Home Sweet Home

We're hoooooome!

Lots of parking space in our driveway, and we live in a culdesac, so that's fun too =)



Mommy & Kathy on the landing - downstairs is the basement, laundryroom, bathroom, doors to patio and garage. Upstairs to the left is coat closet, living room with doors to deck, kitchen, dining room. Upstairs to the right is guest bathroom, hall closet, master bed and bath, guest room and Kathy's room




Downstairs in the basement/man cave - with a fireplace! (basement is in the shape of an L, just like the living room/dining room. We're standing in the corner of the L for this pic)




Another view of basement with laundry room (bathroom is to my right, garage behind me - which is huge btw, and has shelving and boards up to hang tools!)

Love the doorway! From kitchen to dining room. Came with curtains and that handsome guy there. Yum.

 So it seems we didn't take any pics of the living room or it's fireplace, but yeah, we have 2 fireplaces. =) Joe found this house and it is INCREDIBILE!!! We've lived here not even 20 days and I am in love and could stay here forever. Too bad that's not gonna happen, but I'm loving it while we're here. We should be getting our shippment of the stuff we had in storage in VA Beach by the 19th of March, and then we'll have everything!! I'll be sure to take and post pics of the finished product once everything is in it's place. Unpacking is going the best it's gone out of all of our moves, so that's good. (With thanks to Joe and Tracy Johnson!! =) Loving having friends close by too. More pics and stories of our time in MD and cross country adventure later. Time for bed! xoxox

Jessie, this one's for YOU!

Alright girl, this is months old but I'm just now getting to it haha.

I took my first trip down to Itaewon without you *tear!* to go get a dress for the MP Ball, which I did and it was fabulous!! But I totally wished you were there with me. Would've been so much better. So, because I was missing you, I photo journaled my way through the day. =)



There I am (see the red "you are here" spot? Ha! Just noticed the arrow inside of that pointing to my reflection. I'm a much deeper photo journalist than I realized....) 6 stops away from where my Jessie used to live. *sigh*...

Something's missing from this picture........Oh yeah, IT'S YOU and your smiling face coming around the corner to meet me. I didn't get a hug right here. Sad. =(

Yeah, you know where I went for lunch! Ali Baba all the way! =) That's your seat. I saved it for you...

Mmmmm falafel sandwich. Y.U.M. I am forever grateful to you for introducing me to such deliciousness.

Aaaaaand of course I had to end my *almost* perfect day at Caffe Bene with a waffle and gelato. Again, you have my heart for bringing me there too. =)

Just want you to know you were one of my favorite parts of Korea. I miss you and love you woman!

7 months!!

There's my growing up girl, with Jeffrey and Pandora. She's eaten (and loved) rice cereal, oatmeal cereal, chicken, turkey, ham, beef and squash!! (Just started on veggies this week =) She's low crawling all over the house, no longer content to stay within the safety of her room. She's also been rocking back and forth on her hands and knees for some time now. The real crawling is about to begin!! And now, Mommy's going to bed early for once. =) xoxox
