House Update

The day finally arrived......moving day. It was so much work and who knew where the camera was. So I didn't get any pictures. We moved into our new house on Saturday, June 28th. The house was not totally finished, but the minor things that needed to be done didn't impact code. So we loaded up the snowmobile trailer 3 times and all our junk was here. We were lucky we didn't have much furniture to move because it was already delivered and NEW!! It was also a good thing we didn't have the furniture because we had next to no help moving. One other brother, Clay, was all the testosterone that arrived. The next Tuesday, we had 4 brothers from our new ward help with the last load. We really appreciated these strangers helping us. You gotta love the church!!

I am posting just a few pictures of some of the new house. Once we are fully decorated, I'll add some more.

We finally have a driveway and sidewalk. The driveway is big enough to park 6 cars on it out

front.

Here is Tyler and Michelle's new bedroom set. We have a matching armoire and dresser. The bed is sooooo high off the ground. Michelle still hasn't judged the corners of the bedframe well yet. The sides of her legs have the bruises to prove it.

This is the family room with all new furniture. Notice the new kitchen table in the background. We love the dark brown carpet. No more stains for us!!

The girls' rooms sure are bright. Kaylee is the pink polka dot and Courtney is purple butterflies. As you can see, it is still a work in progress.

Justin's room is a sports/baseball room. He has a new bed too. The one picture I left off was of a 3 foot baseball player on the wall. I am really happy with how all the kids rooms turned out. They love them too.

At the last minute, Tyler decided to add a deck off the back of our room. I thought we were just going to run a set of stairs. Well, here is the partially completed deck. It is now done. Someday, it will be the best hot tub spot.
