Where the Heck are we?

Since so many of you have never been out to our home away from home, I am attaching a map of the area so you can see where we live in relation to St. Louis (the red star is us). I am also attaching a picture of the outside of our home. The house pictures were actually taken before we moved in, so we don't still have that playset in the backyard (we have a better one that Grandma Bateman gave the kids as a moving-in-present!), and the backyard is fenced in which you can't really see from the front of the house. But at least this gives you an idea. We LOVE the fact that we have been blessed enough to live in a great neighborhood, even if it is too far away from all our closest friends and family. We live in a cul-de-sac so the kids can go out and play in the front without the fear of all the oncoming traffic, and they love riding their big wheels around with the other neighbor kids. Overall, we are happy to be blessed so much, but we HATE the fact we are so far away.
