Living In The Big House

Part 1

Once inside everyone gasped seeing the size of the place as Mom quickly told them put their shoes on the large mat near the door out of the way so the wet snow and mud wouldn’t get on her nice hardwood floors or her brand-new carpets, and put our coats inside the closet by the door for now until we got settled in, while us boys carried the luggage down to the rooms. There were many changes inside the house as there were outside.

The first thing I noticed was the living room had been carpeted with light cream, maybe a little darker than one we had in our Highland home. And the furniture had been upgraded two large couches that were tan or off brown color and two chairs one side with a large coffee table in the middle and big screen TV and entertainment system with a whole cabinet of videos. Back then we didn’t have flat screen TVs instead it was all box style. The fireplace which was lit too had been painted white as well as the walls to nice creamy yellow, compared to the hospitals famous white, with wooden columns separating every few feet matching the ceiling. It slightly smelled of new paint and varnish.

The dining room still had its hardwood floor and entree way that ran all way across the room to the main entrance to the pool which was closed off by two sliding glass doors and long hanging curtains. With a long carpeted runner, too keep the hardwood floors clean when coming out of the pool into the living room. In the dining room was a huge dining room table which was the same one that came with the house, with a long bar with counter with 7 bar chairs, which came with the house. Like the living room, the kitchen was painted with a light sunny yellow with bird print wallpaper along with the kitchen ceiling as a border and the double fridge. And the double stove top ovens and dishwasher had all been replaced with stainless still appliances.

The hallway too had been carpeted with the same color carpet that was in the living room and was in each of the bedrooms as well, noticing it as we made our way down to the hallway as we stopped first at Jared and Jason’s room, as Jared opened the bedroom door. The big bed he used to sleep in was gone and in its place were four sets of bunk beds with room for another set as it laid in pieces against the wall still in its boxes and a sitting area, with a TV and a large couch and couple of bean bag chairs. And in the corner were his electric wheelchair and his manual one.

Along the main wall by the door as you come in were several cubby holes which were several small empty wooden boxes and several coat hangers for house robes as well as place to put shoes once they have cleaned and dried. Explaining that that friends come over a lot to use the pool, and spend most their time here so they built these cubby holes so when they do come over they have places to put their clothes and put on a robe, instead leaving their clothes all over the floor; plus a small walk-in closet for the boys.

Mom put the Larson’s two boys Chris and Cal in with them as well Heidi’s two brothers Andy and Troy and plus adding Sandy’s brother Sam so the all the younger boys could share one big room, telling them they would be sharing the room with Jared, and Jason, That boy’s could fight over which bed they wanted or the couch pullout bed… in any case, none of them would be sleeping on the floor. Averaging the boys 8-14, in hopes being with their own age group would make them more comfortable. Knowing us older boys liked not having our younger brothers with us every single minute.

Mom quickly gave a tour of the room showing where they can hang their clothes while they were here, hearing them gasp seeing the tub, which was half the size compared to mine, plus the shower big enough for three people; and standard linen closet with all our basic needs, with a double sink. It was fitted with handicap railing, mom didn’t say why, but it was stated that if we brought friends home from school that we would have to give the appearance that we were handicapped.

She opened the door across the hall stated. “This was Jonathon room he shares it with the two Vincent boys Duke and Ryan and Bishop Earls boy Timothy Unfortunately it doesn’t have its own bathroom, which is just around the corner. Nor does it have its own sitting area, mostly because we prefer them if they going to watch TV they would watch it in the living room where we can monitor what they are watching and when.

“Leaving all the boys 7 and under in this room, for the same reasons to make the boys comfortable in then own age group; giving the option to Duke and Ryan who are 8 an 10 if they would like to sleep in this room when they come home from school or stay their room across the hall; either way we have more boys then girls in the house.” Mom knew young boys weren’t picky like girls were. Knowing my sisters Susan Becky they didn’t get along most days. Then again they were spoiled rotten to the core.

