Our New Home

Welcome to our home. For those of you who are unaware, we are living at Grammy and G-Pa's house temporarily (1+ years) while we save up and build our new house. They were so kind to create a guest suite for us to use during this transition period. This suite is on the second floor located above the garage, master bedroom and kitchen.

This is the dining area. The kids love having their own table to sit at. Breakfast and lunch is eaten here most days. We can look out these windows and see the land where our new house will some day be built.
Here is the kitchenette. (No, I did not take the time to clean up before I took the picture.)Weekday breakfast and lunch meals are prepared here. Dinner and most weekend meals are prepared downstairs in the main kitchen and eaten with Grammy and G-Pa in the dining room downstairs.

This is our office/storage closet. (Yes, our desk is a blanket chest with a closet shoe organizer on top. You know you want one just like it.)

Here is the kid's room. This room was designed to be the living room, so there is no door and its completely open to the dining area. This, plus the fact that this is the first time the kids have shared a room, means getting the kids to sleep can be very difficult at times. Josh regularly uses nap time to perfect his comedy routine. And the kids have lots of fun egging each other on to see who can make the loudest and most annoying sounds (Josie always wins). And Josie being the compassionate older sister will cry when Josh starts crying. In general, the sleeping arrangements are lots of fun for the kids, not so much fun for Mommy. Here is the parent's bedroom/living room combo. It's kinda like staying at a hotel.

And here of course, is the most important room...

We also use Grammy and G-Pa's laundry room, workout area, and garage space.
