The rest of the house.


The front. : )

Cozy front porch.


The garage. We will eventually be able to fit both cars in here, hopefully. 


The side yard. Pretty big. We're thinking some raised beds for gardens and a couple of little fruit trees.
 This is Yakima after all! (That brown grass... we tackled the underground sprinkler system today. Should have it greened up someday... when we're ready to dig it out for gardening.)

Looks like we'll be here for awhile. Here are a few shots of OUR new house. We don't live in the country anymore and will miss strolling through the apple trees, but I'm grateful for neighbors (with kids!), sidewalks, and a grocery store 1/2 mile away! We feel very blessed to have found such a wonderful little spot to settle into.
For our family and friends who can't come visit yet... here are a few pics for now. Still no pictures hung, and I've moved a few things since snapping these. Oddly enough, I still haven't taken a picture of the front and side yards (where we'll plant our garden next spring). Still to come (maybe once we've managed to green up the lawn and get it mowed...)

Living Room. I'm standing with the front door to my immediate left.


Bedroom hallway. To the right as you come in the front door.


View from the front door through dining area to kitchen. (Nowhere to hide the dirty dishes now!)
Kitchen as seen from the family room, or what has become Oskar's play room because we had no other furniture for it. He LOVES it, and so do we actually.

Oskar's play room. Door to backpatio on right, to the left (just past dresser, is the door to garage/laundry room).
The view from the kitchen back through the dining area to the front.

Back patio and yard.
Visitors expected! : )
