Our New House

We moved about a month ago to a new house. We only moved a few blocks from our old house. We are still in our same Stake but just a newer neighborhood with bigger homes. It is fun to have space and finally some place for storage. As always the move was bitter sweet. It was hard to move from our first home where we lived for ten years...but it was time to move on. The kids were needing some space and we wanted to move before Anna starts Junior High next year. So here are some pictures.

One of the things the kids really love is all the cement so there is plenty of room to ride ripsticks, bikes and scooters. Plus there is always other kids outside to play with.
This is the upstairs familyroom. It doesn't have a formal living room just this familyroom hooked to the kitchen. There is also a family room downstairs. I didn't take a picture because it isn't put together yet.....same with the bedrooms. Each of the kids have their own bedroom which just confirmed what I always suspected.....Anna is the messy one. Now she has no one else to blame.
This is the kitchen. One of my favorite parts of the house. It is so nice to finally have some cabinet space. The cabinets are only about half full. Also it has two dishwashers, two sinks and two ovens...one gas and one electric....I might have to learn to cook.

This is Craig's favorite part. He finally has his own garage. I am not allowed to put any of my stuff in it.....He does let the kids put their bikes in there but the rest is filled with his stuff. It isn't quite finished but that is Craig's project just as soon as he is finished with school. So there is the quick tour. I will add pictures of the rest as we get things put together.
