Our New Cozy Nest

 Most of you already know that we sold this little house of ours about a year ago.  We just out grew it.  Six people in 1400 sq feet was a little cramped.   It's weird but there are days that I really miss it.  There were just so many good memories there. 

I was on a walk one day and saw a house being built about 4 blocks north of where we  lived.  I checked into it and found out  there was a new subdivision going in.   To me it seemed perfect - our kids could go to the same school and it wouldn't  be too much of a change (I don't handle change well - at all).  The park that I love is literally in our back yard (which is good because we hardly have a back yard).    To make a long story short, our home sold 3 weeks after we put up a sign and we started the building process.

So, here is our new (a little bigger) home.  This is the dining room.  

Now we can fit our dining room table, leaf and all.

Here is our kitchen!  I love it, it's not

too big or too small, for us it's perfect.

Then entrance way.  I love the wood work,

but wow is it a pain to keep clean with 4 kids. The 

banister was supposed to be the same color as our 

kitchen cabinets, it's not..

I'm still trying to get them to fix it.

The living room.

Here is my absolute favorite thing about our house.
I love having this pantry.   Sometimes after I go grocery
shopping and  get it nice and organized,
I just stand and look at it. (weird I know).
It's just nice to know that one area in my house
is organized.

So there is my house.  I will take pictures of the front when the front yard is in (hopefully in a couple weeks.)  The backyard will have to wait for next year and another tax return :)   I haven't decorated much, especially in the bedrooms, once I do I will post some pictures.   The basement is unfinished so your not missing much there.  Once it's finished there will be 2 or three bedrooms and a nice big family room.  Oh and there is a cold storage room, I'm excited about that.

Now for some really exciting news...........at least to me.  I'm  posting a tutorial for this quilt over at Moda this Saturday.  I'll also be doing a little giveaway so celebrate the Moda post that took me two years to write so be sure to come visit!
