A Beautiful Piece of Land

I just spent part of the weekend on the most beautiful piece of land in one of the most beautiful houses I have ever seen. Quarter Circle H Ranch, which consists of about 320 acres of property located in Mt. Carmel, Utah, is where this beautiful land and cabin are located. It is amazing!! The owners of this property are clients that I am working with and they invited me and a colleague to the property for a tour so we could fully grasp what we are working on. And let me tell you, I now fully grasp it. It is amazing. I just wish I could afford to buy some land there right now.
The lots are for sale, with the smallest lot being just over an acre and the largest lot being 2 and a half acres. The views are amazing! You purchase the bare land, which already has water, sewer, phone and power to it. Everything you could possibly need! Then you get to build your dream home. Dottie and Vern Ratzlaff, who own the property and are selling the lots, are such gracious hosts and would be amazing neighbors. The area is absolutely gorgeous and is only 30 minutes from Mt. Zion and an hour (give or take) to Panguitch Lake. I would love so badly to buy some land and build my dream home for my family there. It is so quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend this area to anyone looking for an area to build a log home and relax in the mountains. Anyone interested, give me a call!

The New Year

Hello all! I'm sorry it has been so long since I posted a blog. Things have been busy! I cannot believe that it is already 2009 and that in just a few short weeks my twins will be 2. Life sure has funny twists and turns in it.
It seems like one minute I was a kid in high school without a care in the world and the next minute I am a married woman with two almost 2 year-olds. It is amazing how responsibility can sneak up on a person so quickly!
I look at my two sweet babies and I fear that I might screw them up. When I raise my voice at them, I think I am a bad mom. Even though, most of the time when I'm raising my voice it is because they might hurt themselves, I still feel badly about it.
I just wish there were a handbook on raising kids that could outline every situation. That sure would make life a lot easier!
