Our new house in Anchorage

Choosing a house in four days isn't the ideal situation, but it actually worked out so remarkably well,  I am so relieved.  Our development is a part of a larger planned community and is within 4-5 minutes drive of three shopping areas, and has many trails accessible all year round.   We've got a great view of the mountains in the back and the back yard also backs up to a 220 acre greenbelt.  I'm so happy my husband convinced me that this is the house for us.  Since this house was about 90% finished when we were looking, we were able to make a few decisions about the fixtures, flooring, etc.  Even better!  All of these pictures were taken before it was 100% finished, but you get the idea :)

I'm grateful that Eric knows me so well and how much I would not have liked the white paint! 

The paint we choose (glad it worked out!) and the crown moulding we had them install before we moved it, makes such a difference!

We have a lot of work to do, but so excited we were able to find a house and move in just a week after we moved.  Here's to many memories in our new home!
