We Made it to Texas!!

16 June 2008

After 3 days of driving through what Jared called "an automobile tour of the world's worst climates" (referring to New Mexico and West Texas) we made it to our new house.
The address is 811 Point Valley, San Antonio, TX 78253 and our phone number is 210-592-9563
It is only about 1 year old and smelled really nice until we moved in all of our stinky stuff.

This is our new house! The driveway is a lot steeper than it looks and Derek has a hard time walking on it. The grass was a lot deader when we got here too because the grass had gotten so tall that it blocked the sprinkers from popping up. Jared says that there is a nest of fire ants there in the corner that he found while he was mowing in his sandals.

This is the living room. It's twice the size of our old one. Tyler's only requirement for the new house was a fireplace for Santa. As you can see, we made that a priority.
Here is the kitchen. Again twice the size of our old one.
Here is the master bath. It is twice the size of our old master bedroom.

Here is our master closet. This takes up pretty much 1/2 the house. Good thing we have a lot of clothes.
Here is our new car. I bought it on e-bay. It was a good deal because it had hail damage. You can't really see it in the picture but it's there. There are a few dents on the hood and lots on the roof. It looks like the power steering has a problem too, but we'll just have to pay to get that fixed.

My mom and dad came with us and stayed for a week to help us unpack. Now we have an unbelievable pile of empty boxes in our dining room. However, if they hadn't come, we would have unbelievable piles of non-empty boxes all over the house. Thanks mom and dad!

Anybody need some moving boxes? Come and get 'em!
