Boxes

                               We went from having a Garage full of boxes ready to move in Boise.

To a basement full of empty boxes in Tooele to play with. 

the kids made a huge box fort.

New roof

Old Roof

Getting all the new stuff. Zacchy was really enjoying watching them get everything on the roof.

Problems in the roof. that ended up in a whole sheeting of the roof. that ended up costing 30% more then the quote. :(

And here it is...

The NEW ROOF!!

New Oven

I've been without an oven for two weeks, We tried to replace the heating element but it still didn't work. Rob really wanted to figure out what the problem was so I let him tinker for a week. It still wasn't working so I went and bought a new one. I'm so happy now. Plus it cooks nicely too.

Moby

My friend came to visit for new years and while she was here she did this to Moby, our Big White Van.

October update

The kids have been begging for Halloween decorations. So they got a few things to put out.

BATS!

 

And Pumpkins!

 

Here is my front room so far. I will eventually get everything put back in order.

I just love my new fireplace screen, don't you?

The Wall

I know it is not Halloween but this is the picture that shows the wall. What it looked like before. If you looks closely right above Rob's head and the family picture and right to the right of the clock you can see some funny marks on the wall. They were a mess to fix. Rob gets so mad just thinking about it.  After much work we finally got to the next step.

 

We decided to retexture the whole wall so it would all match.

this is where those funny spots were. if you look close then you can see the white behind the spots.

Painting!

More Painting!!

I love  how the fireplace stands out more then it did before. And you can't even see those bad spots on the wall.

We just need to do one more cost and then I get my new floor!!!

Old and New

 I went to open the fridge on Wednesday and broke the handle right off. It was loose and my good yank didn't help it much.  It has now made a new home in the garage next to the freezer.

So my dear Rob let me look at new ones at the store while he went the other direction to find something else, which he ended up not being able to find. Came back to find me and we bought a new fridge.

this lovely new fridge is the newest member of the household.

It makes ice and has a water dispenser in the door. FUN!!!

It is much bigger inside  too. I'm so excited!

It fits perfectly in the spot too. I was really worried it would be to tall or to wide but I guess it was meant to be.

In love!

Oops

This is what happens when you just let things FLY. Like the door when you come running inside.

 so this will be our new project, fix the whole. Or make a bigger hole....

We will keep you posted on that one.

Cutting

We were in formed by our home owner's insurance that we had some trees that needed to be "trimmed" or our insurance was over. So we got right on that and decided that they best plan of action was just to cut it down. It was planted way to close to the chouse to be able to cut it 5 ft away.

 

I love watching Rob be HANDY!!!

 

A new home

WE did it! I still can't believe that we did it.
I fell in love with this house from the get go. the frist time I saw it online about 2 weeks ago.

2768  sq.ft.

5 bedrooms

3 bathrooms

It is the perfect size for our family.

I took these pictures of the website before the took it off. Enjoy looking at our new home.

 The front of the house

 We are going to have to learn to play basketball, or atleast "Horse".

Small backyard but I don't need it too big.

 No, that is not a shed, it is a play house. So excited to play out there with the kids.

 Nice covered patio right off the dining area.

We are so excited. Thank-you to everyone who has helped us get to this point in our life. we could have never done it without you.
Rob is excited to start his new job with the supreme court and I'm excited to start our new life in Boise, alittle scared to drive in Boise but I'll get there soon enough.

We are all excited about being close to family, No more super long carrides! (Chloe doesn't get so sick from Boise to Pocatello as she does from Pullman to Boise.)

We will be moving at the end of August.
