Boiler Up . . .choo choo!


Pics of the "office"


This is the dining room but we do not dine in here. John is kind to share his "office" with my grandmother's dishes and the buffet.

I love antiques!

A sweet friend of mine came over one day and brought me this lamp that had been in her family for years. She gave it to me! I just love it! And I had the perfect place for it too!

Thanks Jennifer . . . .I love it!

Awe . . .cooler weather!

It has been so nice here for the past three days. The highs have been in the 80's and there has been a nice breeze too. We are enjoying our screened in patio very much!

Kristen decided to do her spelling outside today.
We are so happy fall weather is finally here! It sure makes me miss Indiana though!

Our living room





Yummy!

The Smith girls came over and made us dinner last night. It was so yummy!
It was all weight watcher friendly food.
Here is the stuffed rolled up chicken before they baked it. I didn't get a picture of it after it was done. We scarfed it up!
Here they are making apple turnovers . . . . boy were they good!
Thank you Lynette, Chrissie and Cassie for all you do for us. We love having you here living life with us. You guys are such a blessing to many! I love you!

Backyard Fun!

Kristen and Abi had matching skirts and leggings on. Cuties!
Nicholas playing football with some little guys . . . .how sweet are they?
Our back patio . . . we have already put this to good use! We love it!
Daddy and Kristen (I think they were spying on the neighbors! HA)
Those boys love their basketball goal! And how cool that they have their own "court" to play on. God is so kind! I am so happy that they can play basketball again.

Our school room - YAY!


One of my favorite rooms of our house is our school room. It is so nice to have a room just for school, crafts, and projects. The best part . . . . the double doors off the foyer close so no one has to see our mess! YAY! We start school on Monday . . . .how exciting!

Kristen's room . . . . her curtain is polka dots but it is hard to see in this picture. So cute
The boys' room. Their quilt is red, navy, tan and white so I painted the bottom navy and the top tan with a white chair rail. I love the red curtain!

Here's the new place . . . God is so kind!

Weight Watchers Update

Well it's been awhile since I have posted anything about weight watchers on here. We are doing great! We really like the program and we have now been on it for 10 weeks. It's hard to believe it has been 10 weeks already. We find it very easy to follow and we don't feel deprived of anything that we want to eat. That is the best part about WW . . . . you can eat whatever you want, you just have to stay within your points allowance for the day.
As of this morning I have lost 18 pounds! I am not sure John's exact loss but I know it is near 30 pounds. He has really been serious about doing the Wii Fit and it has really helped him. And with this move . . . . we have both worked our tails off! We have a really nice neighborhood to walk in. There is one circle that is 1/2 a mile around and another that is 1 mile. And unlike our last neighborhood . . . . it is all flat, no hills!
