A visit to the UP House

This weekend we took a trip to visit the UP house in Herriman, UT! It is part of the Utah Parade of Homes this year. The builders got permission from Disney to call it the “Up House”, and Disney bought the rights to the blueprints from them.  I heard that the builders just watched the movie tons of times and came up with the blueprints. Its done perfectly. It has a picture of Paradise Falls over the fireplace, the hose reel is the same in the front of the house, and I've heard that even the chimney’s bricks and roof shingles are laid down in the same pattern as the house from the movie. On the weekends they put balloons on the top of the house, and they even had Mr. Fredrickson and Russell sitting on the front porch for pictures. It was adorable!!

(Just a note, I stole some of these pics off the internet because when we got to the house I realized that my camera battery was almost dead and we left the memory card at home too). :( I was so bummed.

The nursery in the real house. The finished look also had white crib like the movie as well.

I really wish I had more pictures to show the rest of it. Obviously not all the rooms were shown in the movie so the builders just made what they assumed was correct. It was 3 floors, with an upstairs, and a basement. In the basement they had a theater room with the movie "UP" playing on it. It has 4 bedrooms, 2800 sq ft and is listed for sale at $399,900.

And here's the only 2 pics I got from Mike's phone:
