures of the inside:

First time in the house with keys in hand!

down all the overgrown bushes

Kids playing by the office doors with
laundry/mudroom & bathroom behind them

Family Room with fireplace, TV and windows.
Now how do you decorate a two story wall...

Our favorite part, huge windows!

Office where I spend lots of time
when kids are napping.

The kitchen, our main hang out! Located
between the family room & dining room.

Dining room...however we are turning it into a toy room until
we finish the un-finished basement.

Upstairs master bedroom (before furniture).
There are 4 bedrooms & 2 baths upstairs.

Our backyard stone path

Our backyard deck, patio & woods. There is
a park path right behind the woods.

Thanks for viewing! Hope to see many of you soon.


Update on Life


Wow, I haven't posted in so long! Made in just under a year. So much has changed! Including I need to change my blog title now that I have moved back to Minnesota. (I so wish I had posted more pictures as my hard drive crashed and I lost two months of photos.)

Geoff is enjoying his new job with MPC. It is rewarding and also very demanding. I'm still "playing" with the kids full time and do some coaching and web development on the side. Our biggest excitement, is closing on a new house in November. I'll put a separate post with some photos.

Here are some pictures of life now:
