home sweet home

well here i am sitting observing our new home. finally we're almost fully "settled in." meaning that i still have a few loads of laundry, a sink with a few dirty dishes, and a few other things that still need to be done. we no longer look like we are just moving in... we look like messy people. which is rather close to the truth. we will claim that our home looks lived in.

john was so good to me in hanging up all the picture frames and art up a few days ago. now we face the task of filling each of the individual frames. i never realized how difficult it is to pick out x amount of pictures for each frame and then make sure that each picture fits the frame properly. not to mention that all the pictures go together. aaahhhh the joys of moving in.

we find our home both quaint and comical. for example, our cell phone service is very limited, as some may have already figured out. however on the rare occasion that a call makes it through it is a struggle to find the correct placement to receive reception. our current favorite is to lie across the bed with our head shoved up against the wall near the window. we are rather amazed and amused when the occasion call comes through.

all in all we are very blessed with our new home.


love in Christ,
