Our Twilight Home

(For some weird reason I can't seem to edit the other post, so please forgive the errors (especially my English teaching/loving friends) and we'll just move right along...)

Welcome to our home on the ever romantic....Twilight Drive! Who hasn't wanted to live on a street sharing the same name as the hottest teen sensation book series/movies? Well, we never did but we love it all the same!

So to continue with our tour (see previous post for other pics) - the rest of the house:

Here is the downstairs "spare 'oom"/study/library/music room. (This will be where you stay when you come visit!)


I know, I wish it was ours, but we are actually just piano sitting for some friends. What a blessing though because I'm now the ward choir pianist and practice like a madwoman every day trying to regain my much neglected skill. The cutest thing is, JD has been as well - I bought him some simplified music and he's been so diligent! He comes home, says hello, eats, and then goes down to practice! Someone called me once and after a minute asked, "Are you teaching piano lessons?"

Next, our deck. Do you LOVE the field? There are pipes or something underground so they can't build. Yippee! Our little guy will have lots of room to run around and play (or chase bazillion rabbits and birds we have here)!






Last but not least, the baby room! (If you see something you gave us, THANK YOU - we LOVE it!) This is hopefully a 'before' picture. I have plans for the walls, but we'll see how it goes...



Gotta love that rocker! Perfect for a baby room!



For the first few months, Little Man will sleep in our room in this beautiful cradle JD's dad and brother built. Until then, it's very content to stay behind the door next to the spare matress.






That's all from Twilight Drive! So there you have it, our home in a nutshell. Feel free to come anytime and stay awhile!
