Nebraska House 2: Entryway, Kitchen, Dining Room

Several of you have asked for pictures of the new house....we are so slow getting things somewhat situated the way we like...here are a few more pictures...

Family picture wall in entryway---it will be getting bigger, YAY!

Entryway

Housewarming gift from my WONDERFULLY talented mom!

Half bath off entryway

Kitchen and dining---no high chair for now!!!

Ignore the handprints on the appliances, I can only handle cleaning them once a week!

Our view----why YES that is a corn field, we are SOOOOOOO in Cornhusker land!



New Years 2014

Matthew worked New Years Day this year so we did not do much---except eat....OF COURSE!
Here's looking forward to 2014....I am full of hope, joy and excitement for 2014.  I have confidence that our God will always equip us and God is always Good.  I am so thankful for my precious family and I am so thankful that God permeates his presence in the lives of my little ones because I fail so much as a mother.  He is strong when I am weak!!  Happy Belated 2014 to all!


Matthew and his mini-matthew....quite the handsome pair if I dont say so myself :)
They tried to play in the snow that day but it lasted all of 20 minutes...it was COLD!


Addison knew better than to ask to play in the snow---she never lasts more than 5 minutes. She may have born in the cold temps but our Southern Heritage must be in our genes somewhere

Traditional New Years dinner---Ham, greens, black eyed peas and corn!

The greens were SO good.  I do not usually like them but I think the apple cider vinegar in there was key

A girl after my own heart---loves corn bread...GRAMMY, this is your recipe!


Be still my heart!

The girls....maybe three girls in this picture including Rhema, who knows!

She wanted a big hug she said!

Trying the greens without hesitation!

HE LOVED THEM!
