Our NEW house!!

WARNING!! Lots of pictures!!
When I got back to Idaho after our visit to California I did a crash course in housing hunting with my realtor. It is funny how things fall in place when they should...and how they should when it is time. I saw many many houses..many of them so lovely and wonderful. But then I saw this one..and feel in love! And then after we put our bid on the house we waited patiently for the response...and our patience was tested a bit more...so we decided we were NOT telling ANYONE! Dave's Mom and Dad knew and my Mom knew...that was it. ANd it was hard, not even our kids knew!! Buying a house is like having amiscarriage nad if you have had a bad expierence the first go around then you learn to not say a word until you are 5 months pregnant or in the house officially!! (: And just so we are clear...I AM NOT PREGNANT!!

This is our house

the front yard and side...there is a pathway to a park that goes on the side of our fence.

This is Samantha room but the three bedrooms look the same and have walk in closets too.
This is the MASTER bedroom
The "nook" in the MASTER
The other side of the MASTER
This is the upstairs linen closet...behind the door is another wall of shelves and to the left is the loft. Dont have pictures of that..not sure why.
Love the door handles and doors!
This is the front coat closet and stairs
The downstairs bathroom
the door to the downstairs bathroom and another closet that goes beneath the stairs
The living room and dining room area and our front door
The family room
the fireplace...so pretty
I am in love...with my kitchen
AND my PANTRY!! Isn't it AWESOME?!?!
Our backyard
