The ever famous new house . . .


OK I know . . . Everyone has heard about it because I'm so excited I can hardly STAND it! We just put down the money to build a new house! It's bigger and better and best of all NEWER!! My stepmother Lisa says we won't know what to do with ourselves when it's done next year because we spend so much time trying to fix our current house -- but I'm sure we'll survive! To use a cliche but completely relevant term, we feel truly blessed that we have the means to build such a beautiful home. Now it's just the waiting that's going to kill me! It won't be completed until May/June of NEXT year. It's a long time but it will be so worth it for so many reasons. This picture is pretty much what it's going to look like . . . Cactus in the side yard and all! I think the color is even close to the same. We'll have a community center with a full gym, rock wall, miniature water park, lap pool, activities, park . . . so much stuff I can't even believe it! Next year we'll have room for everyone we know to visit! (ok that's not exactly true, but we'll be able to fit more than we can now!) Below is the floor plan . . . sorry it's so tiny!

Welcome!



I have realized that the time has come to join the blogging world and create a blog for Matt and I. (and by Matt and I, I acutally mean I (Kate) will be upkeeping this and Matt will have very little say in what I post. Hahahaha.)

Oh, and I know the title of this blog isn't grammatically correct . . . I did it on purpose. This way it's not "The Murph's" as in "the two of us Murphy's" it's "The Murphs" as in "The Wedgies!" See how funny I am?! Ok maybe only to myself, but I'm totally laughing right now . . .
