Oh Blogland!!!!

I'm so sorry, but it has been getting crazy around here!! Crazy in a good way that is!! We are moving to a new home!!! I don't have long to post (with pics) but I will do my level best to get it done.

DH finally had it with the LL last Friday (Sept. 26th) and started checking out Craig's List on the 27th. On Sunday the 28th, we decided to drive around and see what was out in the country a little bit. As we were getting a move on I asked God to guide our paths to the home that was right for us.

There was NOTHING for rent in our area. Not a single sign! We decided to go over one town and look. We saw two for rent signs, one was not what we really wanted and turned out to be out of our price range. The other claimed three BR but Pa-Lease! They were big enough for a crib....maybe!

Tired, hungry and frustrated we decided to call it a day. DH needed to drop something off at work but "on a whim" ;) turned down a side road. Sure enough there was a for rent sign, but it said two bedrooms, not three. Normally we wouldn't have bothered to call but decided to "on a whim" ;). Turns out that, yes it is a two bedroom, but it also has a big FL room on the back that is just perfect for our bedroom! Not only is it available NOW, but is in our price range and the near perfect setting for us! Thank you God!! We started moving in on Monday and have been busy since!

So here we go, a tour of the BigM Homestead!!!

These are our new digs.... We'll be scrubbing that stain off soon...



And the screen porch area to the left of that....we will go in through here...



This is our neeeiiigggghhhbor's place....




And these are some of our lovely neighbors....












Ok, back to our house.

This is the walk up to the porch area...



We will come in through the laundry room/pantry most of the time....



Which opens to the dining/kitchen. (Those kids came with the house. Sure hope they can cook!)


This is half-ish of the living room. I've got big plans for this space!!



This is most of the kids rooms here. They are actually a bit bigger than they look.







Now we are going to check out my room. There is a bunch of stuff in there to be moved out and it is kinda hard to see the glory of the room in this pic. You can't see it, but down on the other end is my own fireplace!!! How romanticle!!! I have big plans for in here as well...



And last but by far not least is the back yard. I LOVE the back yard!!

Ok, now see that beautiful sunny spot over there? That is where we plan to put our pool.



And this is where I'm thinking of putting a bench to relax on and stare out over OUR CREEK! Tee Hee! It isn't really deep enough for any alligators to enjoy, so I think the dog is safe.




Then again, this spot is really beautiful too. I may have to get another bench and split my time between the two! Decisions, decisions!!!


We also will be moving our chickens with us for those who are wondering. They just started laying eggs and I'd hate to give that up!! Tell me, what do you think??
