Snow Day

Just some pictures of our snow day. JJ is finally at the age where he LOVES the snow. My mom had to kind of teach him what it is and the fun things you can do with it.

Sean and Katie. She didn't enjoy it too much she is much happier by the fire.
Jordan at the new playground in our complex

Trying to put his shoes back on so he can keep playing outside. Not sure if you can tell in this picture but his cheeks are so red. You can for sure see it in the next picture.

Looking through the slots at the playground. He is just so cute.

Going down the slide. He loves the slide I just have to remind him and stand near to make sure he sits down first. He got the idea of sitting first but it was just so sweet cause he would sit so far back from the slide then scoot towards the slide. It was just so cute cause it takes him so long to scoot across.

Kaitlyn 3 months

The princess is 3 months! I can't believe how fast she is growing and how different she is then her big brother. Jordan is a great help with Kaitlyn. If she cries then he tries to give her the soother. I have to be careful because sometimes he tries to put the blanket on her but he kinda covers he face with it. We are starting to pull out some of the fun toys like the jolly jumper for her soon!

Our New House!

So the inspection went great! It was way better then we thought. The only thing we really need to do is a new roof but when we first saw the house we knew that. I took a bunch of pictures and measurements while we were their so I can start to purchase stuff and plan for my paint. I have posted some pictures of the house as it currently stands. Sorry they aren't in any kind of order but at the present time when I get a chance to go on the computer I am spending all my time shopping for stuff for the new house.

This is the down stairs rec room

Backyard and shed

Backyard with no fence. We are doing the fence right away.

The floors we plan to put in. The laminate will go through most of the house and the other colours is cork flooring for my kitchen. I'm trying to decide on which colour for my kitchen.

The deck

This is the area we plan to put the guest bedroom. It looks so small because of all of his stuff but when we measured it out it works great.

Nanaimo

Its official we sold our house as of last week. The offer was accepted on Sunday and the subjects were removed on Friday.They are a young couple with a three year old girl and they want another baby. I think they will fit in with the Encore complex very well. We are very sad to leave the encore complex but it will be great to have a house for the kids and a backyard for the dogs to run. On the weekend we went over to the Island with my parents and our Realtor Sandee to look at houses. We found a couple that we liked and on Monday we put an offer in on one on Ryan Road. It is a bit smaller then we were planning on getting at first but the price and neighbourhood is just to good not to get this place. Also saving money on the purchase price will give us a little room to personalize the house to the way we like it. We also have plans to do an expansion once the market is up. We are so excited about the house. We are going back to the house tomorrow to get an inspection on it. If everything goes well we will remove our subjects on Tuesday. While we are at the house tomorrow I will be taking lots of pictures and measurements. I will post the pictures once I get a chance.

Below is the picture of the house as it stands today and above is what we plan to do to the front of the house. I have always wanted a porch and a red front door.
