She LOOKS like she's gagging, but she was saying "MmmMMM!" the entire time.

That's my little cheese monger!
If I had to choose a profession outside the home, one of my first choices would be a cheese monger. Those lucky people get to eat cheese all day and get PAID for it. I guess Eva must take after me in that area, because Jared offered her a cube of mozzarella today, which she promptly put back in the drawer and brought out my holy don't-even-THINK-about-touching-this-stuff parmigiano reggiano. Since I wasn't around, he gave her the whole hunk and she was in HEAVEN. Jared thinks 98% of cheeses are too strong, so I'm excited to have a buddy to share good cheese with! Eat up kid!

The House
ALLLLright....
I have to admit something. I'm really truly embarrassed to show pictures of this house. Don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic to have it, but quite frankly, it needs a LOT of work. I'm just worried no one will come and visit if they see the before pictures! It's a plain old 3 bed 2 bath ranch style house about a mile and a half from where we currently are. My favorite part of the house is that it's on a 1/4 acre, which probably doesn't seem that big, but it's huge for this area. We hope to take care of the kitchen, hardwood flooring and main bath prior to moving in (in May), along with a slew of smaller fix-ups, but the rest of it will have to slowly be done over the next year (or two). Anyway, here it is! I'll post more pictures as projects get completed.
I insisted on a picture in front of the house, even if it is cheesy. I mean you only buy your first house once right? I hope to get that brick arch thing taken out.....
Here's the kitchen upon moving in:
And here's the kitchen 3 hours later....

Here's Eva telling us all about what the backyard needs. :)

And finally...a picture for my dad. He wanted to see a picture of our oranges! There are two orange trees and a lemon tree in the front yard that have been sorely neglected, but produced some of the best tasting oranges I've ever had.
