We have been busy busy these last few weeks and it's about time we caught up. I have a fabulous trip to the Smoky mountains to tell about but that will wait for another day. I will start with now and work are way back. We are moving in a few weeks and we just got back from Pa looking. We are renting and because a lot of people rent in the area, things are constantly turning over.
Housing is also expensive if you want to live in an area that is safe which we wanted so there wasn't a lot in our price range but we did find this......

and we couldn't be happier. It's a house that was built
in the 1940's.and he people who own it redid everything
in the house. It's beautiful.

This is the front room. The whole first floor has
wood floors. The living room connects to the
dinning room making a nice L-shaped room.

I love this kitchen. It's small but it's so light and it
has lots of cupboards. I better keep those cupboards
organized or everyone will be able to see our junk.

The first floor has two bedrooms on it and the top floor is
what we call the attic room.It's quite a good sized room with
a little bathroom:)Jackson and Jocelyn are very excited
about having this as their room.Kelsey will join them once
she advances from the crib. After seeing this room
Jackson ran down the stairs exclaiming, "This is the house I
have been dreaming of".We were glad to make his dreams
come true. The house also has a basement with
a utility/storage room and a family room.

This is part of the backyard. The neighborhood is darling. Most of our neighbors have been there for twenty plus years. The city park is about two house down as well as the city outdoor pool. The library is up the other street and the post office is down the street from the pool. Up the street shown in the picture is the school complex. Jackson was so excited about the thoughts of riding his bike to school. What's even better it's about 10 minutes or so from the hospital. A lot of the ones we were looking at were quite away out there. We feel very fortunate to have found this house. We looked at a lot of places that weren't very nice and were more money than this one. I am so sad to leave my house in Columbus but this house is helping me feel excited about he move. It's smaller than our house in Columbus and there is no garage so we will have to adjust to that. Starting in a few weeks this will be our new place to call home.

It is BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT. It reminds me of our Bountiful House, which was built in the 1950's and was also remodeled :) You will love it. And the hardwood floors are so much fun and I think much easier to keep clean. Looks like a FABULOUS neighborhood and you will have so many things so close :) Cannot wait for you to move in and make it yours!
Very cute home! I think you are smart to rent. I love the attic room and you will be happy that you have a basement. I love the wood floors and that kitchen is very beautiful. I am excited for you guys. Good luck with the move and keep in touch.
Isn't nice to know that things are working out for you guys. Can't wait to come visit.
Love the house. Sounds like a really fun neighborhood to live in with little kids. As for Jackson wanting to marry Kennadee tell him we approve and would be happy to have him as our son-in-law! By the way I forgot to email you a Happy Birthday on Sunday hope it was a good one!
Yea for finding an awesome house - it really does look awesome, especially after hearing about orange carpet stories ;). I'm excited for y'all - but sad you're leaving at the same time!!!

I adore homes from the 40's and 50's- I like to wonder about the cute little house wife waiting for her husband to come home from the war and making May Day baskets for all the neighbors- It looks so beautiful! YIPPEE and new house- gotta love that:)
Looks great!!! We'll have to make a trip out to visit!
