As usually happens, things have started to fall into place. Scott and I were thrilled to get our first choice of apartments! And get this! We will be living in an old school!! Yup. Fiona and Ethan will be homeschooled...in a school!!! Lots of cool amenities come with the place...but what I am most excited about are the ten foot high windows. So much natural light!!! Another plus is that the entire building was redone in 2015, which means new appliances, no "double-hung" windows flicking lead paint everywhere, insulated in the winter, central air in the summer, and no funky old house issues to deal with. And the BEST, BEST part... we can get a DOG!!! (Once we are all settled into our new digs.) As a welcome break from the moving mindset we enjoyed beautiful weather in Plymouth for the 8th annual "Bounce House Day"! This year we selected a large water slide! I think it was the best year ever! The day was warm and sunny and we were all able to just relish in the happiness of our kids, and toast to our health.
This is a view of the playground and dog park that goes with the school. |
There are also garden plots available... |
This is a wall of the master bedroom! |
They turned the principals office into a guest suite that we can reserve for friends and family. |

The kids created these dioramas using the miniature creatures from the "treasure" box at the dentist! |
I'm sure you can guess whose is whose. |
Ethan and I took Chester home again...he's so easy to love. |

"After" (I'm re-doing all the dining room chairs. From boring to "color-blast") |
