Home, Sweet Home - Ohio Style

Didn't I just post a picture of a "new house" about five months ago?
Can't believe both our cars fit...Jace's parking skills will be tested DAILY
Well the Team has finally made it to our new home and we couldn't be more happy! Temporary living had its high points - especially getting to spend so much time with my mama - but nothing beats our own bed :) It's been a whirlwind weekend and we're both exhausted but I couldn't leave ya'll hangin' after my last Facebook post. If you couldn't tell I was a little concerned that our household goods (yea, Jeff, HHG = household goods) weren't going to arrive but they did and it's been "go, go, go" since Friday. We're pretty much as settled as we can be after 48 hours and there's quite a bit left to do but the essentials are set. Here's a little picture tour of our new digs...Easton's third home in 13 months (welcome to the military, kiddo).

Looking left from the end of our driveway. Up and over those far condos
is New Germany-Trebein Road for all those familiar with Beavercreek

Looking right from the end of our driveway
That's our "front" door down the stairs to the right. I say "front" because
it's really on the left-side of the house when facing the garage. The split
takes you up to the huge great/living/dining room and down to the basement.
BTW - the dining room set was a great Craigslist find by my mom!!!

This is a reverse shot of the one above. I am now standing in the dining room
looking at the living room. I took the previous picture from the left of the TV

Our current furniture...and why we need to go shopping ASAP

Here's a look at our kitchen. The owners just put in that beautiful
backsplash and quartz countertops

Looking a little to the right now and into our eat-in kitchen dining area.
Through the sliding doors is just a little patio...again, need to shop

Moving downstairs to the man/kid cave! The entrance from the garage is
immediately to my right (not in photo).

The owners are awesome and left us that fabulous entertainment center...
and Easton's loudly claimed his territory!!

We finally hit the commissary today so I was able to cook our first dinner
in our new home!!! I love this little kitchen...

And Easton loves chocolate pudding! ;)
So that's it for now! Back to the grind for both Mommy AND Daddy tomorrow. Yep, Jace FINALLY got everything squared away with his job so we're both back at it!! Hope everyone has a great week and get those grills tuned up for Memorial Day...we'll be looking for a pool because it's freaking HOT here! ;)

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
