Jul. 2, 2007 - Our New Home!
We were able to go into our new "retreat" on Friday to measure the inside. It will take a bit getting used to the smaller space as it is half the size of our current home. I am looking forward to getting rid of our "stuff" that oozes out of our home now! Here are some pictures!
We will be in the middle triplex. This provides us with two parking spaces and two attic areas! In back, there is a large screened in porch that will be a nice area to have meals or playtime.
This is the master bedroom. It is all hardwood floors which will take a bit of getting used to. I am sure we will need to get some throw rugs around to muffle the noise of our two little ones tromping around. The closet is a lot bigger than our one at home so that will be a nice change.
I have always wanted a window that overlooks my backyard... This is a window that overlooks my carport. Oh well...
There is just a sliver of the window to the left that overlooks our backyard!
This is the kids room. Notice the big window that is really low?? Well, we will need to put a window lock on it as I can just see my kids opening it up and walking out on the roof below. Not good!
I am not sure why they put the mirrored doors in the bedrooms but I almost want to take them down and put up curtain type deviders. I can see those being a problem as well as it won't lock like the ones at home. I just don't want them to get broken as we are basically renting the place.
I think the kids will like the upstairs/downstairs of the townhouse but we shall see if it gets old. I am looking forward to the health benifits that stairs provide! Hope you liked your mini tour!

It looks really pretty. So this is where you'll live when you're not with the boys that y'all are houseparents for?
