Goodbye Tempe, Hello Gilbert!

The day after we arrived home from Kentucky, we closed on a NEW HOME!!!

We have been searching and searching for awhile. We wanted a nice, open, one-level floor plan and we finally found one in the very North West corner of Gilbert (McQueen and Guadalupe area).

I knew pictures were a MUST. These were the original pictures that were used by the selling realtor, so please understand that it looks larger in pics because they used a wide angle lens. :)

It's nothing fancy, but we are thrilled with the open feel and neighborhood.

Life has been BONKERS these last few weeks and I'll be grateful to finally move all of our large items over to the new home THIS THURSDAY!!

We are horribly sad to leave our ward and the City of Tempe in general, but it was time for us to "graduate" from our tiny town home into a larger home (with a garage!! YEAH!!). We will be renting out our town home soon, so if you know of anyone in the market, pass our information along.



We have since knocked down that little half wall that closes off the two room, and painted everything different colors. I'll have to post more pics, once we are settled.


This will be the toy room and guest room. COME AND VISIT*!!
* - Just take your chances that my children will want to play with their toys in the morning while you are trying to sleep. hee hee.


The back yard is not huge, but it faces a golf course, so it feels more open. And HECK, it's more than the NON-EXISTENT back yard that we have now.


Of course... my favorite part of the house.
LOVE the kitchen.


We feel so blessed! Thank you interest rates and dropping home prices for making this possible!
