1. The attached garage! We didn't get wet in the rain!
2. The nice sidewalks for walking and hopefully soon for running!
3. First floor master. This took some getting used to, but I am already sleeping better.
4. The big screen that came with the house. It is like having my own theater.
5. All of the nice neighbors. They have all come by and brought us baked goods. The number of kids is overwhelming. The girls have had so much fun playing with others already.
6. The calm. It is quiet, calm, and seems to be a slower pace.
7. The walk in closets. We haven't even set up dressers in the master bedroom yet and it all fits in the closet. The girls use their closets as a reading room.
8. The HUGE patio. We have a corner lot and see a lot of our neighbors out walking and talking. They stop and chat and our patio draws them in. I can't wait for patio furniture!
9. Location Location, Location! We can ride bikes to New Town, we are a few minutes from Old. St. Charles. All highways are close. The girl's school is close. The riverfront and Katy Trail are a hop, skip, and jump away.
10. Recycling bins are larger than the trash bin and we don't have to sort anything!!!! Yeah for recycling!
11. A huge finished basement. With Tornado sirens last weekend the girls didn't even know there was a storm!
12. Bob's new pool table. OK so I am not as excited as Bob, but it will be great for entertaining.
13. Grass and landscaping. I know I will probably like it less in a few months, but right now it is real grass instead of weeds. We didn't have to figure out landscaping either because they had professionals do it with the previous owners. I have always been overwhelmed at what to do with a yard.
14. Friends. So many of our friends and the kid's friends were from the girl's school and now they are close. So close they have already come over once and are coming again this weekend. Birthday parties are much closer now too. We do miss our distance friends though!
15. Windows that open easily with one finger! Even the girls can open them. AND they don't rattle and have to have socks stuck in them to keep them still!! The breeze through the house has been so nice!
