Housewarming Party with Family & Friends

On August 6th, we had a housewarming party and invited many of our friends and family over to see our new house. Here are some photos from the evening. I think everyone had a great time. I know that Anson and I enjoyed seeing everyone! The night flew by, though, and we wished we would've had more time with everyone.

Lacy and Alyssa (Jen & Ken's new baby girl)

Chef Anson - everyone loved his chicken and burgers!

And Dillon spikes the ball!

Baby Alyssa - look at all that hair!

Jen and Alyssa!

Pickle - hard to tell but the mosquitoes ate him alive that night. He had bites all over his face and neck - where I couldn't put bug spray!

Chris and Kim with Lacy. We were so glad they were able to come up and see us. They spent the night and good part of Sunday with us.

Luke holding Lacy. He'll be a wonderful big brother someday!

Photos of our New, Beautiful Home!

We have settled into our new home, and we are completely unpacked and set up. It feels great and we love it! We are very blessed, and we are proud of ourselves for the hard work that has brought us to this point in our lives. Here are a bunch of photos of our new home.

The kids' bathroom

Each of the kids has their own towel. Dillon is the monkey, Lacy is the duckie, and Lily is the froggie.

Dining room turned into a misc room. We plan to put a couch and TV in here when the kids get older. It's a nice empty room now, though.

Lily's First Visit to the Dentist!

She did an amazing job! No crying, no cavatities - she wasn't even scared. I was so proud of her! Last time I went to the dentist back in March I took her with me. I think that helped for her to see me in the chair getting my teeth cleaned. Here are a few pics from the visit. :)
