We Moved!

I'm definitely slacking in keeping up on this blog in a timely manner, but better late than never, right?  We moved!  We've been in our new place for 3 weeks now and just love it.  We didn't have to move far and just went from Pleasant Grove to American Fork.  We were probably 7-8 minutes away from our work before we moved and now we are like 5 :)  It's amazing.

Reason for the move? More room!  While our last place (and first place together) was nice, it just wasn't great.  Very small living room and kitchen, one car garage, horrible hot water heater our landlords wouldn't fix, and generally just small.  The new place we found to rent is 600 sq ft bigger!  It has a 2 car garage (hooray!), still 3 bed 2 1/2 bath, but also has a bonus room upstairs. It's kinda like another family room.  Currently we have our office stuff in this room along with my sewing stuff.  Our hopes are to put a second TV along with recliners up there as well.  The kitchen and living are so much bigger too!!  The living room itself is the same size as our old living room and kitchen combined. It's awesome. We can actually invite people over now and have room for them!  There is also a back porch we can actually use, although it sits empty for now as we have no outdoor furniture or BBQ grill yet :)  Overall, just a bigger, nicer place for us to live.

I've been up to get a few things up on the walls so far, but still have a long way to go in decorating.  I need an unlimited supply of money for this :) I have some cute projects in mind for some of the decorating and hope to be able to do them soon. The good news is we only have like 4 boxes that haven't been unpacked.  We are just lazy and haven't done them yet.  But a little bit at a time, right? Anyway, we are happy to be moved and have more space.  We can't wait to invite friends and family over now for fun game nights, movies, and dinners!
