Damon here. Just wanted to update the blog and show a few pictures of our house for those of you that haven't been able to see it yet. Pictures aren't in a very good order but I can't figure out how to rearrange them. No picture of the other two bedrooms or the bathroom because they are a mess and pretty boring anyways. It's a 3 bedroom 1 and 1/2 bath about 1360 square feet. We really like the house a lot. If we were to ever build a house we might like to base it off of this one and just add a few rooms and change a few things.
Here is one of the spare bedrooms which is just across from our bedroom. Has the built-in changing table which should be nice. As you can see we already have a bunch of baby stuff but feel free to send us more!

| We really like the kitchen lots of space and a good layout. Only thing missing is a dishwasher which we will probably install eventually. We got a sweet deal on the table and the previous owners left us with a nice fridge that happens to be exactly the same as our fridge in Rexburg. They kept everything pretty nice overall. There is nice paint and nice newer carpets. |
There is a little half bathroom and a mudroom/laundry room next to the garage which is quite nice.
Big backyard and a nice little shed. We will be taking out a lot of the grass, one of the bushes, and probably a couple trees this spring to have a place for a garden. The church is in the direction of the shed in this picture.
Concrete slab in the back might be nice for bbq. There is a lot of new or newer concrete (driveway and front sidewalks). My only problem with the backyard is you have to go through the garage or around the house to get there and there isn't much privacy. There is a nice white birch and another really cool tree that looks like a red birch.
We already have a few ducks. When it warms up we'll be putting in a little pond for them in the back yard.
The garage is plenty big and has a good workbench and really good lighting.
When we first moved in there was a water leak in the front yard. Luckily it was an easy fix. Most of the concrete looks like it is new. We really like the front flower garden area and the sidewalks are all new and really well done. We just wish the driveway was a bit wider so that we didn't have to park behind each other or on the street when we have two vehicles.
I must say it is one of the nicest looking houses on our street and is just behind (north) and to the east of the stake center (you can see the parking lot from our back window). I don't think we could find a house in Paul where we would rather live. Our neighbors are pretty nice. We live next door to Garth Baker and just a few houses down from Megan's grandparents Randy and Sandy Jones.
We really like the front room nice and open with a sweet rug and even has a good place to hang my buck. We really like the front window too. All of the windows in the house are new which is really nice.
Here is a picture of Megan so you can see she is actually pregnant. 31 weeks. And she hasn't thrown up in months!!
