New House Pictures!

I'm finally unpacked (well except for my half of the office) and able to post pictures!  The move was pretty uneventful but we couldn't have done it without everyone who helped us whether cooking lunch, watching the kids, or actually killing their body to lift everything we are extremely thankful and lucky to have such great people in our lives.  Enjoy the pictures and feel free to visit us!!

As you can see the office part is set-up but not the pile of craft stuff!

Kitchen (and Izzy)
This is the only part of the new house I don't like. Too small!!!
 It took us a few weeks but we're finally settled and learning or rather re-learning our way around Apple Valley.  The kids have adjusted great and love their bigger bedrooms and that they are on the main level.  The carpeting has also allowed for Izzy to become a pro at stairs and they both enjoying going down to their play room.  My commute to work is amazing and so much better.  The mileage is about the same but now on a rainy day or during rush hour a slow down means going about 50-55mph (65-70mph speed zone) instead of the fun 5-10mph I-94 allowed me to experience on an almost daily basis.  We also our liking being closer to Eric's parents whether it be to drop the kids off to run errands and do a few things around the house (like we did last night) or having them over for dinner (like we did tonight).  We won't make the commute to Red Wing until this weekend but my mom has been up a few times and it has only taken her 45-50 minutes which is great!

We hope everyone has a great week and safe travels for wherever your Easter celebrations take you!
