I know you probably think I've dropped off the earth. And maybe I have. Maybe I'm living in Paradise now. Here are some shots around our new house. I love it early in the morning as the sun is coming up. I love it in the afternoon as the breeze is blowing the scent of the orange and lemon trees through my open doors and windows. I love it in the evening as the light changes and I sip tea in my "tea room" and look out over the San Gabriel Valley.
So, if I don't post often, you may imagine me laying on the grass with my kids and the dog gazing at the clouds and thanking the Lord for our new place.
I just planted herbs in these pots. I want the scent of mint, lavender, thyme, basil to waft through my kitchen and dining room. Mmmmmmm.........
These are the views from the North-East side of our house.
Our backyard:
More pictures to come. Stay tuned.

Wow! A back yard? That is heavenly!
I loved your photos. I have never been in your area (except passing through the airport), and the trees and plants look so... California!
Oh, Daj!!! It's fabulous. I am SOOOOOO happy for you. God is blessing you with much because you have been faithful!!!
I love it....AND am jealous! ;)
Dearest Daja, your new home is just as beautiful as you, your family & your love for the Lord are. May Daddy bless you with many happy days, miraculous joys & memories to last for generations to come.
Look forward to more pictures as you are able to post.
Love-love-love!!!

OH - Your new place is fabulous! I love the wonderfully serene pictures you took, especially of the sun as it is setting/rising over the mountains. Spectacular! What a wonderful view to worship the Lord from.
Your place looks perfect! :)
Daja I'm so happy for you and your family. What a wonderful big backyard. Such a blessing.
So glad you are happy.
And YES. We have missed you. My daughter ask me every other day. Mom has Daja posted anything.
She keeps up with you.

Oh, my goodness!! What a LOVELY place... You don't need the park when your yard looks like that! What a huge blessing. (Any 70's shag carpeting inside???)
I am coming to see it! It is beautiful! I don't words do it justice. The yard is what I love. Of course we haven't seen the inside yet!
Was getting the house a God thing? Or were you looking actively for one like that?

Sorry I missed that. I think I was in another state visiting my in-laws on the 5th day of Christmas! They don't own a computer so, of course, not internet access. I must have skimmed too fast when I got home to catch-up!
Looking forward to hearing more from you soon! I really enjoy your insights.
God bless you, your family and your new home!
