Proud Home Owners



Rich and I just bought our first house on July 10. Our July has been so busy that this is the first time I have been able to sit down and get some picture of our house being built up. That and....Its not much yet...just the wood pretty much! But this week we got Windows and doors put on our home and I believe shingles will be going on as well! When we stopped over to check out the progress on Wednesday the packages of shingles were on our roof! We will close on the house on October 23, 2009. And start moving in that weekend. We are very excited to move to a place with a little more space. This home is on the Southwest side of SIoux Falls. It is off of 57th Street and Grinnell Avenue. Our address will be 7801 Wilson Drive. We bought a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house. We found out that we had bought this house early enought that we were able to pick out a lot of details of the home. We have been busy picking out siding color, brick color, interior paint color, carpet and vinyl flooring, cabinets, counter tops, etc. It has been fun and a little bit scary! I hope it all turns out the way we are picturing it!! We will keep you updated on the progress, but for now....here it whats out there!

The inside is just all boards yet so you cant really tell what anything is...hopefully when we get back from our 8 day vacation we will be able to see lots of progress!!

My New Godchild















This weekend Rich and I had the opportunity to go home to my parents' home and see my new Godchild. Riley Micheal Krohnberg is the son of my best friend Maria (Stock) and Brady Krohnberg. He was born Tuesday July 7, 2009 at 5:12 pm. Riley was 8 pounds 12 ounces and 21 inches long. We were able to spend Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon with Maria, Brady and Riley. What a precious little miracle. We are so blessed to be a part of his life. Here are a few pictures of him just 4 days old!

4th of July Weekend










This past weekend Rich and I were blessed to be able to spend some time with both of our families. Rich's sister Meredith and Brother in law Justin came out to visit us. We went on a short vacation to the St.Paul/Minneapolis Area. We did some shopping at the Albertville Outlet Mall, Mall of America, and IKEA. We also were able to catch the Tigers vs Twins game on Friday. We were able to watch the 16 inning game that the Tigers won against the Twins! We found it really nice and relaxing to get away and do some things that we dont alway get to do!




On July 4, after shopping at the Mall of America and IKEA, we were able to spend some time with my family in Bricelyn MN. We played some baseball with the family and watched fireworks. We had an amazing relaxing weekend with our family!
