The House

As I enter the blog world, I feel like a flower bursting forth out of the ground. "Hello world."
Greetings everyone from the south. We have been here for a little over a month and are learning a ton (both in our jobs and the culture). It's different here. One thing that is great is we can get pretty much anywhere in 15 minutes or less. 15 minutes to the place we work, grocery, shopping, etc. It is so convenient. Here are some pictures of our house we rent. We love it and will be sad when we have to move in August!

This is the front of the house. It is a 3 bedrooom, 2 bath house. We would love visitors if anyone is interested. I tried not to show the yard too much as we battle the leaves. You rake leaves year round down here. We rake and then the wind will blow and leaves will bombard our yard. It truly is a battle.

This is the backyard. We haven't been able to use the deck since it hasn't been warm enough, but I can't wait. There is a table that belongs out there, but I am using it now to put together a puzzle.

It looks like a really nice place! So glad you're enjoying the new area. I have to say that I'm a bit jealous of everything being within 15 min.! Love and miss you Heather!

By the way, "Running with Joy" sounds like an Indian name. It would have been perfect for Tap.
