The Judds new home!

Well, here it is! Our new home. It's been a crazy 1st week but we are getting settled and I am proud to say that most of the boxes are unpacked and we are making good progress towards being settled. From the above picture, we've already done a bit of yardwork - Mark gave the hedges some good haircuts and I cleared out an island and have planted some lantana and a couple rose bushes -already an improvement! The boys rooms are coming along and we will likely start painting Anderson's room in the coming days. We've hit the neighborhood pool everyday and the boys are loving it (as am I!). We simply load up the wagon, including a heavy 2 year old, and walk on over. The boys are LOVING their new playset and I'm working on my ability to let Anderson go outside and play on it by himself. I think I'm there, but it was a stretch for me. We've hit our new YMCA several times as I am sampling the class schedule offerings. The boys already enjoy going to the Y - and now they actually go to separate 'classes' which Anderson is thankful for. We've had our 1st near catastrophe yesterday when we came downstairs with some friends to find our entire kitchen under water. Apparently a hose wasn't on tight enough, and it decided to dump gallons upon gallons of water on my tile floor. I'm grateful that the water didn't get to our hardwood floors or our carpet, and I'm also thankful that the 'incident' happened during the day and not at night when it could have put my whole home under water, also tremendously grateful that we had friends over at the time for the extra help!!! Gotta love these opportunities to grow in patience! I hope to post pictures of INSIDE our home once these are a bit more settled!
