Our new place and pictures..

We're finally settled in our new place, and it feels so good to have things somewhat organized and "normal' again. We're still adjusting, but we're thankful for a smooth move.
The house is small, but it's just fine for our small family. It's only a temporary place until our real house is finished.

Here's the prince's big boy room:

His big boy bed, he's transitioning from crib to this soon ;)

Mommy & Daddy's room.

My fridge and the awesome magnets I got from Sandra :) 

Little kitchen cabinet...

The kitchen..I still plan to get curtains hung up on the windows, but haven't gotten it done yet ;)

So, here's our little cozy place for now...I'm still working on the porch, organizing plants, porch chairs, and stuff to put away, so no pictures of our porch yet :)
So for my friends who have been asking for pictures, there you are!
This is where you'll find me from now on :)

Happy first day of September!

It's already September?!?! Wow! Hard to believe...I'm so excited to be starting a new month! As I mentioned before, August was a long month, and I'm looking forward to a new month with a clean and fresh start, and a new house too :)

And the thought that Christmas is fast approaching is just too exciting for words! I love Christmas ...and I get to see my siblings who I haven't seen for a whole year! Wohoo! Only 3 months till I see them again!  Oh Happiness...!


We've got a little prince turning 18 months old here soon too! Hard to believe he's already a year and a half old! Time just zoomed by! He's being his active self, as usual and really cracks me up with his new words. He learns new words every day, and keeps this mommy entertained with his funny sense of humor :)

I'm so thankful for him!

" But, MOM! You mean I'm not supposed to be picking these flowers?!?!"

We started September with such nice weather, so much cooler than the last couple of weeks, so I hope it will stay this way throughout the month!

The guava tree pictured above and below has just caught my attention. Every time I walk past it I just drink in the beauty. All the leaves had fallen and new ones are growing back on, and it's just beautiful. Every time I look at this tree I am reminded of the mercy and goodness of the Lord!

" Weeping may endure for a night, but JOY cometh in the morning." Psalm 30:5

"It is of the Lord's mercies that me are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning, Great is thy faithfulness." Lamentations 3:22-23

Happy September!

Changes

Our family has been experiencing some changes lately...good changes, that is!
We're finally moving out to the country side where we're building our new home. Our home isn't finished yet, but we hope that living close by, we'll be able to work on it more often and get it done sooner.

So my days have been filled with cleaning, packing, moving stuff...we're partly moved already, but still have most of the things to move on Wednesday or Thursday, depending on the day hubby can get off work.

I'm not very good with change...and I've been a little emotional and weepy, but I know we're going to have a wonderful time there, and it will be the best for our family!

Here's what it looks like around our new place...

This beautiful tree can be seen from my front porch.

The view from the kitchen door...

The view of the side of the house, and my clothesline :)

It's beautiful... but very different from what we're used to, so it's going to take some adjusting to go from city life to country life, but we're excited as we start this new chapter in our lives.


As for the prince, he's loving the new adventure! He has a "pool" and he loves being able to play in the water freely! Mommy even joins him in the endeavor to cool off.
I think he's going to like being a country boy!

So join us as we start a new chapter of our lives...I might have to change my blog name to something "countrified" :) What do you think?!?!?!
