The New Digs

Front door

View from the street. The yard is all torn up getting ready for some landscaping. Lots of fun!

Living Room

View from living room to the stairs and into the kitchen/dining room

Kitchen on the right, dining room on the left. Door out to the back yard.

Kitchen - I love all the counters and cupboard space

Pantry - I love this too!

Guest/hall bath just off the living room.

Master bedroom w/bath on right and walk-in closet on left

Master bathroom

Family room upstairs.
I've had quite a few requests for pictures of our new house. I kept waiting to take pictures until all the rooms looked nice and clean, but lets be realistic, that just isn't going to happen. So, I hope you enjoy these pictures of our lived-in house, which we absolutely love!
Some info on the house. It's 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths. 2100 finished square feet with another 1200 unfinished square feet in the basement. Living room, 1/2 bath, kitchen, dining room, laundry room and master bedroom on the main floor. Three bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, we use the largest room as the family room.
We're really enjoying having so much space and it's nice to have the option for more space in the future. It has no yard so that has been quite a project to get going. I think it will be a work in progress for awhile. Let us know if you're ever in the area. We'd love to have visitors!

Caught Red-Handed

I love this picture, both mouths wide open!



One morning last week I wasn't able to get my shower in before Bill left for work. This usually means trouble because it's really not a good idea to leave Paige and Liam unsupervised for any amount of time. When I got out of my warp-speed shower this is what I found. Paige had moved one of the kitchen chairs, climbed into the pantry and got a container of frosting. At least she was sharing with her brother, how nice :)

Turning 8 is Great





Dylan had his 8th birthday a few weeks ago. It was quite a busy weekend. He turned 8 on Friday, had a little party that night. Got baptized on Saturday, had another party that afternoon. And then had a friend party at the bowling alley the next week. It was quite the week of fun.

And.....We're Back.





Well we finally made it here to Utah. It was a long and busy summer but I think we're finally starting to get settled and into a routine with our new house/ward/job/schools etc. Here are some pictures from our recent visit to the petroglyphs near our house. The kids enjoyed exploring and climbing on all the rocks.
