Virtual Open House -- Spenser's Room

The Boy's Room with a view....

Doesn't usually look this way though....

Who are the real Washingtonians?

I keep hearing people talk about Washington and Washingtonians. I perk up thinking that I will hear something about home, but then I realize they are talking about D.C!

I've been disturbed - they can't be Washingtonians! They do not come from Washington State! They all like to say they are from the "District" anyways....

This disturbed me enough that I went to Merriam- Webster for my answer. Didn't really help, in fact I guess it means we are both right, they just assume since they are so far apart no one would get confused... leave it to me.

Virtual Open House - The Kitchen

Here is the kitchen/Dining Room

If you are looking toward the back door - Spenser room and bathroom, spare room and bathroom are off to the left.

When do we get to go home?

Monday Night Football ----- ahhh whut?

So - I raced home, grabbed some food on the way - and am getting settled in for Monday Night Football. Then I realize - Monday Night Football doesn't start at 6pm, it's starts at 9pm!!! WHAT?
9pm - and its not going to end until Midnight?

Then I realized the baseball playoffs are going to run well into the middle of the night!?!
How will I watch these and get up in the morning?

What a crock!

BUGS EVERYWHERE

Look at this bug on my door today. It looks like a leaf!

A Virtual Open House - Our Family Room

I've been asked for pictures of our house. Obviously since we don't know anyone - we won't be having an open house, so I am going to start posting the pictures here.

We are still quite a ways from being unpacked, but over the next few weeks - maybe I can get pictures of a few things.

Here is the Family Room. It's not quite complete - as we are still trying to find someone willing to come in and wire our TV into the wall (and get rid of the cords). The TV is on an articulating arm so you can turn it and watch it from the kitchen, thus why it sticks out from the wall so far.
