We had our first family get-together in our house this weekend. It was Josh's Mom's birthday, so we decided to host the event after only being in our house for 2 weeks! I think it went pretty well and I really enjoyed having a house big enough to fit everyone. I think we ended up with 16 adults, 2 babies, and 2 kids. That's 20 people! We hope to have many more events like this in the future.
We still don't have our new carpet installed upstairs yet (should happen Wed and Thurs), so we're just living downstairs for now. Once our 2nd living room is no longer our bedroom and office, we'll have even more space for guests! My Mom is coming to visit this weekend, so we've got a guest room to get ready too. I wish we were able to spend more time at home, but we have just been so busy. Maybe we'll be able to catch up in a few weeks- HA! For now we're enjoying beautiful sunrises, sunsets, and short walks along country roads.
Here are a couple of pics from our last few weeks.
Titus' spot in the truck on the trip from WA- we're already in TX at this point. Look at how hot and tired he is!

I'm still addicted to your blog even though I pretty much know what your updates will be now:) We had a good time the other night. Will we get to see your mom when she's here?
P.S.- that is some PINK carpet.
Shelly, that's not even the pink room! These pictures are the darker pink/red rooms (living room 1 and kitchen). Haha!
