We've arrived!

Well, we have actually been here about a week and a half but just got our internet up and running. We have had such a nice welcome here in Kiltarlity. The people have been so sweet and we are very encouraged and excited about our time here.

Here she is! This is our new home in the quaint town of Kiltarlity in the Highlands of Scotland. We are loving this cottage and already feel at home in it. What a blessing!

A view from further away...

I love this sidewalk up to our front door. It's so cozy and a nice welcome...even on a rainy day :)

The garden behind our house contains a very old home. It was the home of our landlord's father and a fun view from the kitchen window. On around the corner and through the gate live some geese, an old tractor and plenty to thrill the heart of a wee Dan!

This is the driveway up to our cottage and the view as you look out from it. We love it!!! There are often cows in the field furthest in this picture and Dan loves spotting them from the sofa in our living room. His newest joke is to tell me that cows say, "Baaaaaaa..." Haha!

Let me introduce our "new" car. We are so happy to have it and are getting use to the left side of things for a change.

This is the garden at the side of the house. Our clothes will hang on the line here :)

Here is a field behind our house. We love the views.
