New Place


Here are a few shots of our new place.  These are from our first few days here in September, so we either had no furniture or base-issued stuff.


A peek at our living/dining room area from the second-floor hallway.  I love that there are doors to all the rooms.  The back doors open to a small patio; there's a small yard with a swingset.


Our spacious kitchen - spacious for Germany, anyway.  The built-in fridge is very small, so we put a full-size fridge in that back-right corner.


Bathtime!  Our master bath (on the third floor) is a nice size and has a shower stall and this bathtub.  Ben loves to play with the faucet...


...and that spray thing on the wall.  But he definitely does not like the spray thing to rinse his hair of shampoo.  But I do :)


Someone found a reflective surface.  What a handsome fella.


Here's our master bedroom, also on the third floor.  That alcove is great for Ben to play in.  It's not so great for anyone over three feet tall.


Here's our two-story spiral staircase.  It's much more stable than some other staircases we've seen, but the space between the steps scares this momma.  Ben is pretty cautious on them and waits for me to help him climb up and down.


Ben's room.  The wardrobe is on loan from the base.  We have no closets in the house, unless you count the pantry.


Living room with a bunch of base furniture.  I don't know how I would've stayed sane without that laptop.  It kept Ben occupied for hours.


Ben's expression cracks me up.  Mike was getting ready for his first gig with his small group.  Ben seems a bit suspicious of the uniform.

I'm still organizing and getting rid of boxes.  When things are neater, I'll post more photos.
