The New House!!!!

I have promised everyone that I would get some photos out here of our house.. it is hard to take photos to truly show you what the house looks like.. but here are a few..
From the top down:
1) Avery's bedroom 2) Lexi's Bedroom 3) McKinley's Bedroom 4) Master Bath Vanity 5) Master Bath whirlpool 6) Master Bath shower w/ 1 of the 2 walk in closets 7) Master Bedroom (still hoping to get a bedroom set soon) 8) Guest Bath 9) Upstairs Living Room 10) Upstairs Dining Room 11) Kitchen 12)-14) These are photos of the office.
We still have a lot of small things to do.. When you ask Ryan the work seems never ending, but we are in and that is all that matters.. With time we'll get everything in order! Stop out and see us if you are in the area!

So Much to Write About...

Sorry it has been so long since my last blog... Life with the Schreurs family has been very busy over the last month..
First.. April 15th.. We moved into our new house.. we love it; however it is a lot to get organized.. Thank goodness for my mom.. she has been here for the past couple of weeks trying to get us in shape! Can't wait for everyone to come see it!
On April 17th our family was saddened by the loss of our 4th child. I was 17 weeks along (2 days shy I guess) and went in for my normal Dr appt and we couldn't find a heartbeat. An ultrasound confirmed that we had lost the baby. What an emotional day for all of us. We keep telling ourselves that it happened for a reason.. which it is hard to except; however we know in our hearts that is the truth. We are very blessed with our 3 beautiful girls.. but will never forget our little angel. Since God has a plan for all of us, he will let us know if we will someday try for baby #4. Thanks to everyone for their thoughts, prayers, cards, e-mails during this difficult time. We are blessed!
On April 23rd, I went with Lexi to the Circus.. What a beautiful day.. The photos are below..
Lexi's last day of pre-school was Thursday, April 30th.. She did such a great job singing at the concert.. A few photos below.. She thinks she is going to kindergarten next year, but with a June birthday we are going to have her go to pre-school one more year.. I know it won't hurt in the long run..


I will get photos of the other two girls shortly.. they are all growing up.. McKinley will be having her concert on Tuesday, May 5th (her dad's birthday) that will be fun to watch.. Avery is in the terrible two's.. but still wouldn't trade her for the world. McKinley is doing very well in kindergarten and she will have kindergarten graduation on May 29th.. it is so hard to believe I will have a first grader soon! Wow.. how time flies..
Starting April 18th.. we have had weddings every weekend.. our last one is May 16th.. (5 weekends in a row.. ) Then camping starts.. so I am sure as we get things settled in the house and camping starts, I will have more to blog...
I hope all is well with everyone!
