Welcome to our new home!
(this picture was taken before we moved in)
(this is what it looks like now ... our first snow!)
Many of you have been asking to see the new house, and I kept promising I would post some pictures. With all of our snow days, I had time to get the house in order and take some good pictures.
We have spent the past two months getting settled and accustomed to our new area. The weather has been cold ... especially since we have spent the past 7 years in Florida and Arizona. Snow is quite the change for us.
The girls have really enjoyed the snow and have played very well together since moving here. With all the snow days off from school, the girls have yet to make any friends in the area, but have adjusted to their new school pretty well. Reagan is already getting herself involved in the music programs and is trying out for a lead part in an upcoming play. Riley seems to like her new class, but doesn't offer much information when it comes to liking school. She always has been that way and I wouldn't expect much more out of her.
Scott is working hard at his new job. He commutes about an hour each way, but has joined a "vanpool" and doesn't have to drive, so the commute hasn't really bothered him much. His job is fast paced and keeps him really busy ... so he is enjoying that!
I have kept myself busy keeping up with the house and the girls. I feel I have learned my way around the area pretty well, and I am learning the traffic patterns, and know when to go out and when not to. Traffic here is CRAZY and I don't like to get caught in it, so I do my errands first thing in the morning and get back home by lunch, so I am sure to be home in time to pick up the girls from school.
We are looking forward to the weather warming up so we can get out and enjoy this city.
Enjoy the pictures of the house. We are still working on decorating some and the basement/playroom is a work in progress. It is nice to have the basement for all the girls stuff, so I don' have to see it much ... but when they get to playing ...WHOA, the basement is a wreck! But again, it is nice that it is in the basement, so I just shut the door and don't go down there!!!!
