Our First Home...we bought it!

We have been in our house for about 3 weeks! It is amazing. We have had Lilly's 5th birthday party, it was a Tea Party (with homemade lemonade). Grandma made is extra fun and special with her special Tea Part set. Last weekend we had our first house guests, our good friends from Rexburg came. It was so much fun to see them again.-You guys are welcome any time. (we have a guest room and a toy room) The first dinner in our home was mac n cheese and the first Sunday was Stake Conference. We have great neighbors. Lilly has a friend her same age and now she has an instant BFF. Lilly goes to preschool 4 days. James does a home preschool. The Past two weeks Allen has been working crazy hours. Seriously, one night he didn't come home until 2:30 am then he left again at 7 am. Hopefully they have met the deadline and he will go back to regular hours. Although it is difficult to be alone with the kids, it is good to see him working on things that he is excited about.He is a hard worker, a great dad, and my forever love. All the kids are quiet and I do not know where they are. I just sent Lilly and her friend Aubree to check on Madalyn......They reported back that everything is ok. Maddie and James are playing downstairs in the play room. There is leftover home made play dough on the kitchen table. I will clean that up later. James built a volcano out of play dough and Allen made it erupt int the bathtub with vinegar and baking soda. OKAY, now Maddie has wondered upstairs and is standing on a chair and playing with the play dough. Some of it is slimy, I think she tried to eat some. The highlight of this home is the Master Bathroom with a big tub, separate shower, walk in closet, and a little room for the toilet with a door. I feel so spoiled. We got a great deal on this home, it was a foreclosure. I feel bad for the people who lost the home, but I am so glad for us. This is a blessing beyond what I ever imagined. We were at DI last week and Lilly got a Barbie laptop. She is sitting on the floor sharing the ear buds with her friend. Lilly and Maddie have a pink room, James has a blue room. Well, I think it is time for me to stop blogging. I smell a poopy and I need to find the stinker..
