Temple Square

We went to Utah for Thanksgiving this year since we won't be there for Christmas.  It took us a little longer to get there this year due to the weather, but we got there...

We were able to spend a lot of time with family for Thanksgiving and do some shopping.  I didn't get any pictures of that.  One thing that we were able to do was go with some of the family to Temple Square to see the Christmas lights.  

 

  

It was nice to spend time with family on this trip.  The part of getting to and back were not ideal, but it was well worth it...

Movie Night

Jeremy and I were trying to decide what to do for the upcoming Friday night, and Jeremy had a good idea:  Family Movie Night...  We ordered pizza and made cookies and popcorn and watched a movie for Corbin.  Jeremy set up the family room with all of the pillows in the house and he and Corbin cuddled on them.

I was surprised at how well Corbin did with the movie.  He is only two years old...  He did great and really enjoyed his movie night.  He keeps asking when we are going to have another.  We've told him that we should have a few Christmas Movie Nights before Christmas Day...

The House

We had some people ask for some pictures of our house, so I thought I'd put some up.  We moved in at the end of July and love the neighborhood.  It is nice to be close to everything, and now we even have a Cafe Rio close by...

  One of the things we love most about the house is the kitchen.  We have cupboards that we are just barely finding things for.  We didn't have nearly enough cupboards in our old house.

 The dining area and Family room are right off the kitchen area.

 This is a picture of the entry. I have a craft room just off the entry and there is a bathroom just past that.

 

 Off behind the garage is our guest room area.

 Between the hallway and the guest area, there is this room.  It was labeled the guest sitting area in the floor plans, but we thought it would make a nice office area.  We put in a desk that allows us both to be at each of our computers at once.

 This is Corbin's bathroom upstairs next to his room. 

 

 This is the upstairs family room.

 

  Here is Corbin's room.  The house was all one color when we first moved in, but Jeremy painted Corbin's room green and we had the upstairs family room painted a bluish-grey when we had the ceilings painted.  One of Jeremy's next task is to paint the baby's room before he comes.

 This is the master bedroom.  We have all the bedrooms, except for the guest area, upstairs.

 Here's the view into the bathroom.  Jeremy said that we had to have two sinks after our old house in Pleasant Grove.

 His other stipulation was that he needed to have his clothes in the master bedroom instead of across the hallway.  You can see that just beyond the bathroom is our closet, and then there is another room on the other side of that.  The "Private Flex Room," as the plans dubbed it, is where we have our elliptical and a recliner for late nights with the baby.

 So there you have it.  We are very happy and consider ourselves blessed to have found a house so quickly that fit us so well.  Once the baby's room is painted and decorated, I'll have to put some pictures of it up on the blog.
