Our Home and Neighborhood

We moved into a new home that we built in July of 2006. We did a lot of the finish work ourselves (moldings, painting, tiling, building the retaining wall outside, etc) for a full year before we moved in. It was a lot of work, but it has been very satisfying and wonderful to live here and know that we’ve done a lot of the work ourselves. It turned out so beautifully! We LOVE it and feel so spoiled.

We try to make our home a peaceful place, wherein the spirit of our Savior, Jesus Christ, can always be felt. Our home is a safe place, where people are welcome and where we can laugh and be ourselves. Our home is a gathering place. We love to host get-togethers… we love to stoke up the BBQ and just have a great time with friends and family. We hope and pray for the day when we can welcome a precious little baby into our home so that we can share all the love and joy that we have with them.

We live in a great neighborhood. It is safe and quiet and we know our neighbors well. We have a pretty good mix of ages. There are lots of small children, as well as older children with middle-aged parents and elderly people. Because we're in Provo there are a lot of members of our church that live close by, so we are near people who share the same religious beliefs as us We live close to schools and parks, and it's a beautiful area with nice, well-kept homes.  We live in an established neighborhood, where people have lived here a long time, grew up here and now are raising their own children.  We really like the area where we live and will probably be here a long time. We have a really good community as well. There are lots of things to do, great healthcare, good schools, and a great sense of community.
