Are we really going to live in this FANTASTIC house??

Kim and Coop took us to our new house to show us around. And what a house. Built by Doug and the family it is truly amazing. Photos just don't do it justice.

Kim and Coop set off tomorrow on a 14 hour trip to Kansas to visit Kim's mum for Christmas and here they are making sure we are comfortable, showing us how everything works, giving us "cell" numbers of everyone who can help us! Whew!!

The house is just so warm, beautifully decorated with gorgeous antiques, lovely furniture and so, so comfortable, we are really lucky to have this experience.



There is this amazing stream that flows in front of the house with ducks swimming. Apparentely it never freezes over because it is fed from a hot spring. Cool eh!
