Our Mountain Retreat

Soo, we miraculously sold our home in S.F. and the new buyers wanted us out in 2 weeks. Needless to say, the month of August was crazy for us. Aside from transfering schools, packing, unpacking...We frantically searched for a home to rent until we start building in two years. We stumbled across a home up a canyon on 50 acres. Rhett was able to use his magic and get a sweeeet deal...he has a little trade work he gets to do. It is quite the drive to get here, but it is so beautiful and peaceful...especially with the colors that are starting to change. So, here we are, finally feeling settled with school started, most of the boxes unpacked, and the internet working. :)

A picture of the front of our "Mountain Retreat".
This is what we see when we look out our kitchen window in the mornings and evenings. The kids love scaring them away...Rhett gets upset when they do. :)
As you can tell, the boys are in heaven. So much room to roam. They are serioulsy outside for hours riding the four wheeler, "hunting" for animals, playing soccer, capturing bugs, and everything else boys do.

This is a picture of the back of the home. The kids love the hill to run down. We plan on getting a slip-and-slide going here soon. Visitors are always welcome!!
