Christmas and a 'New' House

Last weekend, we decorated for Christmas! YEA!!! I know it's a little early, but Devin made me wait until November. I wanted to do it in August! :P It looks so nice and homey! :) I didn't get to decorate last year, and if I waited until the day after Thanksgiving...well, I wouldn't be here! So, it's all up! It looks nice! I might put up some pics....



We also made our house 'new'...we switched around most of the rooms. It was FUN!!! We made Josh and Claire move downstairs to the second floor--to a room that has a closet and an air conditioner that doesn't turn off every time the power turns off! YEA!!!! Now I don't have to get up 4 or 5 times a night just to turn their stupid air conditioner back on after a power flux. We moved them into the playroom. We moved the playroom next door to where we had the craft/ironing room. We moved the craft/ironing room to where I had set up the baby's room. We moved the baby's room upstairs to the third floor to be next to our room. The kids were ecstatic, and quite frankly, I really love the new set up, too! :) It's all cozy and perfect now. I love switching rooms and furniture around (especially if I'm not the one moving, but just supervising! Ha! Just kidding...) as it gives such a nice feeling of clean. It's a very peaceful feeling. Maybe that's why I like moving.

Then, it was such a hot day, that we went swimming and the pool was actually WARM! Wow! It must have been a hot day, because that water NEVER warms up. It's usually quite shocking. But it was a fantastic end to a hard working day! :) I think we'll have to do it again this week! :) It's so fun to go swimming, outside, in November!! :)
