Enough Room in the Inn

So I have A LOT of complaints about my house, but I am grateful SMALL is Not one of them. I am so glad that we have such a large home! If our home was any smaller we would not be able to do as much as we do!
When we first moved in (and making the mortgage was hard) we were able to have a renter to bring in extra income- someone else paid $600 of our mortgage, How cool is that? Then we were able to have our missionaries live with us. Since neither of us served a mission this was a great experience for us. Now that we have kids we have PLENTY of room for them to roam and play. They each get their own bedrooms, and their own bathroom! We are able to do lots of playdates and babysitting because there is lots of room for kids to play and plenty of places to take naps.
If someone (like a cousin) needed a place to live(to go to PLU or something), we could clear out our basement and turn it back into an apartment. That's why our house is so versatile!
For our first home it is Perfect- I wonder what our next house will look like?

First Day of School...Already!

It's school time again...they were WAY excited! He woke up at 6 (two hours early)....She has afternoon Pre-school this year so she had to wait even LONGER- So hard to be patient! I am not sure how I feel about their new schedule.... He has school for 2 1/2 hours in the morning and she goes in the afternoon and doesn't get home till after 4, it take up my WHOLE DAY, but I get to spend some One-on-one time with each of them, that is nice! But She is going without a nap...I am not sure how that will work out, but we wanted to try it!
Happy First day of School!
