New place

I'm taking a break from moving to post some pictures of the place. It feels huge! And my favorite part is all the sunlight coming in. Our current place is so dark. When I got to the stairs, I thought someone left the lights on! Haha.

I couldn't get a good picture of the front since there's trees, so just imagine this, plus a 2-car garage to the left. Isn't the yellow way cuter than the dingy blue?



Standing in the living room, that sliding glass door is in the dining room.



Here's the garage. And that's like half of the door. And there's a window!


Upstairs hallway. Huge! Behind me is the balcony-thing

Balcony-thing. That wall paper is above the kitchen.



View from the balcony-thing.



K, here's an idea of how close we are to the old place. Or new place. Whatever. This view is from an upstairs bedroom. We were in the blue town home with our silver Honda in the driveway. Garbage day was 3 days ago by the way :)
The upstairs bathroom. You can't tell, but it's a lot bigger than the old place. And a window!



Me doing a celebratory high-kick because look: 2 separate closets, and our own door to the bathroom!


The kitchen. Eh. At least there's a window!

Awesome wallpaper border in the SECOND bathroom! Yay now guests don't have to go upstairs!

View from the back.
This is only part of the backyard. Like the view of our church? Behind me is more grass to the fence.


I didn't get any pictures of the rooms...I mean, you can guess what they look like. The living room has a nice big window though.

Well, I guess I'll get back to moving. By myself. I guess I didn't give the ward enough notice ;) J/K guys! Don't pity me, I'm not doing anything big. Yet.

For the record, my clothes took about 4 trips to take over. AJ's was 1. But what's really going to suck is when he has to move all his garage stuff.

I'm so hardcore.

I almost cried when i read the title of the post. I thought, how could she move without even saying goodbye? But then i was happy because it was just across the street and now you have a real house(ish).

Hooray for you!

I am very jealous right now! I have two kids and am living in a 2 bedroom APARTMENT. I think you need to have some kids to fill it up! hehehe:) I love the hard wood floors and that wall paper reminds me of the wall paper in our apartment at Birch!:)

Thats so exciting! It must have been nice to move just across the street and not have to get a truck and pack boxes. I love that it took you 4 trips to do your clothes. I had about 4 trips (to the car) also for clothes. Now you won't have those pesky kids ruining your tulips!
