We're moving

As many of you may already know, we have purchased our first home here in sunny St George. We got a great deal! We bought the home on auction after previously making an offer for $43,000 more than we finally purchased it for. It is a rambler with a full finished basement (less one storage room). It is 2100 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and on about a quarter acre. It is a fixer upper but a great home. We are currently making repairs on the driveway and fixing up the inside to our liking. The backyard is fully fenced and a great summer project! We are thrilled with this blessing for our family and hope to share many memories in our new home. We have been looking for the past year and know the Lord was watching out for us. It just feels right!front of home

It sits 8 blocks from work and within walking distance from the kids' Elementary school, no more taking the bus next year!

Front Room

Kitchen

Looking into the kitchen

This has two times the amount of cupboard space as our current kitchen and two pantry closets for extra storage, it needs a little updating but isn't that the fun part!

our dining room

We can actually fit the table all the way out instead of cramped in our current space, I am removing the vertical blinds, my kids always pull them down

Main bathroom

We will replace the vinyl flooring with tile provided by my parents!!!

Master Bedroom

This included a master bath and two nice size closets Bedroom 2

Nursery (smallest bedroom in the house)Family Room
This room is large enough for a sectional sofa, entertainment center and a pool table, plus a large storage closet that is has partial plumbing for an additional bathroom

Downstairs Bathroom

The kids personal favorite roomBedroom 3
Dinosaur room extraordinaire, I have plenty of ideas of what to do with this room

Bedroom 4
Butterfly room, the princess will love her very own, large bedroom!


Back of house

We want to eventually add a covered wooden deck out here, lots of barbecues for the future

Backyard

This one will be a project/adventure

I see us making the yard into two levels, adding stairs to the lower level, lots of grass, bushes, and trees on top and a playground with swings, playhouse, sandbox and a large garden on the bottom half. It will take us awhile to accomplish all this but I am sure we'll get it done!
