We made it

[franchesca]

All day today as we were packing I finally had one of those moments that I kept reading about from most of you. Where you are doing something and you have a blog moment. A moment of time where you think .. I have to blog this.

The day started well. Breakfast was rejected by number one son but the rest eat well. Number one son however regaled us by singing some old country song about a girl asking a guy if he could support her if she married him and he said no, that he was basically the man of the moment and that he would take care of her until he was out of money and time for her and then he would move on. Needless to say that hubby and I were not amused. When I asked him where he heard that song he said it was from the radio station that the nanny would listen to. Sigh.

Next we stopped at a store to get lunch fixens. As we walked out of the store there was a shiny penny on the ground. Number one son picks it up, he makes a wish. The other two decide they need pennies to make wishes too. We get in the car and I hand them each a penny. For the next 5 minutes they each talk about their pennies.
How much copper do they have in them Mommy?
Oh Look! This one has the year of my birthday!
Why is his shinier than mine?
Mine is 2008!

I love my babies. :)

Well, here it is, the much awaited pictures of our new home. We live off the top of a very large hill with a road that does this huge long 'S'. One of these days when it is clear enough I will take a picture of Mt Renier which can sorta be seen from front of our home.

IF my memory serves me, those "grapes" are blueberries, but I might be wrong...can't see the rest of the bush, so not sure.
The red berries?
Don't eat them. I can't remember if they are poisonus, but I believe they can make you pretty damn sick.


The house looks great!!!!!

Thanks!

I will take some cuttings to the local nursery and see what they can tell me about the various bits around the house are. :)

We are going to relandscape as much of it as possible. Make terraces, screen print the back porch, hubby wants a pool ... shudder ... it is COLD here!!!
