Well we have not been very good at updating our blog because we have been very busy. A great deal of our time has been spent making tons and tons of decisions for our new home. Here is a tour of our new place right now. It should be done by the end of September. We are very excited.
Here is the outside of our home. They are getting ready to stucco our house this week. I am nervous about the stucco matching our brick. We will have to wait and see how it turns out.
Here is the front entry when you walk into our house.
Here is our great room. I love the arch.
Kitchen
Dining room.
View outside our back windows. We absolutely love the view.
Master Bedroom with a bay window.
I love the archway in the door and the nook above.
Master bath.
Hallway down to the bedrooms and other bath.
This will eventually be the baby's room.
Here is the closet and little nook above it which will be great for decorating the baby's room.
Here is the other bath.
The other spare bedroom.
Our two car garage. Mat is really excited he gets to park in the garage so he doesn't have to scrape his car in the winter.
The stairs to the basement.
Our future family room downstairs.
We can also have a bathroom and a couple of bedrooms downstairs one day.
My very long storage space. This will be really nice to have.
This past month we obviously have been very busy with our home and Mat has been very busy with his new job. However, here are some of the things we have done this past month:
Went to the demo derby with some friends
Celebrated my 25th birthday
Saw GI Joe
Got a primary calling. We teach the CTR 7 & 8 class. We love it. We have about 12 boys and 1 girl.
Mat joined the ward choir
My sister finished her time at the MTC and left for Germany
We visited grandparents
Mat's work moved their offices. They moved to a different floor in their building.
Babysat our niece and nephew and took them to a movie Monsters vs. Aliens
Had game night with my dad and step-mom
Had movie night with family
Had dinner over at my mother-in-laws
Hung out with some friends from our old ward who have also moved out and our building a home as well
Been to the temple a couple of times.
Enjoyed the delightful summer evenings by going on some walks in the neighborhood.
Meet our future next door neighbors
Mat and I are staying busy, but doing very well.
