The Ames Family down here is Utah are about to begin a new adventure - MOVING! For those of you who don't know, we are moving to Murray this weekend. It is a great location and wonderful rent (same as what we are paying now for MORE!). We are moving to the basement apartment (lots of windows so you don't feel like you are half under ground) of a condo. Sadly, no we are not buying it, but we are hoping to buy something in the next year or two. This apartment has two bedrooms, a front door and back door. Here are some pictures:
The architect in Ben! This is the layout of the apartment so that you can get a general over view of the apartment.
What you see when you are standing at the door to the master bedroom.
From the window in the master bedroom.
Standing at the door to the bathroom.
Check out the space between the walls and the toilet - and the toilet is not even centered. There is a window above it.
The bath tub (there is also a shower in there).
Bathroom sink.
What you see when you stand at the door to Cynthia's room. Notice how one window is dark and the other is light. The dark window has this large bush out side of it, when you look out the window that is all you see - nothing else!
What you see from the corner of Cynthia's room.
The hall way between Cynthia's room and the Master room. Notice on the left there is a door, that is the bathroom and on the right there is a larger entry way, that enters into the living room.
What you see from the entry way leading into the kitchen from the living room.
The other angle from the entry way leading from the living room.
This is taken from the corner of the kitchen (behind the fridge). That door is the pantry door, next to it is where our washer and dryer are going to go when they arrive on Friday and on the other side of that (out of the picture) is a coat closet.
This is what you see from the entry way leading from the kitchen. Notice how bright it is for being a basement.
And finally, this is the other view of the living room. Notice the coat closet. The other closet thing is where the furnace is.Is this not just one of the cutest little places that there is?
Our new address is 181 East 5460 South #8, Murray, UT 84107. We are 0.4 miles away from Costco, so guess where we are going to do all our shopping. There is also a mall down the the road, along with Smiths, Walmart, a whole bunch of car dealerships, the play house, Burlington Coat Factory, Toys R Us, a large variety of eating places (fast food and sit down), the trax and so much more. You will have to came and visit to find out what a great location we have!
For those of you who don't know. Ben is at school again. He is taking two classes over the summer and a full load in the fall. We are so excited for him. He got an A on one of papers that he wrote the other day. Yay for him! Another exciting event for Ben is that he got named Employee of the Month at UPS! He has is own parking space for the month of July!
Cynthia has been up to much more than anyone of us. She can sit up officially by herself. She is standing with a little of support (meaning balance). She is becoming mobile and is having fun rolling from back to front and front to back. She enjoys reaching for things and when she gets them, it is not fun any more so she reaches for something else. She has started to learn to sleep without being swaddled - she wakes up more at night time though. About six weeks ago she found her feet and they were the new toy for about two weeks. She enjoys reaching for things and covering her face with them. She really likes to slobber all over ice-lollies. Yesterday she had her first taste of real food - PEACHES! And oh, did she love them! She could not get enough of them. You see she has not had a poop for about a week, and Ben and I have been worried, so we decided to try give her something else other than rice and formula. So we feed her peaches. And what do you know, she pooped! She can put her dummy in her month all by herself. She can reach for her bottle and out it in her month.
Life is very crazee with the Ames family at the moment!
