We Moved!

Betcha been wondering why there's been no posts for a while.  Besides having technical difficulties with this blog, WE MOVED!
The story's a long one, but I wanted to get some pics up first so here goes:

This is our driveway which was the excuse Bryce needed to get a jumbo John Deer snowblower.
Our backyard.  "Yard" used loosely here as you can see, no grass.
Here's a view of the backyard looking out from our kitchen.
Our friendly front porch.

As you walk in, this is what it looks like to the right.  OR what it did look like.  This is not our stuff but the staging company's fixin's.
Eating area and kitchen.
Family room, eating area, and kitchen all are open to one another.
The dining room next to the kitchen which is now our "drawing room".  Can you tell I've been reading a lot of Jane Austen lately?  It's contains craft supplies and our piano.  Hence, the drawing title.
Now if you go back to the font door and look up, here's what you see...a cute loft.
Can you see why we fell in love with this place?
Back to the front door.  If you look to the left you'll see our formal living room which,  in reality, is anything but formal.  Right now it contains boxes and junk.  But maybe someday may contain a desk and bookshelves or something.
Adjacent to the living room is a bathroom and Brielle's room.
Now let's go upstairs.
Here's the master bedroom.
And bath.
There are also two kid room upstairs with a jack and jill connecting them together.  This allows kids to be up to something without parents' knowledge which I have already learned.
Now down to the basement.
And a selling point for us was this cute little playhouse they built under the stairs.

Galina's already begun decorating as you can imagine.
There's even a door down there so we can let Daisy out when we're too lazy to head upstairs and let her out from the laundry room.
Speaking of laundry room, here it is, next to the kitchen and garage.
And there you have it, our dream home on 4.66 acres.  I'll have to tell the story in another post in the future.  But needless to say, we feel incredibly blessed.  Incredibly.  We have been known to walk around aimlessly asking aloud, "Can you believe this is really our house?"  I guess hard work really does pay off, Father!  That and God's favor on us.  Thank you, Lord!
