The best things about our new house

I think our favorite thing about our new house is the backyard. The kids spend most of their time playing outside. They jump on the trampoline, play on the jungle gym, ride bikes & scooters, play ball and the list goes on. They used to come in when it got dark but since Grandpa, Uncle Richard and Uncle Roger installed new lighting out there they stay outside until it's time for baths and bed. The other favorite thing about our new house is the friends we have made. The kids play with their cousins (on the Standage side) who live across the street, almost everyday and the boys next door come over several times a week as well. Seth has even joined Boy Scouts with Cole, who lives next door. They are also enjoying the pool. Personally I think the water is still too cold to swim (it was 72º on Saturday) but the kids don't seem to mind. The kids have never been so dirty or so tired as they have been since we've moved here. It's so great! They get to go out and just be kids and we couldn't ask for more than that.
