I CANT Sleep...

Because tomorrow, or rather TODAY since it's 1:30am, we are MOVING.
I can still hardly believe we are homeowners and that we have a mortgage and utilities to pay. 
That we have a yard (starting next week) to mow and weed.
That we have garbage cans and a mailbox of our own! 
It is all so exciting.
Almost surreal.
That dream of having our own home has finally come true! 
(Thanks to my amazing, incredible, super awesome and hot husband)

A huge Thank you to everyone for all of the well wishes and kind words about our home.
It seriously gets me all emotional 
(because I'm Kyla and that's what I do) 
to see so much love! 

So, I thought since I couldn't sleep, and because you are all so kind, I would post some house facts and photos of the inside of our beautiful new home. 
Plus, I know you are all DYING to see it.

I'll write more later of how this whole home buying bit came about so quickly but here are a few facts and photos for your weekend viewing.

Lot 50 Facts:
The home was built in 2013 (duh).
It was built by Edge Homes 
(We LOVED working with them and the awesome selling agent Amanda.. 
(Kevin represented himself which was great)
It is on .18 acres (smaller then we originally wanted but still enough).
It is 3 stories (2 plus a basement)
It's 2200 sq feet finished and 1000 sq feet (basement) unfinished 
(3200 sq feet total).
2 car garage.
It has 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths.
The master bedroom is AMAZING 
(because of its beautiful bathroom and HUGE walk in closet).
The color in the kitchen is ESPRESSO (not black).
Granite counter tops.
Laminate (wood looking) floors throughout kitchen and dining.
All hardware is OIL RUBBED (instead of standard silver).
Open stairwell with rod iron bars.
Beautiful views of the mountains.
AMAZING neighborhood
(our street only has one entrance and 3 dead ends so no through traffic... LOVE that)
Close to the freeway and LOTS of shopping.

Basically it is the PERFECT starter home as our little family grows.
I feel so blessed to have such an amazing house as my FIRST home. 


Happy WEEKEND Readers.
My Boys and our house number #750
Pretty Railing and dark stained wood.
Front door looking from dining area.

It's ..... (Our BIG Secret Revealed)

OUR FIRST HOME!

We are so excited to announce that we are officially HOME OWNERS! 
(Officially as of this morning)
Signed the papers, got our keys, garage door openers and it's OURS.



Hunter was not too amused with all the paper signing this morning
(It was cutting into his morning nap)
We are feeling so blessed today as it all sinks in.
We are so grateful to be able to purchase a home at this point in our lives as we continue to grow our family. 
We are grateful for timing (story to come) and how everything happens for a reason.
We cannot wait to share with all of you as we start this new adventure.

The move starts IMMEDIATELY.
I will be moving things over throughout the week and then the moving truck will be here Saturday! 
(Insert the BIGGEST sigh of relief and joy you have ever heard)
Saturday CANNOT come soon enough.

Keep following along for more posts about our home.

Today however, is our Anniversary and I have lots and lots to do before my sweet husband takes me to dinner tonight! 

Happy Monday Readers.
