Home Sweet Home


Tuesday we went through our final (and first) walk through of our new home. Wow.

We actually drove out there on Monday. A nice 16 1/2 hour drive in the Jeep Wrangler. Complete with hot sun, pellting winds, bumpy roads and oh yeah, no air conditioning. :) Most of the drive really was nice...especially once we drove though the Rocky Mountains. John and I agreed it was the most beautiful scenery we have ever encountered on a drive!

We spent the night with our realtor again...she's so great.

And Tuesday morning we met the project manager to give us the grand tour. Somewhat unbelievable. It still seems like a really great house that we are going to visit for the summer. Hard to fathom that it is ours.

it was beautiful. Wonderful. It was fun picturing the kids running up and down the stairs or sleeping in their rooms. We got to meet some of the neighbors across the street who were delightful. Moved there a year ago from California. :)

We spent several hours in the house just walking around, dreaming, laughing and thanking God.

We experienced some crazy Colorado weather before we left. A lovely hail storm that left about 3-4 inches of hail on the ground. There was incredible lighting and the LOUDEST thunder either of us had ever heard. Crazy.

We flew home Tuesday night grateful for air travel and our families that took care of our kids while we were gone.
