It's Ours!

We purchased our first home today!!! We got an amazing deal and everything went very smoothly considering it was a short sale. It is a 2000 sq ft home with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and no closets. No joke, there are no closets in this house other than the bedroom closets. There are some nice upgrades though with the beautiful cabinets in the kitchen and tile throughout. It is a bi-level home and has a HUGE garage. All of our storage will be going in there around the sides. We will be painting and carpeting in the next two weeks and then will hopefully be able to move in in about three weeks. We hope you enjoy your tour of our new home!!!!

The beautiful view from our deck. There is a walking path behind our house that goes to a park. Behind this field are baseball fields.

The kitchen. I LOVE the cupboards. The stove is really nice too.

The master bathroom. Nice tub and a curved shower curtain rod. I'm excited to take my first bath in here.
The downstairs family room from the stairs.
The master bedroom with double closets.

One of the downstairs bedrooms. Both rooms downstairs have the weird window seat thing that looks like crap. We will be having those taken out before we paint and carpet.

Looking from the living room at the stairs and down the hall to the master, bedroom #2, laundry closet (on left side of the hallway) and guest bathroom.

This museum was AWESOME! The kids had a great time and were happy to stay for over two hours. Jacob was so excited he was shaking through most of the experience. Here is the link for the website if you'd like to find out some of the information about the museum. There are also some neat close up pictures of the "life" in the models.

Mommy Time


Hannah and Mommy got to go to the Denver Temple on Saturday for a Primary Activity. They did a tour of the grounds and a sack lunch afterwords. Hannah was thrilled to have some time with Mom. She was also very excited to see the pretty brides in their sparkly dresses. (Sorry for the small / sideways picture. I couldn't get it to pull up in Picasa!)

Yummy, Yucky!

(Notice Hannah trying to but into the picture!)
Jacob posing.




Jacob decided to test the theory of a book that we have called "Yummy, Yucky." This book has various things in it that are yummy and some that are yucky. For example, "Blueberries are YUMMY! Blue Crayons are YUCKY!" I think Jacob really like HIS blue crayon however. He had chunks of it in his teeth and, as you can see, it was smeared all over his face and hands. I think that Jacob would NOT agree with this one!

p.s. Brent got to change Jacob's diaper that night and informed me that it was VERY blue!

The Prizer's Came to Visit!


We had yet another visitor drive through Denver and stop at our house for a visit. Our good friends, Piper, Luke, Jenna & Miriam Prizer stopped by for a wonderful night of catching up and playing. Hannah and Jenna were the best of friends when we both lived in Bozeman. They were a little unsure of each other, but as soon as they saw each other the old friendship was rekindled and they were inseparable for the rest of the time. Thanks for stopping old friends. We love and miss you VERY much! Good luck with your LAST semester of school!

Oquirrh Mountain Temple Open House




These are pictures from our trip to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house on July 28th. Hannah was THRILLED that she finally got to go inside of a temple.
