MARCH MADNESS

Almost 2 months later, I'm finally getting around to updating about our new home! We seem to be fond of moving in March, it was almost this exact time last year when we moved from Salt Lake City to Broomfield. One year ago we had professional movers, this year we became the professional movers. I think I will stay with my chosen profession of nursing, but Bryan might be changing his career plans after driving this "little" gem below.

Bryan found us the largest size one could rent without having a CDL. Bryan was living large and loving cruising the roads with this moving van.



Thankfully, we received much help from our ward in packing up this monster.



We loved our ward in Broomfield and will definitely miss the people there. A few notes from the ward members. (I LOVE candy cards.)


We did close on March 15th, as planned. YAHOO!

(This was taken about a week before we closed.)




We celebrated our closing briefly with a good "stiff" drink from Sonic and then quickly went to work ripping out the floors and carpet of our new home. I cannot say enough kind things about happy hour from Sonic.



The Demolition and muscles behind it all...










We moved in about 1 week later once the "final touches" to the floors of our home were done. Here are some pictures to show the final product.






We have loved being in our home. We have really enjoyed--for the most part :)--being able to decorate, paint, and make the house feel like our home. It is definitely a work in progress, more pictures to follow of the rest of the home...maybe in another 2 months!
