The lease has spoken! And it has said we are in the clear. So take that, rental agency. Aaaaahhhhh, it feels good to be right. :)
Thought I'd post some pics of the new house. Of course, it doesn't have any personality yet because WE haven't moved in, but it will.

I like the kitchen colors.

Not sure the pantry is big enough. Haha.

Ryan looking out the window in the girls' room.

This house came on the market when the deal fell through for the people building it. They had good taste on the inside colors, but what I don't understand is this: they chose a cream colored house with WHITE shutters on the outside! That should be illegal, don't ya think? I absolutely can't wait to get my hands on those shutters. I told Ethan this and he mentioned that we would need to buy an expensive, really tall ladder. Here was the rest of our conversation.

Me: I don't think we need a ladder. I'll just lean out the windows and paint the shutters.

Him: (barely concealing laughter) You will NOT lean out the windows. You'll fall.

Me: I will not fall.

Him: You WILL fall.

Me: What makes you think I would fall? I'll keep more than half of my body inside the house!

Him: That doesn't matter. I know you, and I know you'll fall.

Me: (glaring at him)

Him: There are some people who are good at climbing, and you're not one of them.

Me: What the heck! You don't even know how I climb! I don't even know how I climb!

Him: I just know.

And so on. So apparently I can't climb. Nice to know.

Glad to hear the good news about the lease, how'd the rental agency take it? And, I don't think you should lean out the window either, but I'm sure you would make an excellent climber. :)

I'm sooooo happy things worked out with the lease and I can't wait to visit you at your new house!
You have the same stove & microwave that I have. I was afraid I would HATE the the glass cooktop but I don't at all! I am really quite happy with the whole thing!!!
Oh and I think you could climb anything you want but who am I to judge, I'm not allowed to go sledding anymore!
