Our New Home


Front House

Some quick pictures of our new home. Anja put herself in most of the pictures so it is a double treat getting to see her smiling face.

No clever commentary today. I am too tired to think, but wanted to get these up to share with you.

Saturday is our housewarming party which should be loads of fun and provide us with some great photos of the crazy people we call our friends.

It's good to see you finally have some room to dance. I miss seeing you around but I know you guys are busy exploring and learing about your new home. Have the girls picked up an accent yet?

Heya Jill! Yes - dancing room is a good thing! And we also have no lack of outdoor space. Our backyard looks out over a forest path for pedestrian, bicycle, and horse traffic. The other side of that is the cow field for the farm Axel works and his school. We love it! We are *rural*, yet within 40 mintues of London. Ideal in my book.

Becca - aren't those mugs great?!?! A teacher in the BD course gave them to us. I just adore them and they are MADE for the kitchen. We got them before we saw the house too. Destiny I would say.

The washer/dryer mystery. lol. We didn't know exactly what the deal was until we got here. Many people only have washers and hang dry. In the cold and wet they hang inside. Thats what airing cupboards are for. To air the laundry. They still use them to a great extent! Those that do have dryers most often have what we do: a 2-in-1 washer/dryer. It washes and dries in the same place. The driers don't require venting because they are condensation driers and they drain the water out the same pipe. It is slow dry, but faster than on the line. I usually do clothes to barely damp and then hang to finish. I can do bigger loads that way!
