Our new home and school

So as promised, here are some pictures of our new home and the Belgian school.  Keep in mind that we are having the house repainted on the inside. Wow,  pretty bad.  You should see the paint job in person!  Painting aside though, we looked at a lot of homes and this one seemed right. Some were bigger, had larger yards, and more scenic views, but they just were not right for us for one reason or another.  We looked at this house early on in our house hunting ventures and kept coming back to it when discussing what we wanted.  I will post more pictures of the house once we have settled in.

As far as schools, there were actually more options than we initially thought there would be. We looked around a lot, but we both felt pretty strongly that L'Ecole Belge was the one. Between the staff, parents and most importantly, kids...we felt that this is where our kids would fit best. We talked to a lot of parents and staff and this seems to be the place. There were a few schools in town that were Anglophile, but we thought it would be a missed opportunity to place tham in an English speaking environment. We hope that Ava and Ian will soon excel at French! I need them to translate for me.
