Some photos of our home

Our home was built in 1981. It has 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, living room, family room/playroom, office and craft room, and laundry. The yard is so big and gorgeous. The house came with 2 motorcycles which Bronson and Brad are just a little excited about! Here's some pictures of some of the completed rooms. We live in a great neighborhood with kids our kid's ages. They have been having so much fun riding their bikes and playing up and down our street. We are about 1 minute from the hospital, and 2 minutes from the Elementary school, church and temple. Brad is loving his job. He worked a total of about 10 hours last week!!
Dining area

Kitchen. It's small, but I love it! Brad and I installed the microwave ourselves.
Bronson's room.
He loves his new room. Here's how our conversation went the other night.
Bronson: Mom, I love having my own room.
Mom: Oh good I'm glad you like it.
Bronson: Yeah, cuz now I don't have to listen to Avery's singing every night!

He really likes having a desk to do homework at.

We're still doing some decorating and finishing touches on the rest, but watch for more photos soon!

Here's Brons with his cousin Keaton. They are all ready to go coyote hunting with Uncle Aaron. They had a blast!

Below is a glimpse into our backyard. There are lots of trees, a garden spot and a peach tree.

Avery couldn't resist playing outside in the new fallen snow! Where's her hat??

The rest of us opted to sitting in front of our log fireplace, which has quickly become one of our favorite things about our home! It literally heats the whole house. I set a candle on top of it and it makes the house smell good.

wonderful pictures. what a great home! better get the riding lawn mower for that back yard - best investment we ever made - even though mike still hates mowing our lawn with it.

yorkies do not shed. we just love her to death. our other dog was about 12 lbs and that was just too big for our family. lacie will not be over 5 lbs when she is full grown. we are holding her all the time. potty training is going great, but just to let you know the toy breeds are notoriously harder to potty train. taking a puppy class is making all the difference too!

p.s. at least your kitchen is bigger than your apt kitchen! :-)
