Ode to Our Abode

I love our house. I am so happy to finally be in it. Here are a few pictures of it. I still have a lot of decorating and unpacking to do.

This is the study or office or front room or whatever you want to call it. This is where I picture a piano :)

Kitchen

Shelby and Graci's room

Part of my Christmas village. I still need snow for it. And to locate some people and other houses packed away

Graci, Barbie, Shelby

I dont think this one needs any explanation

Dad coming to the rescue. Ya, we have a lot of mud here. Especially today since it was so warm

Phoebe's pawprint

When we moved here we were down to one kitty. Now we are back up to 3. Here is one of them.

Fabio's New home. We still need to get roxy over here. 

Brian saw Bo and Midnight  (one of tigers babies) together digging for the groundhog or whatever they are

Can you see the two pheasants? Where were they a couple weeks ago?

The Front. They still need to paint the hardyboard and now the timbers look different. They need to be stained too. 

We finally got our fireplaces up and running! We have a gas one upstairs, and a wood stove in the basement. It is so fun to sit and watch it. I have been spending a lot of time doing that this weekend.  The best part about it is our furnace hasn't kicked on once since we started using it. It heats the whole house!
Another favorite of my house, is my central vacuum. It was kind of a last minute decision but I am so happy I have it.  We had our friends Kory and Misty and their little girl Jettlyn over tonight. They just got married and Misty is from Australia and they are having a very hard time with the cold weather. At least today was a beautiful day.
