Our Big Move

We recently bought a twin home in Springville, UT. Our first home and largest purchase. We were sad to leave our comfortable apartment and awesome neighbors but glad to be expanding our living area. We just had too much stuff to fit into our apartment. We found our home pretty quickly and were able to close on it about a month and a half later. Some of you might be wondering what a twin home is. Basically it is a town home where we share one wall with our neighbor. Our new home has four bedrooms, two and a half baths, a garage and our favorite a dish washer. It was built in 2006. We love the new space we have. Just after we were able to close I went on vacation to visit Erin and Chad. This left Mike home to move a lot of our stuff and work with our painter. I didn't plan this trip just so I didn't have to help out. It was planned even before we found a home. We thought it would be a great idea to get the place painted while I was gone. We found a painter and had him give us a bid. It seemed too high so we almost opted to not have him paint. We decided to have him only paint the main areas and our master bedroom. He was eager to get the job and brought the payment down quite a bit. He told us that he would be able to get it done by the day after I returned. We had told our landlords that we would be out of the place by that weekend. It happened that the painter was not really true to his word and didn't finish until Sunday morning when he kept saying he would be done by Thursday or Friday. We ended up piling everything in our garage and sleeping at our parents house for two days until we could get in. We have been at our place for about three weeks now and are really liking the place. We have most of our boxes unpacked and are still working on decorating and painting bathrooms and bedrooms. Here are two pictures of the outside of our house. I will post more when we get things a little more in order inside.