“Plus making sure they are not up all night watching TV or not doing their homework.” She closed the door and opened the next room which was one of the five master bedrooms. They couldn’t believe all the room and how big the cabin was. It didn’t have a cubby hole just hooks where each of the boy’s house robes hung and a place for their shoes and a hamper to put their dirty clothes in.

She said. This would the girl’s room putting Cindy and her sisters Samantha, Sandy, and Heidi in this room as well as Patricia and her sister Tammy. It was smaller of all the master bedrooms in the house with a small sitting area. Just like all the guest rooms which included its own bathroom with small floor tub and small shower and two sinks. Girls nearly died seeing all the space and the bathroom and the basic linen closest that was in all the guest's rooms and the master bedrooms as well as it's on walk-in closest, It two had hooks by the door where Cindy and Samantha’s robes hung.

They couldn’t believe that we considered this room small; even though it too them it looked pretty huge, but I couldn’t wait until they saw other rooms or bathrooms. She explained. That Couch Brady had planed in moving in with us, but seeing the size of one of the trailers on a teacher’s salary was just perfect for him and his new wife Mrs. Hothner since it was just the two of them. That they would all met them tonight for a big dinner so we could all get acquainted, she stated with them not or Tony or Jenny here it opened a room for a small guest room.

She said. “Depending on the sleeping arrangements knowing our teenagers, not knowing which girls would be spending the night with what boy. My husband, I decided to let the girls fight it out, knowing that older girls would most likely be sleeping with one of the older boys in Eric’s room free one of the beds in here. If that’s going to be the case we thought we put you in here Mrs. Sims. If not when the men come home we will set up another bed just in case they all decide to stay in here.” She and Mrs. Larson giggled which would be unlikely to happen and so did Mrs. Sims and Mrs. Randal…

The room had plenty of space even though it had two full sized beds instead of bunk beds and big enough to add a third full-size bed; seeing that it was against the wall still in pieces. Mom asked if they didn’t mind sharing a bed; telling the girls that couch pulls out and if they didn’t have house robe to wear they had plenty she would get them once she has given them a full tour of the house. Watching them shake their heads that room was more than fine.

Once I had dropped off the girl’s suitcases and their things, including Mrs. Sims telling Mom that this would be just fine and we would see how it goes, once everyone had settled in regards if she would need the other bed set up. It was no secret that her daughter or Mrs. Randal daughter had slept with Greg, and Chad before or any boy in our age group for that matter considering they all belonged to the Garden Club and as well as their kids to our Night owls club which was for just teenagers, 15 and older.

The room across the hall was another master bedroom. Mom apologized to Greg and Chad that they had decided it would be best if they had their own room instead of bunking in with me and Eli and our wives. Stating it would be more appropriate considering we were married and they were not and we would be needing our own privacy, and this way they can have their own room to invite their friends over. The room had one large bed and two small desks along the wall with computers, for both of them to do their homework.

It also had like all the guest rooms a small sitting room with everything including a couch that also pulled out to accommodate their friends, a walk-in closet and full sized bathroom with floor tub and walk-in shower, with added cubby boxes and robe hooks, Moms said that this would be their room until their cabin is built, but for now they would be sleeping in my room so Mr. and Mrs. Larson or Mr. and Mrs. Randle could have this room. Mrs. Larson said she'll take it setting down their suitcases and followed the rest of us on our grand tour

All of Greg’s and Chad’s things had been moved and waiting for them to make the room theirs seeing the boxes stacked in the corner with their names on it. Rodger and Troy would be sharing the room my room as well. I saw the hurt in Greg’s eyes, but Mom was right, he and Chad needed their own room. It just wasn’t appropriate to share my room with my husband Eli and our two wives. Mom reminded him that he could sleep in our room after we had given them our permission and the same went for any of my friends and my brothers. That if they had a problem with it they could talk to their parents. Greg nodded giving a heavy sigh and followed us down the hall as Mom gave the tour.

