Our little house!


This is for those of you that have been asking for pictures of our house. Here it is. Unfortunately that top window is just an attic. Too bad it's not an actual room! It's a cute little two-bedroom house~about 1000 sq. ft. The driveway is long and narrow with a garage at the end. It is quite the job to get the car in and out of it, but we've mastered the technique! Our neigbors are very close (just a narrow driveway between us), but thankfully on the right side we have a church as our neighbor. It is a nice lawn and provides a little more privacy. We're grateful for that as that is the side of the bedrooms. It would be nice if it we could run around in that lawn but it is fenced in. Our yard is very tiny and doesn't provide a lot of space for a curious toddler to explore. That's ok. We're thankful we have a yard at all. We listen for "our" bells at noon, 3 pm, and 6pm. Noon is our favorite one. We get lots of practice counting to 12 and then the bells play three or four hymns. After they are done Stefan yells triumphantly, "NIGHT NIGHT!" We've never mentioned that to him but he has associated the bells to lunch and then naptime!

We are thankful that we are able to rent this house from a couple in our church. They are very gracious landlords, and this house was truly a provision from God.

(Inside pictures coming eventually!)

Glad you posted this. I guess since you've changed up your blog a bit, your posts haven't been showing up in our blog reader. So just today I got the idea to check out your blog to see if something wasn't working quite right, and look at all I've been missing! Cute house. Looking forward to the inside pictures. 1,000 square feet--sounds pretty familiar to us these days. :) Makes family life nice and cozy though, doesn't it?
