Our house: The Outside

Finally, as promised, more pictures of our house/neighborhood. I want to show the outside first because it is a big part of the reason that I love our house. The neighborhood and countryside is so beautiful. I didn't think I'd ever want to live in the country but I think I might be converted! Just as long as good shopping is close by :)

  

The "A" is our house...we are in the newest section of the subdivision and the closest to the elementary school (red arrow).

 

A pretty field of flowers on the way to our house. There are lots of open fields along the way, in the spring there was tons of corn growing everywhere.

   

   

Our house from a distance...a couple of streets over. There is lots of construction stuff everywhere...it's only going to get worse too :(

                  

A little closer... we really are the only house in our area for now. There are a total of 6 houses on our side of the street, a group of 3, us, and then 2 more.

                                 

View from the back. Yes, I live in a box. Yes, I swore I would never live in a box. We didn't add the optional $4000 patio and we should have. I hate the way the back looks. It will definitely be something we look into adding later.

                          

The view down one side of the street from our front yard. It will be nice when our sidewalk goes further :)

                  

And right across from us. I LOVE this view :) I will be so sad when houses start going up, but I am definitely enjoying it for now.

                  

And our house...

                  

And I can't go without sharing one of a sunset. They are amazing out here, this was just the other night...