Again every room had been carpeted and painted, with warm colors; which was unusual for her considering the Highland home was all hospital white. I had a feeling that it was a collective vote among all the wives, including the carpet. Mostly it was because the hardwood floor was always getting dirty and water from the pool and the heavy snows made impossible to keep clean and dry, it was either that or we would have to take our pants and socks off at the door, which wouldn’t bother us, but it might bother our guest that came to visit. That wasn’t part of our nudist lifestyle. Mom and they were just planning if it did happen.

My room was next as everyone gasped seeing all that space which only contained two very large beds one for me, Eli and our wives and the other one was for Chad and Greg would be sharing while we had our guests they there was a third bed not as big as the other two just big enough for 4 people, but wasn’t set up yet which Ben and Daren would be sharing or they could bunk with Roger and Tory or Greg and Chad with three to a bed. I had a small office in the corner pushed back to make room for the third bed; which was next to the large stone rock fireplace which wasn’t lit with plenty of wood and coal to make one. Without going outside, it made the room a little colder than the rest of the house, with large white fur rug in front of it. Sparky’s bed was at the foot of my bed,

Every one gasped seeing our huge walk-in closet and the bathroom was bigger than other rooms they had seen so far noticing my new electric wheelchair and my manual one as in the corner and out of the way, just like Jared’s. I saw our guest questioning it why Jared and I had them in the first place, knowing I hadn’t said anything about our undercover story to any of them wanting to wait until Mom and Dad talked to them and Bishop Earl as well as Stringum.

Yet I knew if they didn’t sign on the dotted line that part of my life was going to remain a secret. The Larson my know some of it, but not all of it. So we kept moving. My bathroom had been upgraded with urinal for us boys so our wives wouldn’t complain if we left the seat up and there were four sinks compared to the two that had been replaced while I was gone.

Not too mention that floor tub was built for 6 or 8 depending on the size of the persons and the shower and the tub was a little bigger than the previous rooms. Everything was fitted with a handicapped railing. And inside the bathroom was a built in shelves that contained extra soft towels all with my initials monogrammed on them, as well all the linen for our beds, bathing and body products including several unopened condom boxes of different sizes. Plus extra rolls of toilet paper and hand soap.

The room was painted in light blue the same color as my room in Highland and Mom and our wives had taken the liberty to make it our own; including brand new sofa which could also double as a bed that Roger, Andy and his brother Troy would be sharing. And two ends reclining chairs just like the ones in the living room except they were more of a blue-gray and smelled new just like the paint and the carpet matching the room.

Just like all the master bedrooms we had our own big screen TV and entertainment center, unlike all the other previous guest rooms. I had my own bar filled with soda’s, and snacks from chips to popcorn. Stating this where I would be entertaining all my friends and guests. Eli and I set down our suitcases sleeping bags and pillows; Mom asking me and Eli if we approve picking up the remote off my nightstand that controlled the lights, the and the music that piped into the bathroom.

Stating Mr. Vincent insisted I had some extra perks. By the door, I had hooks for all our house robes and cubby boxes for my friend's clothes, that come to visit, including my own closet that stored all my cleaning supplies like a vacuum and a mop and the basics in keeping my room clean as if it was my own house.

Mom opened the door across the hall said. “This mine and my husband room, which he likes, too call the presidential suite. I was thinking of putting Mr. and Mrs. Larson in here, but Bishop Earl and his wife have decided to stay in the cabin across from us known as the Olson cabin instead of us giving up our room. Since the Tomas have moved out into a trailer as they wait for their cabin to be built which we are told could be done by the end of next week or the week after. Which is the one you passed coming here 3 cabins down.”

