Hyattsville Carnival

Feeling a tad nostalgic as the Hyattsville Days celebration came into town this week. We hit up the rides on Thursday night. Will even got to ride his first ride.

L did most of the little kid rides-

 They got a special treat of cotton candy- Will wasn't so sure about it

 At day care yesterday these cuties were watching a movie (Hannah, Will and Owen)

Mission House!

Here is a picture of the island at the new house- had to get on it to show how big this sucker is...

 On Monday we headed to Rockwall to check out the hood. The neighborhood that we are buying in is within a gated community, with a pool, marina, tennis courts and play grounds. First stop was the beach and marina

 L found a ball on the beach

 This is a  5 min walk from the house

 Off to do more exploring

 We saw tons of houses in the hood and then went back to our favorite to have the kids check it out. Will showed off his dance moves in the upstairs bedroom

 While Grammy was at school the kids had a great time trying on all her shoes :)

 Our new city

 Checking out the plane to head back to MD for the last time to stay in our home- bitter sweet

 We had a late flight and this women entertained the kids with video's of her cat :)

We are under contract on the Rockwall house set to close May 6th. More to come on this!!

Pirates and houses

Our nicest Airbnb guest in the history of doing Airbnb, brought the kids an Eclair from FL. It was very sweet and generous and the kids loved it.

 Last Saturday Laurelea's school had a pirate party fund raiser. We packed all her pirate gear, but managed to pull this outfit together. Pirates totally wore leaderhosen :)

 Before the party L and I went shopping and she picked out these gifts for Neen's birthday celebration in TX.

 On Sunday Chris, Nikki, Cory and I went hunting for houses in Dallas. We hit up tons of open houses and did really like the area of one house that was up in the forest. We had to explore the trails...

 Before heading to TX we put an offer on this house. The owner wanted us to see the house before she would accept the offer. So on Sunday night Cory and I headed to the house to check it out.

 I fell in love and Cory like it too. We wanted to check out the hood the next day and see if the area was a fit for our family

 Sunset from the hood

 This is the marina down the road about a mile
