Home Sweet Home???


So we have been searching for a house since February and have been looking at many short sales in the Salt Lake and Utah valleys. A month and a half ago, we put an offer on our FOURTH house throughout this journey. This house is on a cul de sac in West Jordan in the same neighborhood as the house on Shooting Star Avenue. I think this is the house that has fit us best as a couple. I can visualize us moving right in and being very happy. It is the smallest of the houses with 1350 square feet (not including the basement) and 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. The master bedroom is good sized with a huge walk in closet :) It also has a nice yard and a sweet shop for Mike to work in. My favorite part about the house is the fact that it has vaulted ceilings and as soon as you walk in, the house feels so open and bright. It also has a cute little loft. This house has a lot of character and style. So far, our offer has been accepted and we have a closing date of August 10th. We're getting the inspection on Wednesday and we should know by then if we're going to go through with it. Check out the pictures, although they don't do the house justice. :)

I love this house. It is very cute, and looks like it doesn't need to much work. I'm glad that the first house didn't work out!

The crazy thing is not only is this house cuter and less work than the other, but it costs twenty thousand dollars less too in the same neighborhood! Crazy!

I looked through all the houses on your blog and there is a reason you did get them, they didn't seem like "you" this one fits you both and I don't know why. I can see you living there and having a family. It is the strangest feeling in my tummy thinking about you guys and this house. You will make so many special memories there. It is YOUR house for sure!!!

So is this the house you guys got? I LOVE it if it is! I really liked the news article about the school you teach at. You are so amazingly talented, Tristin!
