Dear Rosa,

Sorry for taking so long to write. I have been so busy in my new house. We bought a house in the suburbs (1). You should see it. It's beautiful! It's a two-story (2) house, and it has a fireplace (3). I can't wait until winter comes, and we can make fires (4)! I can smell the wood (5) burning. You should see the dining room (6) and the kitchen. They're really big. The builder (7) knew that people like large kitchens! We also have a patio (8) so we can eat outside in the summer.

We finally bought the stereo (9) we wanted. Now we can enjoy our fireplace while we play (10) good music. Thank you for the record (11) you sent me. We also bought a microwave (12), and I love it! I save a lot of time when I cook. I seldom use my stove anymore. I heat (13) up food and boil (14) water in the microwave.

I hope we can get together (15) this summer. I think the kids would really enjoy it.

Love,
Kathy
