New Home

Since I haven't added anything in a long time I will divide our update into a couple of postings. The most exciting news is that we are no longer homeless or in an apartment. On October 29 we moved our stuff out of four storage units (they were one small, two mid size, and one large units) into our new house in American Fork. Yes we have too much stuff. My parents came down, a couple of brothers and their families, and a couple of Matthew's siblings came to help. It took most of the day to get the units emptied and the big stuff out of the apartment but it got done. By mid December we had most of our boxes unpacked and things on the walls and the garage emptied. I just finished the last framing of items that I want to hang on the wall and we are doing odds and ends like hanging up coat racks and little things like that. The house is perfect for us and it is so nice to be settled here. Anna loves having a room and all of her toys. It was like Christmas for her when we moved in and unpacked her boxes of toys that had been in storage for a couple of months. Although we aren't as close to stores as we were in Orem we live in a nice quiet neighborhood and the ward is great! Although it was incredibly stressful getting here I think this is where we are meant to be.

Here are the details:
2415 Sq.Ft total (I think)
5 bedrooms
2 finished baths plus one in basement to be finished
large laundry room
2 storage rooms - Yay!


Living Room

Basement Family Room

So now we will see what to do with the yard this summer. I already have some ideas so that will give me something to do. Like that is a problem.
