As Promised... Pics of the House

Pics of our new home!

We repainted all the walls in the house, and replaced all the flooring.
Kitchen



The living room, which is a yummy brown mocha color! I LOVE it!


Guest Bathroom

Ella's room (painted the same as her old one!)

Ella didn't have a closet in her old room, so I have been SO excited to hang up her clothes!!


Our room that doesn't have the blinds up or decorated at all yet!

A great big back yard that needs a lot of TLC!!


We have really enjoyed living her already! We love the neighborhood, and feel that this house want meant just for us!! I didn't take any pics of the basement... it is finished with 2 more bedrooms and a bathroom. It has a nice living room and storage room also. We painted it gray, and there is not a lot down there except for Ella's toys, I guess we will grow into it! We are so thankful for so much more room and storage! Ella loves running all over!

Sweet Treats

Ella has my sweet tooth! She has been loving all the summer time sweet treats she has been getting, sometimes twice a day! (bad mommy)
Melted choc. chip cookie smeared all over the face

Ice cream toffee bars! Yummm!


One of the best things about our move is that our friend the Giles live right around the corner! Ella's favorite playmates, Danny and Ryan! Enjoying popsicles!

We're Back!

Wow!! These past few weeks have been crazy. I didn't blog much the weeks before we moved because I was busy packing. Then the week after we got the house was spent totally remodeling it! And this past week has been full of unpacking, so sorry for the absence! We are in LOVE with our new house (pics will be in a separate post)! It is totally repainted inside, new carpet and new tile linoleum in the kitchen and bathrooms, so it smells so nice and new! So much more space for miss Ella and us to enjoy! We would love to have any and all of you over any time!
Our old house sold really quickly, so that has been a blessing!

We packed up our most precious possession!!


Shopping for blinds @ Lowes w/ Daddy on his lunch break! Precious!

Ella loved having ladders around while we were painting! We found her most of the way up by herself! yikes!

Bittersweet Goodbye

Kelsey and I are moving out of our first house this weekend! We have LOVED this place! It is so cozy and so special to us! We are SO excited about more space, but we will cherish our memories of this house!

The backyard, which Kelsey worked so hard @ getting looking perfect!

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to Ella's amazing daddy! And to our super awesome dads as well!
I totally stole this idea off of PamperingBeki's blog, and this was one of Kelsey's father's day gifts!




This is Ella last father's day @ 3 months old

Ella loves her daddy SO much!! She is such a daddy's girl.. and waits for him to come home from work every day and greets him with a huge smile, and kiss!!
He is AMAZING with her! So loving, attentive and entertains her so well. She definitely has his sense of adventure and is pretty fearless! Her smile and beautiful brown eyes melt my heart, just like her daddy's!!
This pic pretty much sums it up. She looks up to her daddy=)

Water Baby

More pics of my cute baby in her swimsuit!
Yes, I know my husband is incredibly hot!!

Lovin the Lake

Fearless


Swing!!

Summer Time

Now that it has finally warmed up enough, we have headed out with Ella to do warm weather stuff! Most of it is still a little too big for her, but she loves it anyway! And I love seeing her in her little swimsuit!!
We went to the Hesston water park, it is super fun!
Check out my cute suit from Aunt Christy!!


A little unsure... I'm so glad daddy is here to hold my hand!

On my own


One evening after Kels got home from work, we headed to the Newton Pool

It was pretty cold!

Loved the slide! You have to click this picture bigger to see the huge smile on her face!
