Busy is the best word that can describe my life. We moved into Luke's aunt and uncle's house about a month ago and we have been going pretty much non-stop ever since. We are taking care of their 5400 square foot house (a Gone With the Wind house) and their 4 acres until their house sells. They have already moved to Arkansas and they think that it might be a year.
So far we have stripped the bird wall paper in the kitchen and painted it. We will move through the house stripping wall paper and painting...the longer we live here...the more wall paper will come down.
Tyson's and Keely's rooms are pretty much done. We are refinishing a old rocking chair for in Keely's room and we are still working on collecting some camping/fishing stuff for Tyson's decor.
We have 3 apple trees and 1 plum tree. The plums are almost ready and the apples are pretty much done. We also have 4 planting boxes and a small garden area that we will plant next Spring if we are still here. Tyson declared, "Mom, we have to plant these gardens!" And, since it was so close to the end of summer when we moved in...we planted lettuce. And we most likely will be able to get some lettuce out of it.
I can tell you that we sure hope that we live here for a while anyway...because I WOULD NOT WANT to move any time soon!!! We are looking forward to getting a giant Christmas tree and for the family days that we get to host if we are still here!
We have 8 bedrooms...so if anyone wants to come and visit you are welcome to come on by!! Just give us a call before hand to make sure the beds are not filled.
Hope to post some pictures soon!
