Exploring the new 'hood

Although this neighborhood is farther away from Tampa and the beaches and the airport than we are used to...living out in the country has it's benefits.  I see lots of bike rides and bonfires in our future!  Here are a few pix of us exploring the bike trails and park in our neighborhood and also a party at a friend's house...notice the cows!

We Moved!



I'm finally getting around to posting about our move.  We have been in a two bedroom townhome for over 7 years and it's crazy to have so much more space in the new house.  The kids have their own rooms, we have our own yard AND a garage!  We feel very, very blessed.



We were able to move everything in just a couple of hours with the help of a few friends from church.  Thanks, guys!  My parents also came for the weekend to help out.  My dad was able to tear up our old flooring in the townhouse to get it ready for the tile guys.  (We plan to rent it out after making a few improvements).  He also did work in the new house fixing toilets and helping Stetson with other repairs.  Very thankful he can do those things for us for free!  :)  Thanks, Dad!


Enzo helping me pack...or unpack?

Bring on the boxes!

These guys are ready for anything


Kealon and Pop Pop are busy ripping up the floors!  


And here are a few pix of the new place after we got everything in.   We still have a ways to go with getting furniture, unpacking a few more boxes and getting everything in place.  We are looking forward to many years here!

The first night we all slept on mattresses in the living room!

And Haidyn also begged to sleep in the washing machine box!

kitchen!  


  I'm continuing to watch Enzo during the week, so he is getting used to the new house, too!

This big space next to the kitchen will be our dining room

Off of the dining room is the master...
Our room is still a work in progress!

Follow Enzo to the bathroom!

LOVING the double sinks!

The kids are loving taking baths in the big tub :)  

Now leaving the master/dining/kitchen areas...
This room will be sort of a kid-space...I think!
And once we get a couch, this will be our TV room!  
Keep going to the front door...
To the right are the office and laundry room.  Down the hall to the left are the kid's rooms and other bathroom.
The office/guestroom still needs some work!
Kid's/guest bathroom
Haidyn's room...right now it's a playroom until we get furniture 

Kealon and his old neighborhood friend who came to help us move in!  Kealon and Haidyn will share Kealon's room for a little while. 



And that's it!  Little by little, we will get furniture and finally get everything where it's supposed to be.  In the meantime, we are excited to be here and are really enjoying the new place.  :)
