We sold our home! We're off to St. George and the painted desert!!

 We sold our home!  And now we are about to begin our next exciting chapter in life; and new adventure as we decide which community and home we desire to live in.  We are very excited to be residing in the rugged, painted desert of St. George!  Though difficult to give up our Phoenix dream St. George as you can see is breathtaking with the coral mountains and soil amid a back drop of deep blue sky, sunshine, and green grass.  Plus palm trees grow there so the weather is incredible with no more harsh Pennsylvania winters encompassing ice storms and months of gray sky.  (We have treasured our Pittsburgh life and enjoyed countless memorable East coast experiences and people but we now look forward to a completely different environment and opportunities!) 

My family used to spend spring breaks in St. George and I attended a semester at the university during college so the area holds fond memories.  Best of all we will not be far from our daughter, son-in-law and grand baby!!  We also have many extended family members and friends who grew up with Jon and I as well as dear friends from here in Pittsburgh who have also relocated there!  We're also excited to make new friends and enjoy different experiences as well.  

We are so excited to be living near an LDS temple only a few minutes drive from us; also Las Vegas is only an hour and a half away for fun date nights enjoying fine dining, shopping and the wholesome entertainment we will choose to seek out.  Only a few hours from Provo and Salt Lake City in the other direction and delightful road trips up the California coast and elsewhere are planned.  We are so excited about what lies in store for us in this beautiful Canyon Land God created.
