House pics

This is our new home. It ain't fancy, but it's home and we love it!

So, no water at all today coming from our home. We have one faucet outside that had a slow trickle coming out of it and so we let it fill up all day and then we bathed in it. It was cold, but Annie still had fun in it!


I must say, I love my kitchen. It is quaint. Hopefully one day I will be able to wash dishes with water from the faucet and not out of that blue bowl. ;o) If this had happened to me 5 years ago, I would have freaked out. Now, well... it is inconvenient but I can actually live okay.


Max had a tough time adjusting at first but he has seemed to settle in and is enjoying his new home.  
Annie's room still has some work to do on it, but slowly but surely it will all come together.

This is the other half of Annie's room. She isn't too fond of the concrete floors but she still says it is like a hotel. All I can figure is that the floors remind her of the poolside. :o) There is always a bright side!

My room. Lacks some work as well, but little by little it will get done.

The problem with this house is there are NO closets, no storage of any kind in the entire home. So we made this one and put it in our room. Not to designer friendly, but oh well I have a place to put my clothes.

This is the view from upstairs. There are vaulted ceilings and it is very open.

Our bathroom. Usually that big trashcan will not be there but it is filled with water to flush the potty.

Other half of bathroom. 

This is our storage room/study.

Greg is trying to do some work in all the mess.


These are our stairs going up. They haven't been finished yet and we keep waiting on the man to come and finish them. They are quite dangerous and I hope when we get back from our trip they will be completed. Please pray he will come and finish them, I really don't want to have another accident in our family.

I saw this the other day and just had to take it. This is a typical Mexican minivan. Sometimes you will see a mom holding a baby with a toddler sitting between the mom and dad. It is scary!


I left out pictures of the boys room because they weren't happy with how it looked so it will have to wait. We are doing well and are getting ready for a little travel. We are looking forward to seeing some of our old friends and some other parts of Mexico. Please pray for us as we travel. I won't tell you exactly when we will be leaving but it will be sometime in June. So.... you can just pray all through June! :o) Hope you are all well! Love you! Missy
