The Pleasantness

People always ask how it's going living in condo with 4 kids etc. So here is my list of what I am loving about living in Pleasant Grove:

  • Clean new everything!
  • Bathroom fans (we only had windows before)
  • It smells like paint
  • Beautiful view of the mountains
  • Quiet - I can't even hear the freeway!
  • Living on the third story means you can leave the balcony doors open all night for the breeze
  • No yard work
  • Only 1200 sq feet to clean
  • Laundry on the same floor as bedrooms
  • Free TV and internet
  • Mail box opens with a key - such a novelty for the kids
  • Dumpsters - No more forgetting to take the trash out or over filling the can
  • Pool I'm not in charge of. Opening soon
  • Playgrounds everywhere
  • Jetted tub
  • Clean quiet Wal-Mart (it is a totally different world than Orem) or Maceys
  • Bathroom sinks the kids can actually reach
  • Bike rides right from the parking lot
  • Perfect three mile jog loop, where Seb can practically watch me the whole way
  • Sweet neighbors that let us love their dog
  • Fields for the kids to play in
  • An HOA - trashy neighbor insurance, love it. Even though we almost got in trouble for leaving our scooters out, oops
  • No more having to keep the house clean!
Things I am missing:
  • My chord to connect my camera to the computer. Pictureless posts are so boring!
  • Sweet neighbors that watched my kids all the time!
  • The luxury of the school bus
We hope to be moved into our new place by the beginning of July, if everything goes good. We are super excited to finally live up in SLC where Seb has been working for 6 years!
