Our Home and Neighborhood

Day 14:

I'm so thankful for our beautiful home.  We fell in love with this house immediately and since have just continued to make it feel like home.  It's the perfect size and the layout is exactly what we wanted.  There are a few areas that we hope to upgrade in the (distant) future.  However, it is warm, cozy, and perfect for our family.  We are thankful for a place to live and for the abundance we live in each day.

Our home!  This was a few years ago, we no longer have that car and the trees are even bigger!

Day 15:
Along with that, I am so thankful for our wonderful neighborhood and specifically, our little street.  We have such wonderful neighbors and everyone is so friendly.  We love that there are two parks close by, one being a brand new city park that Anna LOVES!  We also are very thankful to have our neighbors who live diagnally from us who adopted a little boy from Russia shortly before we adopted Anna.  It's nice to have another adoptee so close that Anna enjoys playing with and seeing on walks.  They have recently had another baby boy who is just a few months younger than Anthony.  It is fun that our kids so many little friends to grow up around.  There are kids galore!

That is so neat that your neighbors have also adopted! Having a great home in a great neighborhood is a HUGE blessing! I'm envious of your trees & the shade they must give ... we have no large trees in our yard & there is no shade to be found. :-)
