OUR BIG PURCHASE
Guess what??? We bought a house!! We are VERY excited. We have been looking at houses for fun, but we weren't planning on actually buying one this soon.
Well, we fell in love with a cute brick house on Grace Street...behind REI on 3300 South in Salt Lake City. It is right across the street from Canyon Rim Park and the neighborhood is great. It also has a huge yard with a garden...a big selling point for us.
The inside is great too! There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. We love the hardwood floors, gas stove, big windows, etc. We can't wait to make this house our home!
Here are some picutres of the outside of the house.
We close on August 7th, when we get home from Alaska. We will start moving in on August 14th. Of course there are several projects to do...painting being number one on the list. So everyone is invited to our painting party on Aug. 14th and 15th:) It will be FUN..ha!!
That is our big news! Have a great weekend!
Congrats. You are fortunate to start off in a great neighborhood up there and especially nice being close to REI. I'd probably make my family go bankrupt if I lived too close to that place :-).
ReplyDeleteThe head coach of the HS I coach at lives across the street from REI (south of there), so I'm up there every now and then.
Good luck moving in. Unfortunately I'll be doing 2-a-day practices during that time, so no help on my end. I'm pretty much a goner come August to December.
I wish I could join in on that painting party. Do you think Wes would let me fly in just for that? I can't wait to see your house. That's so exciting. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the house! I can't wait to see more pictures. I have loved seeing all the pictures from your wedding day. You are a very lucky girl to be living in Utah. We miss it so much and can't wait to get back out West some day.
ReplyDeleteMucho Congrats you two! We couldnt be happier for you guys. That is going to be a great place for you guys to raise those 6 kids you were talking about having!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!! You guys have a great blog :)
ReplyDeleteWhoo hoo!! It's fun being a homeowner! Can't wait to see pics of the inside w/ your personal touches! I know you'll do great! I'm excited to try the spaghetti sauce recipe. Sounds so simple & yummy. I'm in LOVE with everything you did for your wedding!!! It turned out perfect! No big surprise there!

ReplyDeleteCongrats you guys. This is so exciting. I bet it is nice to have a place to call your own. If you need any help let me know. I can leave the kids with the hubby.
