Our House in PA!

Well, after being in a 1000sq town house with 4 little boys, and having World War III everyday sense we were all living on top of each other. We had been on a housing list that they do out here for students, and one became available. When she called to tell us we were so excited. So now here are some pictures. It's one of there bigger houses (which is way nice). Also it has air, a fenced back yard, a garage, and a dishwasher!!! I know that may sound funny to some but out here its hard to find a house that has all that. So we got super LUCKY!!! The front look how green the grass is. It rain's so much we don't have
to water out here and we still have green grass.



Our family room its nice and long.
When taking this picture I was standing on our stairs.
I did not take any pictures of our up stairs there are 3 rooms up
there and a bathroom.




Our nice big Kitchen I love having lots of counter space and a
nice place to put our table. The door in the back leads to a huge
sun room. We have put all the boys toys back in it.



Here is the back of our house. The room with all
the windows is the sun room. The other window you see
on the house next to the sun room is another room we
are using it as our office(its huge) so when guest come to stay
we have room. Also there is a half bath downstairs.


Our nice big back yard. We have two huge trees.






Just to show our families how close we are living to
Matt's school. Its only about 7 houses away just up a little ways from that yellow sign. So now we are also saving on gas because Matt walks to school.





Another Huge plus is we have 8 other
families in our ward living on our street. So they boys have had lots of play buddies. Today we had two other boys over to play and they watched part of a movie and had popcorn.Also Hunter has a girl on our street in his same classat school. I have heard through the great vine that we got lucky and got the best 1st gr. teacher at his school (that makes me a happy mom). So we car pool and take turns taking them to school. It really has been a huge blessing to get into this house. We are really loving it here.
And have already made some awesome friendships.

Hooray!! What a relief to have some living space!! I'm glad you're enjoying it and everyone's settling in. (It's weird having a 1st grader, huh?)

Hey Brit I am glad you got into the bigger house it looks beatiful, and having a guest room will work out perfect when we come to visit. Also having buddies on the same street for the boys to play with is wounderful love ya.
