Reason for being so busy! we have been house searching for a good while now! And after putting a offer in one house- that was a short sale, got impatient!.. withdrew the offer..continued looking... until we found this! the perfect home! We are less than 1/2 mile for the gulf of mexico, in Ocean Springs, MS. Neighborhood, Gulf Park Estates...
I fell in love with this house before walking into it... and fell even more in love after seeing it in person! I couldnt wait to get Josh in to see it, so we could make a offer!
i love how cottage like it looks, and all the trees!

It's frustrating, because even though i've been to the house a hand full of times, i ALWAYS forget my camera. So im still left with the pictures that were on the real estate website. :( they just dont show everything.. ... BUT.. ill make do with what i have...
This is the kitchen, well a
piece of it. And you can also see straight to the laundry room. and where the breakfast area is.

Another picture that just doesnt do justice! this is PART of the living room.
This is a tiny piece of the master! turns out... the master has a entire wall of windows! Two floor to ceiling, then sliding glass doors that go out into the back patio. It also has a very large master closet. It does need a little work(its a fanny mae) but on small things like updating fixtures.

extra bath room.


This room is
Julians room.
Its such a good size. will easily fit his dresser, full size bed, night stand and train table! And the closets are over sized. they are very deep and long. Not the typical walk in but large enough that they have lighting, so you can see to the far ends.
Spare room
Ill be putting a small bed in here, as well as our computer desk. The closet in this room will be my
scrapbooking 'nook'.

only part of the back yard. we have a large screened in back patio, that the french doors from our
formal dinning open to, as well as the sliding glass doors in our master open up to as well. The far door on the right is the
muddroom/
laundry room.

The other reason for my busy body...
Julian's birthday!
It was a blast, but felt so rushed with everything else going on!

kiddo's bobbing for apples!
juju playing trains, OF course!

Last night as i look for pictures of Julians party.. i felt like the worse mom every! The normal camera happy, mommarottiz i am.. i had a whopping 6 pictures from the entire party/birthday! :( I had to go through all the videos on my video recorder in order to take snap shots of juju close up! so excuse the crappy quality :( my fault.

But thats not the end of it! since then, Julian has had another birthday party, my dad has been diagnosed with cancer and sent home on hospice, my grandfather has been in the hospital with heart trouble etcetcetc. So please understand I have not taken many pictures, nor have I had any time to do anything extra. i will do my best to start taking more pictures and bloggin again! :) thank you all for your prayers, and your patience!
Enjoy XOxo
