Well, my computer is being crazy, so these five pictures are out of order. After you see them, you'll be able to tell where this post was supposed to start :)
Kitchen
Master bedroom
Dining roomI finally found the charger for my camera... So here are the long awaited pictures of our finished house!
The girls love the table and rocking chairs in our backyard
Here are some pictures of the interior... I would have taken them when the house was empty, but with the charger being lost until yesterday, we'll just have to live with these! Just don't laugh at my attempts to decorate, or at my old furniture. It was either new furniture, or a house... I went for the house!
Family Room/ Great Room
Opposite wall, with plant shelf above the hallway
You can get a better feel for the room in this picture...
Front of the house...
Kitchen with office nook. We have our old desk in there.. It is at the top of the list for replacement! We just haven't found one we like. I can't wait until we do find one so my window isn't blocked! Oh well for now..
More kitchen, you can see the girls table stashed by the door that goes out from the nook. I make them eat in there so they don't get food on our carpet.Check out our DISHWASHER! We are LOVING it. We don't argue about who has to load or unload... I think we are both excited to do it. Wonder how long that will last?
I still can't believe I've lived without one with three kids...
Ben's RoomALL boy, well, all CUBS. It is SO nice to have him in his own room! I don't know how I managed to have all three in one room before...
Hall bath
I love these adult height counters... I forgot to take a picture of the master bath, but I guess I've posted pictures of that before. A bathroom's a bathroom
Maddy and Sarah's room
Sarah's side. I have the girls blessing dresses hung up. Maddy was blessed in the one on the left, and Sarah was blessed in the one on the right. Which also happens to be the one that I was blessed in. I would have had Maddy blessed in it, but it was packed in a storage unit in Albuquerque! Luckily I was able to have it by the time Sarah came along.

Maddy and Sarah's roomMaddy's side... I haven't framed the painting of the hundred acre woods yet, and it is going to go somewhere on that wall.

I had to hang it in the girls room
I'm still in love with their closet doors. They swing all the way open! Plus there is a light, even though it isn't even a walk in closet! Ben's room is the same way. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
We have most of the kids toys stored in the large linen closet in the hall. It works out really well, all the toys are out of sight, out of mind after they go to bed!
We have lived here for just over a month now, and are loving every minute of it! The girls love playing in the yard, and going on walks. (on sidewalks!!) They get so excited when they get to talk to a neighbor! (did I keep them that sheltered?) Closing on the house was drama filled, and we actually moved in 10 days before we closed. We just had some unexpected delays that were no fault of our own, nor the builder... the house was done in time. (too stressful to think about it) Since Joseph has a great relationship with our builder, they allowed us early occupancy (which I was grateful for) but we couldn't get comfortable in our new house until we knew it was "ours" I refused to hang up any pictures until we actually closed... just in case! We are pretty much moved in now, we just have a row of boxes in our garage to deal with. But hey, we have a one car garage, and our van is parked inside, so it can't be too many boxes!!

We get to go visit Andrew and his beautiful family, so hopefully I will have some cute pics to post later...
