We moved!

This October we decided to down-size and move back out to Chugiak (about 6 miles north of our former home in Eagle River)! We are loving having a bit more land, a one-story home and less house to clean!

Christmas in Our New House

This year we hosted the family Christmas dinner at our new house. I had fun decorating the new house this year - we even got a new PRELIT Christmas tree!

Five years ago, to the day, we hosted Christmas dinner at our first home out in Chugiak:

What a difference five years makes!

 After dinner we opened presents (and put together a puzzle).

"It sounds like Legos!"

We hope everyone had a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Back in Eagle River!

This summer we found our dream house on the market and decided to try to sell our house and go for our dream. Seven days later, our house had sold! So.. just a few weeks after that we packed up our first house in Chugiak and moved into Eagle River.

It was a whirlwind month, especially since we moved three days after I returned from a weekend trip to New York for my cousin's wedding. Now we are in a great home in Eagle River, with a bit more square footage.

Our fantastic life group helped us move, and we had a blast while doing it!

Time to fill 'er up!
