ALOOOOHA!

Okay, I'm finally updating my blog and how better to start it off than with pictures of us in Hawaii.

"I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I beheld that I was naked, and I hid myself." Moses 4:16. 

This is where we stayed. (Thanks James and Carol) It seriously felt like we were in the Garden of Eden.

Kendall stopped to pose for the paparazzi. What a hottie!

I often wondered if I was on BJ and Kendall's honeymoon!

BJ occasionally let Kendall hang out with me.

We are officially Home Owners!!!

Nothing like tacking on additional debt to the student loans...but it feels Oohh so good to have something to show for it. Like always; I have to name it. I was thinking "The PlayGrose Mansion". Looks like I'm gonna need a lawn mower.

Backyard BBQs

I fell in love with the cozy back porch with double access from the kitchen and family room. Throw the ribs on the barbie!

Side profile

We are deep in a subdivision on a corner so this is the view from the side street. I was glad to see they already had the HD dish network satellite.

Bay window

Just another angle of the back of the house.

Fence the kids in

Plenty of room for the kids to graze in the back yard.

Kitchen

Not a huge fan of white kitchens, but hey it's new right? Now cook my dinner Kelley...stat!

Room for family

The stockings will be hung by the chimney with care...and because we're so broke they will remain bare. This is the family room in the back. It is approx 20x19...perfect for super bowl parties. BJ and Candi will have to fly up to keep the tradition going. Go Bears, I mean Dolphins, I mean Chiefs, Oh wait now I'm a Lions fan.

1/2 Bath

1/2 bath on main level. Hopefully it is close enough to the family room we (meaning the twins) won't have any more accidents.

First Day of School!!!

The girls favorite part about the first day of school is THE CLOTHES!! (Minny Moms) They thought they were sooo hot! They dress to impress their boyfriends (Xander and Ashton). They blush everytime you mention their names. They are way to young for boys dangit.
