Our New Home

We moved out of our tiny apartment over three months ago. Our new place is HUGE! We have 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a large basement, a garage, and a storage shed. My kitchen and living rooms are way bigger. All of my junk (or 'crap' as Derrick calls it) is not enough to fill this place. In other words, I love it here!

When we got home from Provo during the summer, Derrick had installed an AMAZING garage-door opener for me! How did I ever live without it? Oh wait, I remember... I had to get out of the van and open the door manually, then drive in, then get back out and close it.


Here's a comprehensive video tour of our home...
Note: We haven't hung anything on the walls yet, except Halloween decorations, which were still up when I took the video.



For Laura, who left Chicago 2 days before we got the keys to our new place.
For Mom, who left Chicago the day before we moved in furniture.
For Serena, who wanted pictures of my last place, but I never got around to it.
For anyone else who cares what my home looks like.

I don't think it's normal for a house to be so clean with 2 young children. I recognized some toiletries in the closets! I have more diapers than you do. Do you or Derrick wear the Depends I saw in the closet. Is your storage shed full?
Your house looks great. It looks like you are all settled in.

Sorry, Mom, but I'm afraid we do NOT have any Depends in the closet. Perhaps at YOUR house.

Wow! Storage galore. That's wonderful. Thanks for the tour.
