Craziness. February. Nesting.

I told someone recently that the month of February has been one of the craziest months we have had yet while working on staff at the Baptist Student Union. This is kind of funny because historically August is the most difficult with all the "coming back to school" activities. August is a cake walk compared to February. I don't know how it happened, it just did. Before February even hit it was totally booked. I mean totally!

I was sick last week. I got a brake. Not the kind I wanted. If you didn't know, being pregnant and getting sick on top of that is just plain horrible! I wanted to die. But not really.

I had free time this last Monday afternoon. Do you want to know what I did with that glorious, "it's been so long it's nice to see you!", "where have you been?" kind of free time????? Huh, huh? Do you want to know?

I cleaned our room.

Is it too early to stat nesting?

Nevertheless, it has begun. I can't clean out enough closets, cabinets and drawers. I am aching to get rid of things. Out with the old and in with the new! New being baby cloths, burp rags and bottles. But hey, I would take that any day!

So now. It is February 29th (By the way, do Doctors factor in leap years when predicting your due date? This question has been driving me nuts!) and March is here like, tomorrow!

Hello March! Goodbye February. I really won't miss you.

March has it's own share of crazy but along with it there are a few free days thrown in there and I am elated! One day is going to be spent with dear friends which I am thrilled about! The other days, well... we will see what my nesting urge brings about. :)

A Tour of our Home...

I know it has been a long time coming but I am finally posting pictures of our new home. We moved in this past November and we are loving every moment of being here. I most definitely feels like home.   

Come on in!....

View walking inside... (Hi Britt!)

Entering the kitchen...

Some of my projects...

I painted this shelf. It was black iron. This doll was my grandma's doll when she was a little girl.

This is a random assortment of frames that I took the glass and backs out of and painted white. The lamp is an old lamp from a garage sale that I bought a new shade for.

This mirror was a goldish bronze color that I painted white.

The hall...

The door to the right is the "third bedroom". We have not done anything to this room yet.

Thanks for "visiting" our home! :) We are so thankful for the Lord's provision through this home and we can't wait to use it to serve Him. Hope you enjoyed "the tour". :)

Britt and I spent part of the day together at Frontier City last weekend. It was beautiful weather and even better company! :) We had a really great time being together, ridding rides and screaming at the top of our lungs (ok, maybe that was just me). :)

Here we are about to ride the "Eruption" for the first time that day. 

That's about what it looked like when we were waaaay up there!

We are on the "Old Time Cars Here. I wasn't watching the road very well... haha

Still not really watching the road....

NOW... I want to show you some sneak peak pictures of our house. The thing is that when I took these it was not "ours" yet. I guess it sill isn't officially ours ever since we are renting but it feels like it's close enough and it sure beats our one bedroom apartment.

Now: Please understand that when I took these pictures the guy that has been living there was still in the process of moving out so there is random stuff in the pictures. Once we actually move in and set things up of course I will post more pictures!

The house!

The living room when you walk in. To the right is the kitchen, straight ahead a bedroom and to the left down the hall 2 more bedrooms and a bathroom. 

The living room looking the other way. I LOVE the floors!

The first half of the kitchen...

The other half of the kitchen.

I don't have pics of the bedrooms yet but once we get things set up I will put them on here. It will probably be a month or so (at least) but, it will happen!

We are sooooo excited about having a house. We really love it and God has provided in SO many ways already!
