Home Sweet Home!


We've discovered home is a very relative term.
We have a home in Minnesota.  It's so weird to see other people's stuff in it! But we have a mortgage to prove it's ours!
We had a home in Utah.  It was Grandma Betty's and M still asks to go back to it all the time.  (We think this stems from it being the last place where she was the "queen" before LG was born, and she remembers it better than the Minnesota house and so to her, it's the last place that we were alone as a family)
We have a lovely home here.  My parents have been amazingly gracious and loving, opening their home to us and putting up with us for way longer than they should have had to.

Hence, it's time to get our own home again. 

Welcome!
At the beginning of June, we will be moving into this nice 2 bed 2 bath apartment.  We will be downsizing and it will be interesting to see what fits but we'll make it work!
As you can see, M and LG are a little excited about their new space!
This is the girls/guest bath.  We're working on brainwashing M to believe that diapers won't be coming to the apartment so she has to return to the task of potty training when we got to our new home.
We're excited! W has been a trooper to live with my family for so long.  And we haven't had our stuff in over a year.  It's time! W goes to Utah to move out of the storage unit at the end of May and then we'll be moving in!!!!

Yipee! It looks great! It will be nice to finally have your own place. We lived with Aaron's parents for a while, it was great to be there, but it felt so good to have our own stuff and space. Let me know if you need help setting up or taking the girls so you can.

So excited for you! Having had our own things in "storage" for the past TWO years I really do feel your excitement. Good luck with everything. Moving is so much work, but so nice when it is done!

How exciting to have a place of your own again! I can't wait to see how you make it your home. Is W stopping through CO on his way back with the stuff?
