When we bought our home four years ago it had 2 bedroom and was 956 sq ft. The location was really perfect for us, it is on five acres, and for some reason since we moved to this area, I have loved this little house, I just felt drawn to it. With some help, we were able to convert the carport into a third bedroom, mudroom/pantry, and a very small office area (more like a corner) for my dear husband. Because this space was a carport the ceiling is pretty high. I asked our builder if there was a way to build a small play loft for the kids. Somewhere they could sit comfortably and be cozy. He definitely pulled through! It was my plan to finish the play loft, and four years later I finally have...well, it's finished enough. :)

~Around the House~
For weeks I've been wanting to sit down and write a new post. Ideally I would like to post once a week, maybe I can make it a priority! Here are some pictures from our beautiful, ordinary life. I made a Spring decoration for the front door. I found the flowers at Dollar General, I already had the basket. Actually, Ive had this basket for years, it's flat on the back so hangs nicely on a door or wall.

~ Pancakes and Sickness ~
We're in the Nativity Fast and I thought I would make the kids a treat! I had to stay home from church with Moses because he has a cold. I missed being at church but it was nice to be home too. :) The days have been chilly and for the most part sunny. I love sunny cold days! I have some orange slices in the dehydrator, I want to use them on the tree and other places. It's so lovely to use simple things for decorations.

ZOO Trip!
This was Moses's first time visiting the zoo! When we lived in town years ago we went pretty often. We ended up purchasing the family membership because it was only $15 more than it would cost us to come one time! We're going to make an effort to visit more often. It's such a realxing and easy thing to do togther.