Mom closed the door and opened Mr. and Mrs. Vincent’s room. So everyone can get a peek seeing that it was basically the same size as my room with everything in it including the sitting room and mini bar as well as the same sized bathroom with only two sinks instead of four and it didn’t have a urinal or cubby boxes just a place to hang their house robes. It too had been painted and carpeted that matched the rest of the house, including its own gas lit fireplace or wood burning fireplace, and sitting area like mine all hooked to a remote kept by the bed.

She said. “That leaves us with 2 guest master bedrooms, I’ll let you guys fight it out.” She opened each of the doors as Mrs. Larson her husband took the one on the right and Mrs. Randal and her husband took the one across the hall. The hallway was more in U shape with rooms on both sides of the hallway, with the pool in the middle.

Mom waited for everyone before continued on with the tour once they had dropped off their luggage. Asking Mom what they do with extra rooms. Mom laughed stating so far the rooms haven’t had the chance to be empty long since she moved up here. That it was nice to have three families living here in this cabin because it helps maintain the cost to run it. She then explained "that our new neighbors the Benson's moved into the third cabin down from us that used to be Stringum’s and his wife. Until his cabin is built which they have just started to lay the foundation, with the heavy snows coming it taking longer then they expected. The cabin was a tight fit for them but manageable.

“But it was too big for Stringum because it was just the two of them and trailers were too small for the Benson's large family, so they moved into one of the trailers being it was just the two of them, plus Arthur who they had given full custody too. Because it seems Dr. Sars was the only one that seemed to be able to handle him without putting him in a mental facility. While her daughters were busy attending UVSC living off campus, even though he offered to pay their tuition to go to BYU. They preferred not to because they like the smaller classrooms instead of being just another number and they didn’t have to go a mile or so across campus to attended classes.

“Mrs. Olson Jake's and Billy’s parents who is our housekeeper named Dotty; is sharing her house with Mr. West and his two boys Zack and Terry Which is were Mrs. Mr. Earl is staying because they had the room and we didn’t and it was better then his wife and him or me or my husband or the Vincent’s sleeping on the couch in the living room considering we always put our guest's firsts before ourselves.

“Mr. West is our groundskeeper for all our cabins and the trailer park? In the meantime he and his boys keep our roads and sidewalk cleared and helps run mine and Dr. Sars new store in town that you had noticed that was soon to be open she stated towards the end of next week."

Stating everyone is excited to meet my new guest considering we get few out of town visitors. Plus Bishop Sakes and his two boys Hank and West and his daughter Fran also moved into one of the trailers until their cabin is built, which also is waiting for the weather too clear so they put in the foundation, once that happens they seem to go up pretty quick.

With everyone gone Mom explained we had more room then what they knew what do with. They were about to reorganize until Mrs. Larson called wanting to visit my adoptive parents and the Earls to get some information regarding our lifestyle and with our extra guests Mom and Dad decided that perhaps it would be better to wait and see what happens; because so much has happened since I had been gone, regarding the shift of power inside the satanic church.

And with everyone waiting to move up here; so their kids could all start when the new term starts next week, plus the new stores. It has been a regular madhouse. She stated everyone comes here or ends up here mostly because of the pool as she opens the door that used to be the weight room was now a room for two tanning beds and another supply closet.

Off to the side was a laundry room with two large washers and dryers and a large folding table. She said. “We all share all the chores, but Dotty does most of it for us, like the laundry and the grocery shopping. We help by making sure our kids clean up after themselves and pitch in whenever possible;” She said. “And now for the one thing that everyone likes and the hardest to maintain and would be impossible if my husband and lived here all by ourselves with a small family. Now that our three oldest have flown the nest. Everyone that uses it pitches in to keep maintained.” Mom led us back to the living room and opened the glass doors everyone gasped seeing the size of the heated pool and the hot tub.

