Ready to move in!!

I can't believe it's done! (well... almost). I'll be moving in later this week. I've decided that packing things up is NOT fun at all but I can't wait to get everything down there and set up. I'll let you know when it's ready for you to come see it!


Happy new home owners!

I'm Building!!

I've been thinking about getting a house for quite a while and I finally decided to jump on it. The rates are so low right now and I'd be crazy not to get a new home. I looked at a bunch of existing homes and couldn't see myself in any of them. I started going through model homes and determined that a new build would be the way to go for me. Now it's on to finding a lot and a builder. At first I was hooked on a Richmond America home but it fell threw. I loved the floor plan so wanted to get something very similar. My realtor brought in a builder that she had worked with in the past and thought they would have something that would suit me. It seemed to be a good match. Their realtor showed me a few lots and I fell in love with one. It's across the street from an elementary school in West Jordan.

April 30th

The LOT... pretty isn't it. Don't mind the weeds. They've been there for a while. This will work great for the size of the house and still give Jackson a great big yard.
