I am the worst Blogger in the history of blogging. . . . .But all that matters is that I am finally doing it again.  And this post is to Show our new house a little bit!

 

 

We moved in the Saturday before Father's Day and have really enjoyed living here.  Our new ward is filled with very friendly people, lots of new families with little kids. Palmer loves it!  The first week he made friends quick and followed them around through Sacrament and didn't even want to kiss us good bye when he went into nursery. We were thrilled! That family wasn't there today so it was a little harder for Palmer to go to nursery. 
Just a few fun facts about our home and the moving in process:
1) We had an adventure painting the upstairs bedrooms and discovered that neither Ryan or I should paint.  We are so grateful our wonderful brother and sister, Adam and Jess Johnson, pretty much took over  and made it look amazing.  Palmer's room used to have a nasty hand painted camo wall and our room used to be yellow with a purple strip around the whole perimeter.  We love the color we picked!

2) I have always wanted a red accent wall so now I have one! I absolutely love it!!!!

 

 

 

 

3) We replaced the carpet upstairs and are so pleased with it.  I love the smell and feel of new carpet:)
4) We were going to rip out the carpet in the front room and put new carpet and tile.  When Ryan ripped up the carpet we found beautiful hard wood floors!!! Ryan, being so amazing, rented a sander from Home Depot and refinished the wood. He really did a great job!

5) We both really love leather couches and now we have two!!! They are so comfy.

6) Palmer loves being outside!  The previous owners left a swingset.  Palmer loves the slide, but the swings not so much.  He's the first kid I've seen that doesn't beeline straight for the swings.

 

7) Ryan's favorite part about this house is the detached garage. It has it's own 200 amp power supply and he can't wait to work on cars, etc.
8) I love my kitchen! It has so much cabinet space.  It has two huge tuppeware drawers, yes Palmer tries to climb in them and he fits, a built in lazy susan and pull out drawers for food storage.  Palmer really likes the bar stools as well.  He has found that it is quite tricky to get down though.  It's funny to watch him. lol

We love and appreciate everyone who helped us move! We wouldn't have been able to do it in a day without all the help we received.

Hope you enjoy the pictures!
