Home Sweet Home

Well we are about 95% moved in now so I thought I would take some photos for the blog of the new house. It is still a bit in shambles - so just ignore any messes :) Here are the kids sitting at our kitchen table (the kitchen is to the right of the table but it is not really exciting) We have had to use wireless on the laptops until we can find a cord long enough to snake downstairs from the router upstairs! German houses generally only have one telephone outlet (only DSL here too). Our outlet happens to be on the wrong floor and wrong end of the house from the office!
Here is the room we made our family room with the TV and all. And Jeff said I would never get the couch to fit again!
This is where we hope to get a dining room table some day. This is the Living/dining room. Right next to the corner hutch there is a door that leads out to our balcony.

Here is the other side of the living/dinning room. That is our fireplace there on the left.

A front shot of the fireplace.

There is the Sauna room. That on the left is a tanning bed and you can also see the shower in the room - it is the biggest shower I think. We have not figured out where to put Jeff's recliner yet - so it is in there. You can see out the door to the dinning room.

This is the hallway upstairs - pretend you are standing at the top of the stairs. (that ohio state sweatshirt is on the stair post) Down where Jack is standing is the door to Wolf's room. The stairs up is to the attic - which we don't use - the owners stored stuff in it. The family room is right off the the right. To the left is the hall that leads to the kitchen, master bedroom (which is right across from the kitchen, the living room & Sauna.

Here is a shot of Wolf's messy room.

Another shot of the mess - and Jack :)

This is the hallway that you walk into from the front door (pretend it is right behind you) The stairs up is the stairs you are standing at the top of in the last photo. If you turn to your immediate left the office is there. Olivia's room is to the left of the bunny bench. There is a bathroom to the right of the bunny bench. Sophie's room is down the hall to the right. Why is my buffet in the hall you ask? Because they could not get it up the stairs. As it was they had to lift my TV Cabinet up over the balcony! They probably could have lifted the buffet up over the balcony too but it was in almost the last crate they opened (we had 16 crates) and the movers were pretty tired!

Sophie's Messy room - Gosh Sophie make that bed!! Another shot of Sophie's messy room.

Here is Olivia's Room - She got the biggest room! Another shot of her room!
Here is the messy office/scrap shack. This the the final room that needs organization - as you can probably see. We have ignored it thus far but it will get done soon!
Another messy office shot.
Well there you have it. If the weather is nice tomorrow I will try for some outside shots :)

So happy to see shots of your new home. Glad you are getting settled. Happy Livvy is back riding. When is Sophie going to start? Hope to hear from you soon. I need your address again. Seems it didn't make it to Florida.
Love,
Mom
