House in the fall

Joe and I are on fall break at our school. We decided to spend some of it at our house and some of it in St. George. We headed up to our house on Friday afternoon and it was so pretty! All the leaves have changed. We bought a pumpkin for our stairs and some Halloween clings for the windows.

When we got there, we noticed that the furnace wasn't working, but it was too late to call anyone. It was really cold that night and we didn't want to leave so we made a little nest next to the fireplace and slept on the floor (we turned the fire off before we went to sleep). The next day, we spent a lot of time trying to fix the furnace before finally figuring out that we just needed to turn on the gas! Oops! The rest of the weekend was much more pleasant and we cooked a nice dinner of salmon, mushroom ravioli, green beans, and wine- the first real dinner in our house.

Boys

Last week, Joe and I met my mom, David, Jessica, and James at the zoo. I got this picture of Joe helping James "climb" a tree. I love the way James is looking at his uncle. Joe is going to be a great dad. :) (Nope, not pregnant!)

Our House :)

I wanted to post some pictures of our cute townhome. We aren't officially moving in until May or June (after graduation), but we are planning to spend a lot of time between now and then on little projects to get the house exactly how we want it.

The house is about an hourish away from where we are now and it will kind of change our "goals" a little because neither of us want to commute to SL. But, I think things are actually going to work out really well. Maybe even better! We are both really, really excited. :)

Kitchen (with a dishwasher!)

The guest bathroom. There is also a full master bath and a small bathroom on the main floor. I am so excited for the bathtubs!

We would like this room to be our future nursery

Back patio- the gate opens up to a big, grassy field shared by the community.

I don't have any good pictures of the master bedroom, but it's big and bright and has a huge double closet! There is also a laundry room and some good closets for coats and linens. We also have access to a club house, indoor pool, and hot tub!

It's pretty much all Joe and I talk about these days. Can't wait to move in!
