Spencer and I just bought our first house. It is in Cottonwood Heights/Sandy area. We close March 29th and will move in shortly after. We're stoked and I can't wait for the backyard! But we are going to miss our little apartment a lot actually. I actually started to cry one night thinking about leaving because of all the memories this place contains for me- having our first child, Spencer in school and finally graduating, church callings, managing apartments, our second child, running everywhere with a huge stroller, going to the library, playgroups, parks, the zoo, our amazing ward and great neighborhood. So ironically, leaving is sad for me in so many ways. I have loved being poor (not that we'll be rich now!) and living in this small aparment- in close quarters where I can hear my boys everywhere I go. And I am so grateful for the opportunity we've had to manage this place and make it through school.
But what can I say, we're excited too. We'll let you know when the big house warming party is! :)

Congratulations you guys! Your new house looks great! Where is it?
We haven't talked forever. I'll try calling you this week. :)
Just looked back at your blog and saw that you DID say where it was. Good reading Ash.
congrats. looks great. it's very weird not being able to be feet away from your kids at all time. have fun
So this must be a different house than the one in Holladay you were considering? I am saying that because this one already has a garage, right? Looks darling -- so excited for you guys.
But I totally know what you are saying. We really miss our days in Oregon in our 500 square foot apartment. We didn't have very much stuff because we couldn't have very much stuff, I always knew where my kids were, and life was simple in a VERY good way.
yeah!!! congrats you guys! we'll be excited to see it...looks super cute!

Are you moving into our neighborhood? That's so exciting for you guys, hard to move on, but thank goodness for memories. Good luck!
What a cute house!!
House looks great. I'm so excited for you guys. There is something so wonderful about having a yard to send the kids to play in. (however small that is, in our case). Be prepared for us to invade it whenever we make a trip up that way. :)
Sweet Digs! Congrats you guys looks like a nice place!
I love the house. How fun to move into a house with a yard and no upstairs neighbors:) We are super excited for you guys but will miss you. Eliza will miss playing with your boys in church.
