1 year later

Chris and I just celebrated our first year in our house. Its crazy to think that a year has already come and gone by. We have loved every minute of it. We love our home, our neighbors, our ward, and the area. I would have never thought that I would say, " I love Spanish Fork".

We have been doing a lot of things around the house this summer. Over memorial day weekend we put in our yard. My dad came up for a few days and helped Chris and I perform a 3 day miracle. We did our sprinklers and sod in those 3 days. We also had the help of my family and amazing members of our ward to help lay the sod and spread dirt. Last night we had some one come and do our curbing for our flower beds. We just need to make them look like flower beds now and not weed beds. If only we had a money tree:) Having the yard done sure does make our home look like a home now. We also don't have as much sand and dirt every where.

Here are a few pictures of things that we have done since the last pictures we posted of our house. We have done a lot of fun projects over the year and have lots more planned.

This is my latest project that I did. Its the first thing you see when you walk in the front door.
I took the pictures at night so they didn't turn out the best.

I love how it turned out

My craft room. Don't mind the mess.
I love all of the storage and space I have now.

My bro Kyle made this for me like 5 years ago and I just finally painted it a few months ago. It turned out really cute too. Bad lighting again though.

Finally got our welcome sign hung

Cute little girls my mom got me for our yard

We look forward to the many more years and memories that we will have in our home

That year went by so quickly, I remember when you guys moved in. I love Spanish Fork too, I never thought I would either. I love your Yeates shutters, I bet it looks perfect in your entry.
