Home Sweet Home

Here are the first of the promised pictures of our little home.  We're still working on it, but things are beginning to take shape.  My first focus was on the kitchen.  I wanted kind of a chili pepper theme and chose red to dominate.  We still need to paint trim, but have had wonderful luck locating red dishes, pots and pans and appliances.  I'm tickled with the result so far. 

Rob has been working on the front yard and the grass is greening up.  It's so nice to sit out there.  We found some good furniture and we've planted a couple of tomatoes and some flowering plants.  It's really beginning to feel like home.

Andrea loves her new home.  She has a neat yard to play in and a room that we are going to decorate to her specifications.  She's picked out colors and has seen a bedspread combination that she likes.  We hope to get a computer up and running for her in there as well, though not online just yet.  That will need to be supervised.

Next I'll take pictures of the living room and office.  The bathroom is in blue and white.  Living room furniture blue.  Rob loves eagles and we have an eagle corner and the rest of the room is slowly coming around to my way of thinking.  The office area is a total mess!  We spent a couple of weeks just rrying to get all the computers online.  When I have more than a day off at a time, I want to tackle that area. 

I love our new home!  Yes, we pay rent on it, but having lived as a missionary for so many years, it's nice to have something we can call "ours"  We are so comfortable even though there is still a lot of work to do.  I think God chose this little haven just for us. 

After all, we are His kids.
