A nice, balmy, snowless, warm Tennessee winter...

Have you ever seen a pool look so inviting?



This was after an ice storm in January. A couple of the big trees in our backyard fell over from the weight of the ice.
Addison HATED the snow. She was happy to stand back and watch everyone else play in it.


It's actually been a lot of fun having crazy weather. Everything shuts down here for even the smallest amount of snow. Plus, after seeing the crazy weather they're having in Maryland this year, this looks pathetic in comparison.

Here are a few more random pics from the last month or so. The last 3 are of her new favorite hobby, watching Barney. She cries when we shut it off and "Barney" is the first thing she says when she wakes up.

I've been telling people that I'd post some pics of the house for a few months now and somehow I've never gotten around to doing it. So finally (after living here for 4 months), here are some pictures of the inside of the house. Thankfully Cheri (who I understand from the previous post is beautiful, loving, gracious, and an incredible cook) added a post showing the outside of the house of few months ago. I'm only showing pics of the family room and kitchen since those are the only rooms that we've finished.
