Farewell

hinckley_medium.jpg


As many of you know, I am a Mormon, or a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Last night, our Prophet, Gordon B. Hinckley, died peacefully at his home. He was 97 years old. He has been the President of our Church since I was a senior in High School.

He was an amazing man and a true man of God. He will be surely missed. For more information on him and his life, visit here.

Oh Man.

I've been losing weight, I'm at 20 pounds down. I was really looking forward to being Miss Skinny pants this summer and making cute skirts for me. However, that isn't going to happen. Instead I am going to be Mrs. Big Belly :) Now I've got to find some cute Maternity skirt patterns!!!! :D:D:D

Pictures and Answers

Ok, I've found some pictures of the house. I'll have to get in there and take better pictures (when we have the inspection next week). But, until then, these will have to do.

Living Room

Dining Room (right behind living room)

Kitchen

Upstairs Bathroom


Downstairs Bathroom

I had one of the family room, but it is tiny, so you can't even see it. I will get pictures of the backyard, bedrooms, laundry room and family room soon, promise!

Ok, answers - Jen asked what the MLS is - well, since it's under contract, you can no longer look it up online, so sorry!

And, housewarming?? YES! We will have a party in April, so plan on it!!! As the earth is warming, so will our house :)

A House!!!

We are buying a house. It is a very cute house. It’s our first house. We are SO excited! We are under contract, so assuming everything goes swimmingly (which it should!), we will close on February 20 and take possession on the 23rd. It is a great birthday present for J and I as our birthdays are the 24th and 11th (respectively). I don’t have any great photos of the house, so you will just have to believe me. It is a 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home, 2080 square feet on a .22 acre lot. There are a lot of trees on the far end of the lot and S calls it his forest. There are new hardwood floors, tile, carpet and paint throughout. This is something that we will be able to be in for a long time. Oh, and it is around the corner from J’s office. He can (and will) walk to work daily! We are thrilled.
