..new home, salem, utah..
it's not camella park dr, but it is our home for now! it is starting to feel more like home instead of a vacation in someone elses house. we love that it is in a cul-de-sac, and the school is just down the street and around the corner. the boys love that our back yard is literally the ball fields! here is a little tour...
front view...loving the long driveway and the mature landscaping
family room...this is the room you walk into from the front door. currently not loving that, but i can live with it! loving the wood floors, but not the moose sconces! (they are so not me, i am currently trying to find replacements for them!) I am also looking for a big rug that we can put down in here, because the ceilings are vaulted and with the wood floors it is soooo noisy...everything echoes!
kitchen...the kids are loving the built in chairs. they each have their designated seat. (and they swivel which makes them even cooler!) i had another view of the kitchen, so you could see my pantry but somehow it disappeared. not sure how that happened.
girls room...it was nice to have it painted with a color that already matched their bedding. it is just the opposite of what they had in reno!
another view of the girls room.
this is my favorite room in the entire house...the storage room! don't you just love it! it is a little disorganized right now, because we just kind of threw things in here so they wouldn't be piled up in the garage. my next project is to organize it, and fill it with wonderful #10 cans for food storage! now i have no excuses for not having the room or a place for food storage! (it keeps going around the corner!!!)
another great plus is the finished basement, with another small kitchen. i have designated this as my canning kitchen. it still needs a stove, and there is space for a small fridge under the counter. the boys rooms are off to the right, they are still a work in progress, therefore no pics! there is also another half bath on the opposite side, with 2 more small storage rooms under the stairs.
this is matt's favorite room. eventually it will be the "theater room." if you have any great ideas as far as decor goes, i'm open for suggestions! (the door you see on the left leads to the awesome storage room)
this is our back yard...kind of small but who needs a bigger yard when you have the ball fields right behind you...
we even have our own private steps that lead to the fields! i'm sure with time we will get tired of the bright lights and noise from baseball, soccer, and flag football games, but for now i am loving the idea of not having to drive to baseball games! mason is already on a little accelerated team and this is where he will be playing...he has a double header tonight and i don't have to drive him there!!! yeah for me :)

Very nice and exciting Allison!
What a beautiful home! I am WAY jealous of the storage room. Funny how those kinds of things are the favorites. For me, it's my laundry room! Love it!
What a great house!!! I think it is so cute! and the baseball fields are handy. So you already know this, but my mom is totally in your sisters ward. I was so excited, yeah my mom has some connection there!
I am so glad you updated your blog!! I'll be waiting for MANY more updates about your life in Utah. :)
Gotta love those Utah basements!! I love my house here in Reno, but it lacks a basement, so it will never be the perfect house. Your home looks lovely and very comfortable-I'm sure you will grow to love it. Hope everything is going well for you guys-we miss you already!!
i love the wood floors!
Loving the pictures of the house - you've done a great job decorating so far, but I expected nothing less!! The girls' room looks great, and I am definitely envious of the storage room downstairs.
It also looks like there is lots of room downstairs for visitors...YEAH! We'll be there soon!
That's crazy that Hailey's parents are in Megan's ward - small world.
I'm surprised Heather hasn't gone for a visit yet! You've already been gone for a few weeks! She's such a slacker! haha!!
Your storage room is amazing!!
I love the house! It looks like you are settling in nicely!
It looks fantastic! Great pictures, thanks for sharing.
Looks like a great roomy house! The moose sconces are a nice accent pieces! Have fun!
I love your house. The storage rocks!! I really love the girls room. Hannah wants green in her room. I also love the kitchen. We still miss you here.
We Sure Miss YOUR FAMILY! Your house is so beautiful. Love the Utah basements and built in chairs. Tim's parents have those and the boys like to park their behinds there and swing in them for HOURS. Suprised they have broken from their abuse. Hopefully we will be out there in December to visit family and Christmas. Hope you'll be around so we can visit!!!
