Zoo Day!

We had a great time at the zoo a couple of weeks ago!

On the train

Watching the penguins dive and swim

Climbing on the "spider's web"

Enjoying the slide in the children's zoo

Learning to empathize with a turtle  :)

Grooming the baby goats . . .

. . . and feeding them


Mama Giraffe with her 6-week-old baby

Climbing on the rhinos (with new furry friends to take home)

Making friends with a fancy peacock!

New House!

Now that we've had a month to settle into our new house . . . here are some pictures!


 The perfect spot to sit and read the mail . . .



 Living room to your right as you walk in

 In the living room, facing the front door

 Dining room, looking out to the back yard

 Kitchen, with two cute models I found

Family room off the kitchen (leads to garage and to sun room, shown below)

We're still on the lookout for furniture for this room, but we think it's going to be a fun spot for entertaining!

For now, it serves an important purpose: home to Luke's 5th baby :)

Our back yard is basically a forest!

Here is one of the friends we've made back there (we've also seen a vole, a chipmunk, and of course lots of squirrels and different kinds of birds).

Sarah and Alex enjoying lunch in the tree house!

Going upstairs to the master bedroom . . . 



 View from the master bath window

Abby's room


 Katie's room (did you guess?)

Alex and Sarah's room

 Kids' bathroom


Basement guest bedroom and Luke's Man Cave. Come stay with us, and you can roll right out of bed and work out on the rowing machine or review radiology cases on the big screen--or do both simultaneously, as Luke does. What a deal!
