Our new home!

Just got done unloading and Kate got a tubbie... notice her 10pm snack of potato chips!
Dave and Jules wiped out from a long day of driving... testing out their new air mattress.
This is our family room. The hallway is basically our whole house. To the right is the kitchen. To the left is the rest of the family room and patio. Down the hall... 1st door on the left is Kate's room, 2nd door Linen closet, 3rd door Chandler's room. Straight down the middle is our bedroom, huge closet and bathroom. The doors on the right... 1st door coat closet, 2nd door the laundry room and 3rd door is the kids bathroom.
This is the rest of the family room and sliding door to the patio. Chandler is taking a snooze in the nest.
The kitchen... the door on the right is the pantry.
The laundry room. I love my new front loaders!

Steve's parents drove with us to Utah. Steve and his dad got an hour head start in the Penske moving truck while his mom and I drove with the kids in my car. At times Julie and I both wished we were driving the moving truck. After six stops(actually seven, one by the Highway Police) and purchases of gummy worms, stretchy frogs, chips, cookies, apple juice and the Cinderella and Barbie DVD...we finally caught up with them in Nephi. I drove with Steve in the Penske truck for the last hour and a half, while they followed behind.
With the help of Dave's nephew in laws and some neighbor skateboarding kids, they had the truck unpacked in an hour. Dave flew home the next day, while Julie stayed until Tuesday to help me unpack and tend the kids(THANK YOU)! My sister, Shanda flew up on Wednesday morning until Saturday to help finish all the unpacking and play with the kids too(THANK YOU)! How blessed we are with the help of ALL of our family!
