New house!
 

Because it's a major life event for me and you guys are pretty much the only friends I have outside of family, I wanted to let you all know that I'm buying my first house! :party:

My wife and I have been looking for months and we've finally found it. It's not much of a house for some of you folk$, but it's fantastic for us. The best part is that it has wood floors for my son's new wheelchair (another exciting life event, as he's been needing it for a long time now). It also has a finished basement with a large room for my home office - r/c room.

I can't tell you how excited I am for it. Just thought I'd share. :party:

Anyway, look for me to be selling lots of R/C stuff soon to help with the down payment. I won't be selling everything of course, but I really need to lighten my collection anyway. With the new house payment, I won't be able to afford to fix broken cars anyway! :na:

Yeeeeee-ah!

Did I mention that it's right up against a mountain with tons of bashing spots?! Party!!!!

Looks really nice, congrats to you and the family.

Congrats

Congrats. Now get busy and make a track on the side of that mountain there and invite us over for a house warming party :party:.

nice house!

Looks great! when's the housewarming BBQ?

Dude that is an excellent house!! Congrats. That mountain looks great! After R/C I boulder or in New Orleans (since there are no boulders) I urban climb. I think you have a great home.

wow, that's a great first house!! i'd say it's probably better on average than most people's first homes!

i just bought a house 2 weeks ago (my first one too - mine's not nearly as nice as i bought it alone lol) and know about sacrificing r/c's. i thinned the herd down to just my xray xt8... :neutral:

anyhow, congrats! :yipi:

Yeah, that's very nice for a "first home". Heck its nicer than my 3rd house!

congrats on your new house man. love the front of the house...great deck and view!
and i see them mountains in the back......oh..the fun you will be having..videos coming soon i hope hehe

I'm buying mine alone too because my wife's only job is to take care of our two kids and spend the money I make. :-) I must admit that one of our kids needs a bit more attention than the other, so she has her work cut out for her. Fortunately I work from home, so I get to help out a lot with the kids as well.

Congrats, Clodmaxx, on buying your first home too!

We are scheduled to close the house on my 30th birthday, which is extra cool for me because it was always my goal. The house is pretty nice for a first home, but it's probably not as expensive as it looks because it's in Utah (cheap houses).

That would be way cool to have a housewarming party. It's too bad all you guys live far away!

Here's a pic of the new wheelchair with Wyatt(2 years old) and my wife, Bree. (Oh yeah, Wyatt got his wheelchair on his 2nd birthday, and that's why he's wearing that funny hat.)

You are blest. Great looking family.

Thanks, mkrusedc.

I guess I shouldn't leave out my daughter, Mia. She'll be 4 in August.

I do feel very blessed. We don't have everything we want, but we have everything we need and more. :yipi:

At 30 years old you have already "made it" if you realize that.:great:

Congrats on the Nice house man and great looking family you got there.

Beautiful wife, beautiful kids, beautiful house! What more does a man need? Very nice and congratulations!

Oh am I jealous!! :great::great::great:

That's pretty funny. I didn't actually title the pics though. They're straight off the MLS listing.

Thanks for all the congrats and compliments! You guys are making feel all funny inside. :lol:

Congrads on the new home. You have a beautiful family and home...best of luck to all of you!!!

Congrats man great looking house and a great time to buy, make nothing but $$ in the next few years. Great looking kids and hottie wife. Looks like you should take up parasailing with that mountian behind you ! Looks like you're all set ! well perhaps a Ferarri for icing on the cake :party: maybe wait till midlife crisis for that ! congrats and good luck

he still has another 10-15 years or so till the mid life crisis since most of who ive seen have them happened when their kids were almost or or just able to drive (guess its a big moment that makes them realize they are old) lol

just picking at all you old farts....didnt mean anything by it

Congratulation on your new home!, :yipi: that’s one hell of a first house, 2nd or third for that mater. You’ve got a beautiful family and I wish all the health and happiness for many years to come for all of you.. :yes:


Kulangflow
You did good, you should be very proud of yourself… :angel:


P.S.
My wife hasn’t had a job in 12 years so I know how hard it is on us to be the sole provider. Great job..:great:

Very nice house. I thought I did well with my first house, but it didn't look anything like yours. Hell thats nicer then my 2nd house too.

Congrats to you and your family.

Wow, nice house man, and nice wife too (tell her I said hi) :wink: Those mountains will definately make for a great bashing spot- good exercise too after dinner :yes:

Awesome house. If I had a shack at the bottom of a hill like that I would be happy. I'd be riding my mountain bike all over it. I used to live on a farm with 10s of thousands of acres covered in hills and trails which were great for riding. I miss being able to go for a ride outside my back door.

***psst kulangflow watch this guy. First he was after my daughter and now...***

Yikes! He even knows my address already because I shipped him his MMM!

Oh wait, he doesn't know my new address! :lol:

Gotta keep an eye on Neil, he is the professional bachelor, if you catch my drift!!!!!

Great looking family you have there, your kids look like they take after your wife (lucky them)! I am planning to start my family within the year...getting kinda anxious already!

Texas stole my post!!!! :intello:

ditto... kick arse house man!!!

Don't forget his nice rc collection :lol::intello:

Congrats on your new house. I still remember what it was like when we bought our first home too :party::party:.

OMG, that is one very large, nice house. Looks to be in one top location aswell, might have to get a brushless boat

Beautiful family, nice house and what a view!! Congrats dude!:party: With all the "new" work added to your list I Predict a little less r/cing in your future.:oh:

kulangflow - congrats to you on the house, the family, and the stay at home mom! It's tough, but as you know - worth it. My wife stays home with our kids too.

By the way, I noticed you're just south of Salt Lake. You should make a trip up to Boise sometime for one of our race days. Pretty good track, and always nice to have another brushless intruder to hang with :lol:

Nice place! nice located as well, judging from the pics! I love the space you guys have in the US compared to Holland.

What's up with your signature? Intimidating to say at least..

i believe it's from The Princess Bride. great movie, but yeah - it would seem like a weird statement if you didn't know the movie. :lol:

your wifes name is Bree...my daughters name is Aubree sometimes we call her Bree also

Yep, my signature is just a line from The Princess Bride. I guess it's only funny to those who are familiar with the movie. It's time for a new one anyway. I'll have to think of one.

My wife's full first name is Brianne, which is interesting because mine is Brian. Our birthdays are only 1 day apart too. I guess it was just meant to be. :-)

I guess we're a movie family because my son, Wyatt, is named after Wyatt Earp in "Tombstone" and my daughter, Mia, is named after Princess Mia in "Princess Diaries".

Nice!
 

Hey nice pile of bricks man. Yea the first house is an exciting event for sure. I still remember buying my first home in Hawaii and I was scared to death commiting to such a large amount of money. It all worked out great and now we have our tenth house in California and don't even live in the USA. You did great for your first one. Hopefully you will only go up from there. It is nice to have so many good things in your life. When you have a good safe home, and your family is happy nothing else does matter. Although playing with R/C s is a nice way to pass your free time. Especially if the kids enjoy it as well. Congrats and good luck with the rest of your life.:lol:
