The New House

We have been living in the new house for over month now.   The unpacking process has been slow.  We lived here for the first 3-5 days with only the beds on the floor, a couch, and a TV hung on the wall.  At that point we were just glad to be in our new house.  We even lived here while the painters were still working.  We learned to live around ladders and wet walls.  Slowly boxes began to be unpacked.  It took me a week to find some pots and pans and silverware.   Thankfully, my friend Erin came over and helped me unpack the kitchen.  I was at a loss as to where to put things.  Amazingly, I still have many shelves that are still empty, however, I am sure that they will fill up with junk before too long.  My goal has been to unpack two boxes and to hang one picture each day. There is still a stack of boxes in the garage but not many. I love the new house. It suits our family so much better than the last house. I look around each day and enjoy what I see. 

Here are some of the best parts of the new house:

-Wilson rides his bike everyday around the cul de sac.  He loves the freedom and independence that it provides.  He used to be afraid to ride his bike and wouldn’t even try it. Now all he want to do is ride his bike. We race around the cul de sac with him on his bike and me riding his razor scooter. (I have gotten pretty good. Haha) He even rides it at night…IMG_6605.JPG

-Faith has her own room to play in. She goes in it after school everyday, shuts the door, and plays with her dolls or plays school. It brings me joy to know that she has her own space to be alone and use her imagination. I took a picture of it as it really is – a mess… 

 – The kitchen isn’t cut off from the rest of the house. I LOVE the kitchen. I had the cabinets painted white so that they would be clean and pretty. I can make lunches in the morning, feed the kids and see what is going on all at the same time. Finally!  

 – The bonus room upstairs is nice to have. Tom and I actually had an uninterrupted conversation on the couch downstairs while the kids played upstairs.  That was a first!  The kids can watch Saturday morning cartoons while we sleep in a bit.  It is also a mess, but these messes are upstairs and out of my line of sight. Love it!!

 – And finally, the cul-de-sac is awesome.  The kids can ride and play without fear of being run over by a car.  Faith rode her bike while pulling the other kids behind her in the buggy.  IMG_6633.JPG

The house suits our family so much better than the last house, especially in this phase of life.  I think that our house it is pretty and I enjoy waking up in it each morning.  The kids have room to play both inside and out.  Making this move was difficult and stressful, but totally worth the effort.

    Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I’d figured I’d ask.
    Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring
    a blog article or vice-versa? My website goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I
    believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you are interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent blog by the way!

    Good day! I know this is somewhat off topic but I
    was wondering which blog platform are you using for this
    website? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve
    had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.
    I would be awesome if you could point me
    in the direction of a good platform.

    Gday. I noticed your blog title, “The New House | The Dressler Family” doesn’t really reflect the content of your web page.
    When writing your website title, do you believe it’s most beneficial to write it for Website positioning or for
    your readers? This is one thing I’ve been struggling with simply because I want great rankings but at the same time
    I want the best quality for my visitors.

    Howdy! This blog post couldn’t be written any better! Going through this post reminds me of my previous roommate!

    good read. Thanks for sharing!

    When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each

    Is there any way you can remove people from that service?

    This design is incredible! You most certainly know how to keep a reader entertained.
    Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Great job.

    I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.

    Too cool!

    The PC form should run for about 33 hours while the tablet (of course) may run for only 19+ hours.
    All you’re going to do, if you are lucky enough
    to get near the fly is put holes into your wallboard. This, coupled with the fact that
    they are somehow popular despite this, means that you can be assured that their call centers will
    always be jammed.

    I’m curious which blogging and site-building platform you’re running?
    I’m new to running a blog and have been thinking about using
    the Ning platform. Do you think this is a good platform
    to start with? I would be really grateful if I could ask you some questions through e-mail so I can learn a bit more prior to getting started.

    Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this

    In addition, the blog loads super quick for me
    on Internet explorer. Outstanding Blog!

    Since they might not exactly explain to you down the instant facts simply because in many cases are company secrets
    and techniques, they could a minimum of teach you
    a standard notion about how they will perform
    your current seo. Both the Samsung Galaxy S4 and i – Phone 6 offer onboard memory options starting at 16 GB, but you can insert up to a 64 GB micro – SD card into a Galaxy

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

    I see your title, “The New House | The Dressler Family ” does seem to be spot on with
    what your blog is about but, I prefer to keep my title
    less content descriptive and based more around site branding.

    Would you think this is a good idea or bad idea?

    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
