We're MOVING-IN to our New House!

Well, it's now been about seven months since we "broke ground" on our building project near Zion National Park in Rockville Utah--July 2, 2011--see the following post for earlier views of major stages in the building from August to October 2011.  But we're now finally MOVING-IN--HURRAH!!  


A week ago we passed inspections and started organizing for the BIG MOVE!  Today we took up most of our big goods and will be in the house  within a couple days--target February 15 (some small things left will go by car).  Here are some photos of the house today's major moving...with help from two church members.  Of course, it will take us months to go through things which have been in storage for months and years!  Fun fun!!  But it finally seems real!


The moving van arrives with most of our goods!
Clouds building around Mt Kinesava before snow came!

The master bedroom and its view!!
The kitchen...before moving in goods...
The sun room--south side of house--very nice in winter!

The garage...before we did all our "sorting" (will take some time--unfortunately)!
Below - various views of our new home...in winter.  Soon fields will turn green!

      Brenda - you and our other friends in Salt Lake know where to come on your next outing to Zion. I'll have several exciting trails to explore, and would love to do it with you guys!

      Yes, it is quite amazing. I find myself many times a day "looking out the window"--not great for getting a lot done, but sure is good for the spirit! Though I tell myself that the inspiration and lift it gives me will make me more productive!

    Congrats to that! It's a big step forward, no? The process of moving towards a new home is such a big experience. It's not just physically moving in, but the big move to a new house that will serve as your home for many years. It's a brand new chapter in life, and you’re all very lucky to have a place that looks so pretty. Cheers!

    Congratulations! Moving in to a new house is always so exciting because it will be a new experience for everybody. But there is also a bit of anxiety involved since you’ll probably wonder if you can easily adjust to your new environment. Rest assured, everything will be okay in no time! Good luck!

    The place looks amazing! You really got a sweet deal with it. Have you encountered any trouble while buying the property? I hope not. I think the only problem you could have encountered is competition with other buyers. Anyway, how’s the experience in the new house after nearly a year?
