Finally... a home!

This has been one of the longest, most challenging times we have gone through. But finally after months of wondering and working and having EVERYTHING fall out from under us, we have been blessed with a beautiful home in Kaysville, Utah. You are probably thinking...hmmm, I thought the house you were buying was in Layton. Well it was. And thanks to an incompetent loan officer that promised that all was well and great, could not get us to a closing date before our contract expired. So not only did we loose our home in Layton, but we lost about $1500.00 in fees. (that really really hurt) So, in the midst of being homeless (we were staying with the Perry family, who should be granted sainthood for having us for so long)Kris did some research and found this home in Kaysville. Every time he searched for homes, this one came up, and now we live in it!
I told Kris that I loved the feel of the home from the moment we walked into it. I had told him, if we didn't have our offer in on the Layton home, I would have taken this home in a heartbeat. little did we know what was in store. So here we are. I thought I would post some pictures because it is so picturesque that you just have to see it.
On one note...there is NO grass at this home, in this yard. The front yard is oak trees, other trees and Lot's of ivy ground cover. The back yard is like stepping into the woods, complete with river and bridges. The dogs love it. Zoe goes down into the water every day! She is crazy!
So enjoy the pictures and come see us sometime
1120 Cambridge Rd, Kaysville, Utah 84037
This first picture is looking from the backyard back at the back of the house

This next one is looking from the lower bridge on the west side of the property up to the east side of the property

This is Nick, in the river, having a great time. There are parts of it that are about 18-20" deep. Most of it is about 8-10" deep

Zoe, down in the River. Zeus got in once, I can't seem to convince him to go in again...

This is looking West from the patio towards the lower bridge.


This is looking east from the patio up towards the mountains!
