Welcome!

This is an exciting time for our family! We have outgrown our current home and have decided it was time for a change. We started looking to buy a new home, but didn't find anything we "just loved". So, we decided to build one. We were so excited to find the perfect lot nestled against Burch Creek! And, we only have to move a few blocks away from where we live right now. This keeps us close to all of our friends, and the kids won't need to change schools. Habitations Home Plans created the perfect plan for our new home! Kasey Malan of Malan Homes is our builder. The site work is already underway! We hope to be in our home around the first of next year. We will keep this blog updated with pictures and eventually a camera link so we can share this experience with our family and friends.

A Few Side Notes
















Right after the footings were poured, Paul headed to Alaska for a Dall sheep hunt. He traveled to Prudhoe Bay and hunted in the Brooks Range. He had a great time. He loves being out in that untouched country. He got a nice ram the second day of his hunt. He was thrilled and so was I because that meant he could come home earlier than we had originally planned. The week after he got home, we loaded up the boat and car with kids and friends, and headed to Lake Powell for our annual "End of Summer" trip! It was a blast! The kids jumped off cliffs, surfed, tubed and wakeboarded to their hearts' content. Paul and I love being with them on the boat...it is a great way to bond because there aren't any cell phones or TV or anything...just family. We traveled down with our good friends, Joe and Lisa Rich and their kids, and also Mark and Melissa Nichols and their kids. We always make great memories their and the kids look forward to this trip every year. So, I thought I would post a few pics of these two events.
