Getting settled!

We are starting to feel fairly settled her in our new house. Katelyn started school and is really enjoying it! We've got our first play date with one of her new friends (who also happens to have a 2 year old little brother - yay!) on Monday! Here she is all dressed up for her first day of school (a few weeks ago).

We've really been enjoying our new backyard and neighborhood. Although it's a bit hilly to ride a bike on, which really stinks! We've been doing our best to ride in the driveway and take the bikes down to the neighborhood park. 

The Oak trees around here make for some great climbing trees!

We've also been getting out and trying a few new things around town. Levi and I go to the Toddler library program on Tuesdays when Katelyn is in school and they both tried out some gymnastic classes at The Little Gym! We've got another trial class scheduled at a local gymnastic studio for Katelyn as well.

Of course, we have to check out all the local cuisine too...this is just subway, but we have several Chick-fil-A's and McDonald's around that we have been scouting out for the best playground. So far, the kids approve them all!

This is just a quick pic of me enjoying a relaxing cup of coffee on our new couch during nap time one day! Our downstairs is still fairly bare, but we do really like our new couch. We've got lots of fun plans for the living and dining areas, but we've got plenty of time....it's fun to shop around. We do have a dining room table semi-ordered, but it's from a catalog so the store ordered and is going to let us look at it before we buy! It should be in, in another week or two. Yay! Although I'm not sure where to put the kids trampoline once we do get a table.

This picture sure makes the walls look dark, they are brown, but not quite this dark in person. It wouldn't be my top choice in wall color, but will do for now. 

The upstairs is pretty much our hang out spot. All the kids toys, the TV room, their rooms, etc...it's very casual and relaxed. Here is the built in desk we've made into a nice craft area for the kids. 

These pictures are all so dark since I just took them with my phone. Once we get really organized and decorated, maybe I will take some better pictures of the house for those that won't be able to visit soon. 

Here is the upstairs game room/playroom. It's a mess, we've been playing there all morning. :)

I am really enjoying our new kitchen too. We had to get a new fridge, which was an expensive, but fun purchase. We have a gas stove, which has taken some getting used too as well. My favorite part is the butlers pantry/my coffee bar :) 

Horrible picture, but the kids are helping me make pancakes for dinner one night!

We also went to check out the San Antonio Children's Museum one night. The kids had a blast and keep asking to go back, so I guess that's a good sign. I will say, it is much older and run down than the Greenville one, but will work for now. They are building a new one though, so hopefully it will be bigger and nicer, can't wait!  

Overall, we've been doing our best to get to know this town. There is so much more to learn and a lot more people to meet and we can't wait. Although we do miss our Greenville life, I can already tell this is going to be a great place to raise the kids!
