Home is where your heart is

Well, it's good to be home. This past week has been busy, sometimes hairy, but good. Avery got a simple head cold, but is doing alright with it. She is sleeping a lot, maybe catching up from the past month.

We have wooden floors here, thanks to Eric and help from others. One of the benefits of it, that you may not think of is being able to hear what your 3 yr. old is doing upstairs when he should be sleeping.

I know people love pictures here, so here goes. Remember, the house is new to us, we have come a long ways since we first got the keys and have a long ways to go still. :)

Zachery is happy to have us all home. Thursday was such a beautiful day here, we even roasted marshmallows in the backyard. (I love that we have one!)

It's hard to tell from this photo, but Zach refused to eat a roasted marshmallow from the fire, but, as he sooo wanted the treats, he stuck his marshmallows on a little twig and ate them that way. :)
The house is getting organized, slowly, but surely. My mom is right, with a house you can spend all of your weekends and money on it. :) My mom has been such a big help for us, getting us adjusted here. She painted our table, and it looks great!

What a great post, Renae. First, how nice to see you all at home, together, everyone looking calm and content. Second, how nice to see pictures of your home. I love it all, cheesy as that may be. And third, how nice to see pictures of your mom. I "aaaaahhhhed" over that just like I "ah" over the pictures of your kids. I miss you.

I loved seeing all the pics. I love how you have a picnic table in your backyard and the brick fireplace outside. Very nice and definitely a treat to have the family together!

How fun to see you and your mom both in your pictures and even better, that you are all at home together. I love it. Your house is so cute! I miss you too.

it looks great! The last time I saw your house it was all dusty and empty :) I am so jealous of your fire pit/outdoor stove or whatever it is! How fun.
