Happy New House Satisfaction!



So--!
We haven't actually moved yet--we don't move until the 12th of May--but our house is ALL DONE and we had our first walk through this morning! Yeah for a pretty new house! It was so fun to see everything finished and ready for us to move in. We wrote down a few things that needed fixing--so don't mind all the orange strips that you will see in the videos, they are just places that need to be fixed. There are going to be a lot of pictures and a lot of videos that most of you probably don't care about--but for those of you who do, enjoy!

The outside of our home
(you're right Dad, it does look like a slope, but it's not much of one, if at all)

Here we go! Home Sweet Home!


Here's the front door and entry!



Kitchen and Storage Closet


Master Suite (sounds more posh than master bedroom/bath)


Going up stairs and Gameroom



Guest Room and Bathroom (where all of you will stay when you come to visit!)


Other rooms upstairs


Utility Room/Attic


Exterior/Backyard

You'll notice that our goobster isn't in any of our pictures--here's a blessing of being a member of the Church...people serve just because they can! We were told that we couldn't bring children with us on our walk-through (which, if we lived in town wouldn't be such a horrible thing, but add on 5ish hours of driving time from here to there...) and so we needed a babysitter in Pearland. I don't know anyone in Pearland, but I knew where I could find people I could trust and who would be willing to help. I called the Relief Society President down in Pearland and she gave me the number of several ladies who would be willing to watch Katelyn for us during our walk-through. So, Katelyn had a great time playing and I made a new friend!
Count your many blessings!
