Pictures of Past and Future

So I thought I'd post some pictures now that I finally have a computer with internet and post some of our news. Here is a picture of Ben with our moving truck (your only seeing half the truck.) The first half was filled with some stuff going to Seattle, the rest was ours, including our Subaru! Hyrum thought the truck was pretty neat!

We traveled to West Virginia a few days before we moved to see Great Grandpa Butcher. Here is a picture of Hyrum with some of the beautiful foilage we passed.
Below is 4 generations of Butcher men! Ben's dad (Grandpa) Steven is on the Left, Then Ben & Hyrum, Then Great Grandpa Butcher Gail.

Our biggest news is we bought a house! YEAH! We close November 21st so we'll be in right before Thanksgiving! Oh, I also got a job! Back to the house...It is 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and fully finished. It is a main floor with a finished basement. It is located on Hyrum street (funny but not planned that way). It should be a great first house for us! We have a 2 car garage that is extra deep for storage. The people before us could fit a boat in front of their cars and had room to spare! (Ben's excited) I'm excited I don't have to scrape my windows! The picture below is of our downstairs family room/theatre room. It has a bar (not shown in pic) with a sink and mini fridge. Fun!

This is a view of our back yard. No, the play stuff is not ours. In fact, all of these pics show the previous owners stuff! We have a field behind us which is nice for now. We plan on putting a fence up soon.

This is my kitchen. It has a nice corner pantry. On the side of the pantry is the fridge and another long counter with cabinets above and below.

This is a picture of part of the living room and hallway.

The last picture is of the front!

We are super excited to move in and enjoy the pleasures of owning a home! Now we get to be busy doing inspections and closing. Ben starts his job Monday so we are sad to have him back at work.

Hyrum has had is first real sickness this weekend. He had a fever of 103 starting yesterday and we took him to an urgent care facility last night. (don't you love out of state insurance..not). It was a pointless trip which included me teaching the tech how to take a rectal temp and the doctor saying we just have to wait and see what happens. Glad I will probably get billed $200 bucks for the advice I already new. We did find out no ear infection though. Today he is still sick with 103 fever despite motrin. He has been more snuggly than normal. It is like a different baby. Hopefully he'll feel better soon! We are excited for Halloween and the Holidays. Can't believe their here! Happy Halloween!
