Grant and Julia's new adventures!

Since Julia hasn't started a blog yet, but I am so sure she will (hint, Hint)! I must share a few fun and exciting things happening in their young newlywed lives. First anniversary is coming up on March 22nd!
First our Julia had a birthday! (Sorry for the redeye!)We were able to round up the family to celebrate and have a birthday dinner and game night. Complete with a Fajita Feast, and a ROUSING game of Hand and Foot. Russell even joined in the game adventures! But it was fun to celebrate together.
Grant and Julia have a new addition to the family, our first Grand-dog, Cooper. He is a little ball of fluff, fun, and puppy breath! He is a maltese-poodle mix, and quite adorable.


And the Grand topper!!!! Grant and Julia have bought a home in Corona! A week ago Sunday, they found out that the house was theirs. Yesterday we were able to go see it and see them do some signing of official documents. We were nervous buying our first house, and I think I am just as nervous for my kids when they make that committment. A bit scary, but so amazing at the same time. Julia's Dad, Cole Warner, Russell and Skyler waiting out front...Cole did a little watering of the plants while we were waiting.
Grant is looking pleased with their new digs!

The new homeowners outside the front door with their agent, Lisa. This girl was so dynamic and worked so hard for Grant and Julia. Congratulations to our wonderful kids and all the great things happening in their lives!! We are SOOO excited that they are sinking roots in between the Warners and the Holmes, all in the same Stake!! It is going to be a great adventure.

Thanks for updating us on Julia and Grant. I knew they had put offers in but my Mom never told me if they got one or not. That is so exciting. I know you and Cole are so happy to have them close. Their puppy is so cute too. We saw it the night they got it. How fun.

Holy cow! I feel like I'm the only person on earth not buying a house or who doesn't have plans to anytime soon. Good for them though!

How is it that some of you are so lucky to have your kiddos live close by? I'm envious!

First homes are so exciting. Julia is beautiful. I have very brief memories of her at the Sants house when I was little.

I am so happy for you that your kiddies bought a house close by. They won't regret living by family!!

Congrats to Grant and Julia. How nice that they can get their own home at such a young age. I am very happy for them,

I love the way your family always plays games together. You've got to teach me some of them. They sound like too much fun.

Have a great week. Come visit me when you can. I have missed you.

Love, Lura
