Pictures


Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the past weeks.

Lulu and JP checking out a visitor at our window.


We took the kids to a swimming party, and Lulu had so much fun! She loves the water.


JP at the party.

Immy with a friend up on the playset. Can you guess what her favorite color is?

Here is the trailer we are staying in. It rains here a lot; this is a picture from the gate right before a storm.

Ha ha, this is my favorite!
Penguins and pineapple, what could they possibly have in common?
Looks like we have another reader in the family.

Dinner and Drinks

Dh and I made it out for a date-night on Friday. We went down to the beach to a great restaurant called Pandora's. The food was so good, and we each had a wonderful cocktail over dinner. Mine was a chocolatini; it was like dessert. Dh had the Manhattan, an old favorite, what a smell! Reminding us of good times with good friends!

Kids and Cows

Here is a picture of Lulu and Nephew. They were playing king-of-the-hill on this old wooden tool box. They had so much fun jumping and yelling like it was a big stage!

Here is a picture of the cows. They like to nuzzle my van and lick the rain water off the hood. Jason and I are totally not farm people so this has been interesting.

Family

No new news on the house, so I thought I would post a picture of my family. We took this a few weeks ago so this is as recent as it gets!

A house


Yes, we have finally found a house. We put in an offer, it was accepted, and unless something falls through we will be closing by the end of the month! It's a lovely house; I would like to say home, but it just doesn't feel like a home yet. Hopefully once it is finished and we get over the shock of purchasing something so huge it will start to feel more like our home.
It is still under construction but it is actually farther along than the picture shows. The landscaping is going in now and looks very nice. It should be finished in the next week or two, if the rain is not too bad. The house is also pretty big; four bedrooms and an office, so it should be really nice to move in. Plenty of room for us to stretch out after moving from the two bedroom townhouse!
