Christmas in Florida

We made a surprise visit to Florida, well it was a surprise for the Bassett kids.  Jon was deployed to Kuwait so we decided we needed to be in Florida.  It was a great decision because it was super fun.

This was the surpass that the Bassetts first saw when they came in the door.  The rest of us were hiding and little Tavian was asleep in his carrier on the floor.  They couldn't figure out how he got there until we jumped out and surprised them.  They were so excited and so were we!

We had good little baby sitters the whole time we were there 

Grandpa was very entertaining.

The food  delicious and we gained some pounds over the holiday.

Sorry these are a little blurry

Octavian Ryan Jones

This little squirt came into the world by C section at 4 lbs.  and 16 inches long.  He is little but he is a little fighter and eats like the big boys.

You don't realize how small he is until you see someone by him.  Yes, Grandpa Shaw makes him look small.

This is at a baby shower and this is a little stuffed monkey and he is about the same size!

Sofis loved holding him.

HIs bottle, is as big as his face!  We sure love this little guy.

The Move

 It has been a while but because I want to record what has happened in the last year and remember with pictures the home we loved in Cub River.

It starte in April of 2014 that we decided that we probably would not live in our home in Cub river the rest of our lives.  We put our home up for sale and in what I would call a "Death March Marathon"  we got the house ready and had some giant Hoard Sales.

This was our fruit room, don't ask me how I boxed all of this stuff up, but I did.

The exercise room which used to be Isaac's room.

My sewing room with so much fabric, I'm sure if I died, I would be the winner.

The upstairs hallway.

The guest room.

The office with enough books to start my own library.

More of our office where we spent most of our time.

The pantry.

The laundry room 

The hall way going down stairs.

The grandkid room where there were more toys to put away than you knew what to do with them.

My "WANTED" posters of those I love.

Caitlin's sky room.

another guest room that was known as "Mac's" room

The downstairs bathroom, There were 5 bathrooms in this house and I really don't miss cleaning all of them.

The downstairs family room.

more of the family room

The kitchen that was painted so many times.

But I think I loved the white cabinets the most.

There was tons of storage in this kitchen.

The hang out spot.

Built -ins every where.

These are just a few of the pictures of the inside.

We made lots of changes and loved living in this home.
