Ok..I haven't blogged in FOREVER. I have to admit..I have been just so busy. Between me starting a new job last Fall, Trev rupturing his achilles at the end of February, and then Trev starting a new job in May....we have been moving at 100 mph. However, we are at 125mph now as we have bought a new house!! We are moving to a new construction single family home that is as the crow flies about a block from our current home. We can see it from Lindsay and Tyler's bedroom windows!
We first checked out the model last Summer and then in the Fall and finally with the low interest rates, decided to go for it! We signed a contract on Sat, June 18th with Van Metre Homes. The home will be ready around August 30th. We love the lot too as you can see from some of the pictures. Its hard to get a lot with any space in the community where we live and this one is actually 1/3 of an acre. There is a cul de sac on the side of the house also, which is great. And across the street from us is a nice open common area space! Perfect!!

AND..the news gets better...our house went on the market on Friday and the first person who walked through it on Friday made us an offer! So the house is sold. Now i must say I will miss our townhome VERY much. We love the neighborhood (hence we are moving so close) and will miss seeing our neighbors every day. But we will be back often!

The kitchen...my favorite part of the house. I can't wait to see how it looks when it is all done!

View from the backyard where the patio will be. This will all be common area back there. And we have seen deer running around a few times when we have gone to the house! The kids love it!

The back of the house. I love the bay window in the kitchen!

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year! Ok...well its a little late :) Its been a while since I have blogged (although I have now done two entries tonight). Work has been super busy, kids have kept me busy... I guess life is just moving fast! However, we sure had a great, fun start to 2011. We had some friends over for a little New Year's Eve party and it ended up being a really fun time! The kids had a blast....both of mine stayed up to see the ball drop!! They were so excited. They both went to Party City with me to pick out plates, noise makers, etc. And they set it all up on the table as the first picture shows. Too cute!! We had so much fun and are so lucky to have so many wonderful friends in our life!! Can't wait to see what else 2011 has in store for us!!!

The kids decorated the table...maybe next time we will skip the noise makers :)

Tons of food!

Catching Up

Well when its too cold to go outside, we are stuck inside! Right now one of the popular things in the house to do is to play games on their mini computers. Tyler loves playing with his DS and a neighbor gave Lindsay a Leapster. So the two of them like to spend time playing with them.
