New state, new house, new jobs...

So much has happened in the last 5 months, I won't even begin to elaborate. The title of the post basically says it all:

- We moved from Minnesota to Wisconsin (both where we grew up)
- We both got new jobs
- We bought a new house in Wisconsin (after living in an apartment temporarily[NEVER doing that again by the way]).

First off, the house. We probably looked at about 14 houses and then found the.one. It was so similar to our house in Minnesota we couldn't pass it up. We loved our home in Minnesota; it just wasn't in the right state. The house is slightly smaller than our old house, but we still have lots of space. The front formal dining room won't have any formal dinners in the near future as it is serving as the toy room. The best part is the kitchen and the 0.75 acre lot. Lots of yard, though it is still a big dirt lot (or sandbox as my niece referred it as), we are hoping to get sod within the next month and also a patio and driveway (no concrete either when we moved).

Here are some pics:

Kitchen Pantry-now filled with Wildtree products (seriously, half of it is Wildtree products!)

Kitchen-this sold me on the house

We do have a stove/oven and fridge now too.
