Santa Monica
Our friends Matt and Crysta came last weekend for her brothers little legue tournament. We got to play with them one day and we had so much fun. We went to santa monica beach and played in the waves. Then we went to dinner at In-n-Out Burger and ate it at our apartment. After we went to the hot tub for a while and visited. It was so nice to have them over. It makes us feel less homesick when we have company! So if anyone comes to So Cal you better give us a call!!
This is me with the Santa Monica Pierd behind me.
House Update
Everything is going really Well with our house. We got the appraisal done on time and it came in for $5,000 less than we offered but the sellers just accepted the new price no problem. Then we had the inspection done and there wasn't anything to major so that was a relief. Things are just moving along really well and I think we are on track. We are set to close on September 2. There was a lot of bugs so I am definately going to have it sprayed very well before I even start to clean! My mom and dad are so wonderful and they are nice enough to come back to help us move AGAIN. I dont' know what we would do with out them. They have been such a help to us through this move. I'm so grateful to have sunch great family. Our new ward is amazing! The people are all very very friendly and welcoming. I think every single member introduced themselves personally to us before sacrament meeting even started!!! There were several young couples in the ward and they were all so nice! There were also a few students that are going to the same school as josh so that was cool!. We are so blessed and are just overwhelmed with how perfect things are for us. All of our dreams are coming true and we are just excited to reach our next goals and see what the future has to hold for us.
This is the main Bathroom
From the side ard looking towards the back yard to the gate. Our property is the one on the right.
This is the hall closet right outside of the bathroom and this picture is from inside the 2nd bedroom. There is also one more room but it doesn't have a closet so it isn't technically a bedroom. We will use it as our office.
stairs from Kitchen to the hall. ( the laundry room is to the left of this picture and so is the 3/4 bath)
This is part of the kitchen. The purple cupboards will be painted white before I even put my stuff in them FYI. all the cupboards and appliances except the fridge go on this same wall. There is a dishwasher, a drop in stove, and a built in oven all included and we got a free fridge from Josh's army recruiter when we moved to Cali so we are all set. On the same wall as the stairs there is nothing so eventuall we will add some more cupboards and maybe some counter space.
This is the master bedroom. Both bedrooms have 1 normal door and then a small door that only has a handle on the inside. Really strange but whatever! They have pretty good size closets too so that will be nice.
LUCKY!!! :)
Josh has got to be one of the luckiest people alive. He is always winning prizes, giveaways, drawings, raffles, and lots of other stuff. He was listening to the radio on the way to school and they said to call in to win a prize. He called and of course got on the air with Ryan Seacrest!! Ryan sang a song and Josh had to finish the line. He didn't know the song so he just guessed a word that rhymed and it was right!!! He won 4, three day park hopper tickets to DISNELAND!!! I was soooo excited I couldn't even breath!! we have been wanting to come for so long. Every time we came to disneyland it would get worse. Now that we live here we have been itching so bad to go but just couldn't afford to buy tickets with both of our schools and the house and everything else that goes along with just living!! We are going to go tomorrow for the day. I will post lots of pictures when we get back.
