We are off to a good start

            We have been in Kansas for about 2 weeks now. We have been in our house for 1 week tomorrow. I must not have had very much stuff because we are pretty close to being all unpacked and put away. I am loving the new house. I have so much more space and storage. I love waking up every morning and opening my curtains to the beauty that surrounds us. We are on my dream property.


In our contract we own 6.5 acres but we have full use of the 70 acres around us. We had the owner take us out on 4 wheelers and show us all his property so we new what was ours to use. It has been so nice not to hear the kids saying "I am board" It was such a nice day out today that all the kids woke up and headed out to fish. (that was weird)   Then to make it more weird. Matt threw the paddle boat in and let them have at it. They never caught any fish but had a blast backing the boat back and forth around the entire pond until all the ice was broke up. They will all be stiff tomorrow.  I think the paddle boat is going to be my new workout...but I am going to wait until the ice melts and temps are a little higher.
