Our House

I have had a few friends and family members from out of town ask me to post some pictures of our new house.

Our BBQ deck. Thanks for recommending Bi-Mart for patio furniture Kenton and Katrina!


Fire pit down below. We are excited for smores!!


It is really cool because we have this little bark mulch area by the fire pit and every night around dinner time, deer come and munch and nap in our yard.



We are excited to finish furnishing the house and getting everything in order. We have a lot of work to do. I have to mention the "Man Cave" that Stu set up in the family room downstairs. Just picture our old living room and you have it. Stu was very excited about the prospect of being able to have his own room in the house that I will actually let him put up his cheesy posters in.

Moving Day

On June 24th, Stu and I became official owners of a house! We had been on break for about a week so we pretty much had the entire house packed into boxes (thank you Carolyn, Jesse, Kenton and Katrina for letting us borrow those boxes from you guys!).


The ferrets were very confused about what was going on. Oliver kept trying to pry open the tape on the boxes. It was pretty funny.

It was definitely a tough day. It was super hot and while we had hired movers to help us, Stu and I were pretty much responsible for getting a lot of the boxes and other things off the truck. We were very lucky because Stu's family came down and his sister helped us unpack a lot of stuff while Stu and I were telling the movers where to put stuff. His mom was awesome and cleaned our kitchen and bathrooms and his dad brought us a couch and bed frame down from Portland. It was a very long day but it went so much smoother with all the help from the Goss Family!

Ann, Stu, Megan and me, toasting after it was all over. Champagne to celebrate our first house!


Moving day photo shoot! Stu and his sister with their glasses next to the hot tub!


Me and Stu trying to be funny...only to have Ann be "that guy" in the photo...creeper ;-)


We have a house!

Okay, I am sorry that I posted that video before the last one. I know, I let a lot of people down who were used a certain standard of posts from me. I hope to redeem myself with this...

HAPPY EARLY! FOURTH OF JULY!!!
