Our new home!

It's been such a long time since I've last posted.  I am going to try to get all caught up this week! 

At the beginning of May, we bought our first home and moved!  Here are some pics from the move and our old house.

 Signing the papers!


 It's OFFICIAL!  We have the keys to our very own home!!
 Now the move...
 Here is John removing a hard to reach screw

 Goodbye to our old home!
 Right after we moved in, Brynn learned how to stand up in her crib.
Luckily, John had already moved it down.
What a cutie!

We've now been living here for three and a half months and we could not be happier!  We absolutely love the house!  Sure, there are a few little things that need a little work, oh, and a lawn that needs a lot of work, but we love our new house!  It's got so much room and we don't feel like we are so cramped!  I love the feeling of the new paint, new carpet, and I love the color of the tile floor and cupboards!  There's so much space in our backyard, and we love not having neighbors that can see in our backyard.  We were both so nervous about buying a home for a lot of money and not absolutely loving the home, but we couldn't be happier about it!

Right after we moved in (actually, while we were moving in), we found out how nice our neighbors are!  We have NEVER feel so immediately welcomed before in all our married life!  We had so many people come knock on our door welcoming us to the neighborhood, bring us goodies, and many people at church (basically the whole ward) stop us and ask us about our family.  They truly have made this place already feel like home for us!  We love Mapleton!  It's so quiet!  We also have a beautiful view of Maple Mountain from our front porch and front window.  We love seeing people frequently out walking with their families and kids riding bikes.  We have decided that we would love to live here for the rest of our lives and never have to move again!

What a good feeling!
