New Home Tour--Living Room

Next stop on the home tour is the Living Room. It was nicely staged when we visited.
Here is our version...kids live here! It's cozy, has a fireplace and so much room we don't even know what to do with it all!

New Home Tour--Office and Playroom

Next stop on the New Home Tour--The Office. The previous owners also used this room as an office. It shares a jack and jill bathroom with Big Bro's room, but is not as big. Here is what it looked like when we visited the house:
Here is what it looks like now. There will be lots of updating in the future as we finish unpacking and create a space for Nicholas and I to share.
We were so excited to have a "playroom" space in our new house. Big Bro loved this house when we toured because it had a train table in the playroom!
Here is our playroom:
It is nice to have room to play and create and rearrange!

Dallas Visit

We made a trip to Dallas the first weekend in May. We were excited and surprised that there were still beautiful bluebonnets! Saturday we enjoyed some fun in a park.
Then we had lunch with Grandmom and the aunts and uncles before heading over to Grandmom's house.
And tried to capture some pictures...in the sun!
What a gaggle!
Uncle Nick had fun reading bedtime stories!
Sunday we went to the Dallas Zoo. 
Big Bro loved feeding the giraffes!
There was a special dinosaur exhibit with a dinosaur puppet show. It was pretty amazing!
