The Last Of The Inside Photo’s

I was going to go back outside today to show you the rest of our property. Then I remembered I hadn’t shown you the other set of stairs! As I mentioned in an earlier post, we have two sets of stairs to the second floor; one set goes straight to the master bedroom and the [...]

I Live In A Wonderland

I woke up in a wonder-land again. I love it here. There was a heavy mist laying over all the fields again this morning. As soon as I find my camera, I’m going to get a picture of these gorgeous mornings to share with all of you.
What really made me giggle though, was my cat [...]

They Grow Them Big Around Here!

I’ve noticed that the critters of the insect variety seem to grow bigger here than where we lived before. First that spider from yesterday. Today we hav ethree of the biggest mosquito hawks I’ve ever seen flying around the house. I’m ok with them, they’re going to eat up the nasty little critters that are [...]

An Unexpected Visitor

There are two things in this world that will make me scream like a girl. One is heights. The other is spiders. So, you can imagine how pleased I was when my son showed me this:

It’s a bit hard to see in this picture exactly how huge this spider is. To give you a better [...]

Almost Done

In some ways, we’re almost done. But in other ways, there seems like so much more to do! We spent most of today at the old house still moving out the little things, the things we don’t want anymore, taking some things to the dump, donating others to charity. It seems like such a little [...]

High School Already?

Today I’m taking the kids in to get them registered at their new schools. My son will be attending the local elementary school in grade 4. My daughter is starting high school this year. I can’t believe I have a high school aged child. Seriously. I thought I was still 18!
Ah well. On with what [...]

It Went Really Well!

The new chuch was really quite nice. I was pleasantly surprised, honestly. I don’t know why, but for some reason I didn’t expect to like it quite as much as I did.
Everyone was incredibly friendly. I had people hugging me, which was…different for me. Nice, but not something I’m used to. The kids enjoyed themselves, [...]

The Kitchen Sink

Today the kids and I will be attending a new church! We’ve unfortunately had to leave our old church as it’s just too far to drive, so today we will try out a new one! I’m hoping we enjoy it there, but we’ll have to wait and see, I guess.
Now, it’s time to go inside [...]

A Morning To Remember

I woke up this morning to what was like Heaven here on earth. Sometime through the night or this morning, a heavy mist fell over the area. I sat here at my kitchen table watching the mist hover over the field across the road (it was also over the field behind the house which was [...]

We’re Home!!

Well, yesterday was moving day. I’m so excited! I’m sitting here at my kitchen table in my new home listening to the silence you can only find in the country. I can’t believe how truly at homeĀ I feel. It’s absolutely wonderful!
Now, on with the photo tour.
The Side Yard

This is the field on the side of [...]