The weights room had been moved to the far corner, Mom said. “The girls and I wanted a couple of tanning beds, and the room wasn’t being utilized anyway and it was too small for anything else. Now then all that is left is wine cellar which we use as our main pantry and storage area. We usually kept it locked so we don’t have to worry about our younger kids getting into trouble down there. We keep all the board games in the closest in the corner, and the electronic games. That all the kids all like to play inside one of the cabinets, as well as bookcases full of videos, all parent screened. We don’t allow anything R rated in the house unless we see it first. Due to the violence and the language, those we keep under lock and key at all times.

“We also prefer that if you are having sex of any kind that you do so in your rooms, more so when we have company here that isn’t comfortable about the idea of sharing ourselves and it’s just polite, but as far as everything else it’s more than ok as long as you’re ok with it. And as I have said before, we seldom get visitors from town or out of town other than the construction workers constantly going up and down the road. But not to worry we have had all the windows changed out so you can look out but nobody can look in.

“The house is wired with the best security system that money can buy, considering Mr. Vincent is the CEO of one of the major companies and we all benefit from it. Now if you don’t have a robe I have plenty in storage, I just needed your sizes, and if you prefer wearing house slippers while inside instead of going barefoot or in your socks, which I have asked my boys not to because I get tired of mending them or tossing them way, because how fast they get holes in them.

“So I give them the choice because it is winter time too ether go barefoot now that we have spent a ton of money on new carpeting, so we stop falling on our asses every time we find a slick spot. Or my boys and their friends would use the house as a skating rink; or wearing thicker socks that cost more then Wall-mart brand, or wear house slippers. 

"People in town may think we are rich, but the truth be known were not, it’s a front nothing more, the money we use to pull off comes from a sludge fund from our investors as well as every time out a major player away from the satanic church we take their assets and added to the slush fund. Considering they won’t be needing it anymore rotting away in prison. It saves us from having to rely on the government folks so often.

“Normally like I said, I would prefer if they went barefoot, but it is winter time. The same goes for their clothing which is optional and prefer them that keep their school clothes clean and their play clothes clean so we don’t have a lot of wash to do and with the pool handy it just doesn’t make sense to constantly changing clothes when they aren’t going anywhere anyway. So they either go without or wear a robe when they are in the house.

“Personally, we prefer them all naked, but with a robe, we don’t have to worry if we have popped in guest, But if we do they usually call us telling us they are coming, The boys at the gates always tell us when and who is visiting. We have tight security to keep out people we don’t know, or want anywhere near our families.

“In any case we keep the house at a nice comfortable temperature using the fireplaces as most of our heat source that can either burn gas or wood, we prefer the wood over the gas mixed with coal because it is less expensive compared to the gas need to always keeping it going, We have several large water heaters that we use and don’t have to worry about running out of hot water beside the ones for the pool you would die if you saw the gas bill that maintains it, but we all share the cost of maintaining because we all use it..

“We have a huge woodpile and plus the construction scarps it seems to be cost-effective, plus our big furnace doesn’t have to be running constantly. You might have noticed that we keep it on the porch instead of going down to the barn all the time. So I leave you to make yourselves at home, Lunch will be ready in a couple of hours when the men and boys, as well as the girls, come home around noon or so.

“Mrs. Larson, I have made appointment for us ladies to get our hair done in town, and Bishop Earl has made arrangements with our local doctor here in town to give each of your kids a complete physical so they can update their membership cards since it has been nearly three months since the last time, which was at the Earls summer party. I wasn’t sure about your family Mr. and Mrs. Larson, if you were just asking questions about our lifestyle or if you wanted to participate or what. But he said he could squeeze you all in if you would like.”

She nodded that it was more than fine, in fact, she and her husband are indeed more than curious about the Garden club and the other one for our age group.

Mom said she had everything she needed just in case that they can go over it before making it official. Mom opened the cellar door, having them follow her, I remained topside. While I stayed with Mrs. Earl, and Mrs. Vincent, they said. “So, it seems your visit didn’t go as planned.” We all laughed.

I said. “You can say that.” I scratched Sparky behind the ears who had glued himself to me once more because he was afraid I leave him again.
