We're Moving

I've been reluctant to put this up because our loan is still in proses, but since I'm starting to pack and I'm getting very excited I might as well let everyone know we're moving to PAHRUMP, NV. If you have not heard of Pahrump, it is a small town (well, not too small it still has 25,000 people there) located about 40 miles Southwest of Vegas. The commute is not bad at all, actually if your from CA the commute is nothing! Pahrump is famous for legalized prostitution (brothels), it use to be a farming community and didn't have phone lines until the 1960's, it really started to develop in the 1980's. Pahrump has a Super Walmart (all you need in a town), three casinos, a McDonald's and other fast food chains. The only thing they don't have is a Trader Joe's which I'll have to have Danny do that shopping for now on.
We have been talking about moving for the past two years now so it still doesn't seem quite real. Anyway, about our house... It has 4 bedrooms all with own bathrooms, a guest bath, an office, a loft, a family room, formal dining room, living room, kitchen, laundry room, and the garage has been converted to 4 other rooms (which we'll use for storage and my preschool, which I'll start back up next Fall). Most of the house is on the main floor the only rooms upstairs are the loft, a bedroom and a bathroom. The house is on a half acre lot (which is currently not landscaped or fenced in). The previous owner was a custom home builder, the house was a model home and the garage was his office. Let me just say we got a great deal on the house (only $63 a square foot) and we couldn't pass it up! Danny can't bring himself to buy anything unless he feels it's a great investment. We have put about 5 offers on 5 different houses in the last 4 months and this one has just worked out perfectly (so far), so call it meant to be because I'm not even sure how we began looking in Pahrump. I had never been there before and living there had never crossed my mind. Here are a few pictures of the house...
If we enjoy Pahrump we'll have plenty of room to "grow" into this house.
In our current "rental home" we haven't had a working dishwasher for 2 months, only 2 sometimes 3 burners work on our stove, our freezer has a layer of ice in it and our microwave burns my popcorn every single time! Our new kitchen has a subzero fridge and Wolf appliances. I guess I need to learn how to cook and enjoy it now!
My current bathroom is a one man bath. The neatest thing in our new bathroom would have to be the shower, which has seven shower heads! Of course, we will only use all seven on "special occasions". The downfall about this bathroom is we just might get cold.

The office.
Look, there is even a ladder that goes back and forth like on Beauty and the Beast (my friend Autumn pointed out).
The loft.

Reminder to all, we just got a great deal on this house, and remember it's located in Pahrump! All the places we have lived since we've been married have been free rent in exchange for office manager work, cleaning, or we've had students live with us to pay our rent (up until we had the babies). We feel so blessed to be moving into our very own home. Please come and visit us, we'll have plenty of room for visitors!
