New house firsts...

Will made me finally try out my new tub.  I always wanted to but was too tired to wait for it to fill up.  One evening while I was out running errands, he filled the tub up and lit the bathroom with candles so it was all ready for me to soak when I got home.  It was a dream!  I sure love this bathroom...and my husband.


Once I had my first bath in the big tub all the other kids wanted a turn too...I said no, except to Colter.  That kid gets everything...



This is supposed to be a video of the kids first trip down the stairs in a laundry basket...but it wont load properly.  Just so you know, they wore bike helmets...well, some of them did.  No one was injured...give us time.

Our first holiday in the new house was Thanksgiving...which we spent at Dave and Angela's house because...who am I kidding?  I wasn't ready to host a meal of that caliber a few weeks after moving.  


We did have leftovers in our new house...and that was awesome.

Adell got to be the first kid to have a proper birthday in the new house.  Cake, candles, presents....it all happened.




To the delight of most, the tradition of decorating the "birthday chair" with fabric scraps came back at our new house.  A year or more ago, I got rid of our two living room chairs and the "birthday chair" tradition struggled to survive as a "birthday couch".  At the new house, we have two lovely armchairs and the children are delighted to decorate them for birthdays again.  Yay?!
