Welcome to Our Home

We've been in Albert City close to 3.5 months.  I guess it's about time we gave you all the tour.
This is the house.  Look, it has a garage!!
 This is the church.
Check it out.  Tyler's name made it on the board!
This is the back side of the house. I don't know if you can tell it from this point of view, but our yard is HUGE! You could easily fit another house beside us, between our house and the end of the block.
And here is the door to Tyler's office.  The sidewalk in the previous picture runs from our backdoor to this sidewalk here.  It makes for a pretty decent commute for Tyler.
When we first moved in, Tyler built us a table/peninsula for extra workspace in the kitchen (with some help from the younger boys).  There wasn't actually a shortage of workspace but there was an abundance of floorspace.  And now Tyler has a nice place to spread out and do his translating work every morning.
This isn't actually in Albert City.  It's actually in Storm Lake.  Storm Lake is about 30 minutes away and is where we do most of our grocery shopping and doctoring/dentistry.  It has a pretty fun playground and biking trail and a decent enough coffee shop that Tyler and I and the little boys like to go to on Tyler's day off.

They were playing in one of the playgrounds in Storm Lake.
One thing we've noticed about being a small town pastor is we never want for produce.  We had a bunch of family in town and sudden a five-gallon bucket of sweet corn appeared for us to share.  Awesomeness!
The rest is unrelated to our tour; I just thought it was cute. Asher and Addilyn were enjoying looking through a new magazine.
Someone decided to join in.
This picture pretty much sums up our kids feelings on being able to play outside so much more. We have four very happy kids!

We have the same purple circle fabric on our couch pillows! What is it that they say about great minds?
