Pictures of our new house!!!!!

OK, so I still haven't found my camera, so these were taken with my cell.....can you tell?! jk!

These are just a few of our new house in Queen Creek:

This is the living room downstairs- us girls just painted!

The guest bathroom downstairs.

The entry way (standing on the steps)

The entry way. Right now there is only carpet and linoleum flooring. We're having tile installed soon!

Phillips Painting Party

(side note) Seriously, If I don't find my camera soon, I'm buying another one, cause I'm going CRAZY!!

Yesterday, Kelsey, Julie, Liz, Bob and I painted the WHOLE downstairs of our new house. It was a lot more than I thought we'd get done- not because I didn't think we could- but because I didn't want to steal that much time. But I am SO grateful for it and SO impressed with the result. Unfortunately, you can't see it!
Anyway, I want to thank the people who helped paint, and also the dad's that help babysit! Thanks so much!

my celebrity twin

Samantha's Celebrity Twin is:

Reese Witherspoon

Reese's production company is named Type A, and like her, you are both a perfectionist and a planner. You're grounded, successful and when you decided to do something, you always give 110 percent. You've always been the nice, cute girl -- the high school cheerleader, prom queen... You value family above all else and realize the importance of raising your children in a down-to-earth environment. Reese is the first to tell you she's from the South and loves bluegrass music and collecting antique lace. You, too, are not afraid to show your traditional side. You're also fiercely protective and loyal.

Pics of our new house.....NOT!

Yeah, sorry if the title is mean. I wrote it because I'm mad at myself... I went out to our new house today to show my sister, Meghan. I went around and took tons of pics......AND LEFT THE CAMERA THERE! Yeah, sorry guys.

Our 3rd Anniversary!

So, Wednesday the 10th was our 3rd Anniversary!!...thankyou, thankyou...We didn't do anything major: with Dan being sick and our about to move into a new house. We dropped the boys off with Kelsey - thanks again for babysitting- and I took Daniel to see "Up" in 3D, and then out to dinner. But right before our date, our realtor called and said we could pick up the keys to our new house! It was a cute coincidence that we got the keys to our first house on our anniversary! It was definitely a nice surprise!

FINALLY!!!

Just a quick update; I know I've been neglecting my Blog!

Daniel and I are finally closing on our house in Queen Creek! We'll have the keys in our hands on Monday! It feels so good to reach the "finish line."

Then comes the hard work: Painting, laying tile, loading the Uhaul, and unloading the Uhaul!

We'll post pictures of this; it should be very funny to see us tackle this challenge in the time we've set for ourselves! Thankyou for everyone's help, support and reassurance!

Bass Pro Shop

Daniel and I took the boys to the Bass Pro Shop; the boys LOVE it there!

Of course, the boys spent most of their time at the golf section.

They're so good at it, can't you tell?
