Our Flight & My First Glimpse

... And we're off!
Daddy and Abi on the plane

I had to buy a Seattle sweatshirt for myself and purchase socks for Abigail's legs. The airport was so cold.
Our little area under the payphones.
Eric and Abigail watching Finding Nemo. Abigail is trying to catch the fish.
A rainbow in the sky.
The following pictures are all from the plane looking down on the island:




It was a pretty cool first glimpse.

Welcome To Our Home

From the front door: Our living room. Look very careful at the 3 clocks above the desk.

These clocks are our East Coast, West Coast, Okinawa clocks. That way...we always know what time to call.
From the desk: Our entertainment center. To the left is the patio door.
From the patio door: my wall of pictures which is my favorite part of the whole house. I love having them as soon as you walk in the front door.
The patio door and patio. It looks kind of ghetto right now, however, we are working on it.
The shed Eric and I put together. The instructions read, "be patient and remember, Rome wasn't built in a day". YEAH! I think it took us just about as long as it took the Romans to build Rome.
The mat I just bought for the patio. I thought it was cute, so I took a picture of it. So there!
The dinning room
The left side of the dinning room looking into the kitchen.
The right side of the dinning room. As if it's so big I needed to take three pictures, right!
From the dinning room: Looking into the kitchen.
The kitchen.
The kitchen. For those of you who know how long I've waited for something else to wash the dishes beside myself...direct your attention to the dishwasher I hardly ever use because I'm so used to washing the dishes myself. Damn it!
From the front of the kitchen (in front of the dishwasher): The laundry facilities.
And Presto! A washer and dryer hidden away behind a cutsie multistriped curtain. I know...Martha Stewart would be proud!

The Bathroom

From the door: The bathroom

Hey! I thought I made our bed for this picture. Abigail must have messed it."ABI!!!" HA!
The hallway leading to our bedroom. Yes, we have a hallway. For those of you who have seen some of the places we've lived...a hallway is pretty fancy!

Our Bedroom: The closet, hamper and Zoey's bed. She sleeps right next to me.
Our bedroom: From the bedroom door.

You guessed it! This is Abigail's door sign. Her room is currently....

I hope you all enjoyed your tour of the house. I really busted my hump trying to get everything together. I felt it was important to be settled in for Abigail and Zoey. Both have been through alot of changes lately. Now that the house is done, I can focus my time of Abigail. I will post pictures of Abigail's room as soon as it's done.
