settling in

well, it has now been a full month that we've been living in our new home. We are almost completely settled in, my craft area still needs some work and we're still working on some storage solutions, but we're starting to feel at home in our home.  Because the house is really new (like 2 months brand new) there is some settling happening and so yesterday our landlord had a drywaller in to fix some of the cracks that are starting to show in the walls. So now we have white spotted walls and are waiting for the painter to come.

Now that the sun has started to shine more around here, Ronel & I are looking forward to getting out and exploring more of the greater Vancouver area. Sometime this spring/summer we're planning on trips to the Aquarium, Zoo, Science World, Stanley Park,  and somewhere in there we'll plan a trip to Vancouver Island to visit my dad's side of the family.


for those of you who still check in on this blog.... thanks and I'll try to post more often. 

special Sunday

Today was a great day as Ronel & I got the privilege of meeting our newest nephew today! My youngest sister & her husband welcomed their first child into this world this morning..... Ethan David Timothy was born this morning at 5:40am weighing 8lbs even. We headed over to the hospital after church and spent a couple hours cuddling the newest family member. 

Here are his gorgeous little toes!! (I'll ask my sister if I can share a photo of the rest of him soon!)
