There's No Place Like Home Link Up!

Our Home


Today's link up hosts are Hello. Also, I love you and Our Reflection. 


We've lived here for over 10 years. It's the first place we lived as a married couple.
It's where our children have been raised and is overflowing with laughter and joy.


It's much more than just a structure. If only these walls could talk, what would they say?


In this house lives a family strong in faith.
There is no screaming, unless your being tickled.
There are no secrets, except if you're planning a surprise.
There are lots of smiles and giggles, but the most important, prayer. 

We have our moments, our temper-tantrums, even tears.
There are three girls, a boy, a cat, and a fish all living within our 800 square foot apartment. These are close quarters.
But you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way.
I absolutely love our home. It's perfect for "us". 

I hope you enjoy the tour. Yes its always this clean. 
I give all the credit to my amazing husband. 
Don't get mad ladies but he won't let me lift a finger. Seriously. 
He would rather me be spending quality after-work time with our girls.


Let's begin....


Welcome!

Our living room. My favorite room of the house where most of the family time happens. 

Our piano. Found it for free in the newspaper a few years ago. 1947 Wurlitzer.

My favorite instrument of all time. Our youngest daughter is taking lessons.

Our counter stools and another shot of the piano {sorry couldn't help myself}.

Our piano bench. It holds all our bibles, daily devotionals, and current readings. 

Our hallway. We have a dream of lining it from floor to ceiling with framed pictures.

We call this our Mackinac table. The framed Somewhere In Time move poster hangs above the table that holds all the momento's from our honeymoon on Mackinac Island, MI.

Our kitchen. It's where I spend the most of my time.

Ok fine! I couldn't say that with a straight face. 

In all honesty, I love to cook, especially bake. But with our crazy schedules,

and an amazing mother-in-law, not a lot goes on in here besides coffee and pop-tarts.

My nightstand and a peek inside the girls room.

They were watching a movie in their awesome bean-bags so I couldn't interrupt for photos. 

Our room. Yes that's a pink teddy bear on my bed.

The most important part of the entire house, our bikes.

We are an avid mountain biking family and these go with us where ever we do.

Our look out on bedroom patio. I love our view.  

Our office {aka my blogging area}. Yes, I spend way to much time here.

Tennis anyone? Besides softball, this was my sport in high-school.

With a tennis court in our backyard, I really want to start playing again.

Our backyard. Lot of fun times back here.

Well I hope you enjoyed a glimpse of inside my life.

I just can't wait to see yours!
