Our New House

The title today pretty much takes care of the intro...so here it is - our new house!

First Days in Turkey
The front of the house. Complete with sunshiney day. :)

The back patio.

The humongous banana tree.

The backyard. See Chloe checking it out in the corner?

Come on in! Like my new wreath? The Community Center had a Wine, Cheese, and Wreath Making night this past Saturday. It was fun!

The kitchen.

First Days in Turkey - Dining Room
The dining room. We built a new dining room table before we left Utah, and I refinished the hutch and buffet. (I know, finally!) I sure hope it all fits in there.  All the furniture we have in here now is loaner stuff.

The living room and a goofy Brennan playing PBS Kids. Poor kid - it's been raining,  he's not in preschool, we don't have a tv at the moment and most of his stuff and our art stuff isn't here.  To combat boredom, his normal hour of computer time a day has been expanded a little. We still get our daily dose of Curious George though. Thank goodness for streaming Netflix!

...and that's all I have for now. We also have three bedrooms upstairs, 2 1/2 baths, lots of closets and storage spaces, and a laundry room. When we get all our things here, and I get everything all snazzy I will give you a full tour.

Though that will probably not be until sometime around Valentine's Day. In the meantime, I'm sure it will continue to be interesting. Without all of our stuff here, we're learning to do a lot of improvising.

How about a pot of brownies? We have no mixing bowls in the house, so a pot worked in a pinch!

They were still yummy, of course. :)
