Moved In!

Closing was a success. Quick, easy, and ultimately we paid less than we anticipated. We closed at 3:30 on Friday and only went back to the apt. to retrieve the essentials.

I haven't had a chance to update the blog because I've been unpacking (of course), but more importantly because I've been in awe of this beautiful home. I loooove my house. I'm just so thankful and appreciative of what God made possible. This home is everything we wanted: space, elegance, comfort, and NEW.

Summer's here and the boys will be in town starting next weekend. For the first summer e-v-e-r we won't be cramped and cranky -- we'll be spacious and smiling. Hallelujah! LOL

:-(

My heart is so heavy. It looks like we might have to wait up to 2 weeks to close. I'll know definitively tomorrow. If we do have to wait 2 weeks that means we need to change the dates on all of the utilities and be in this apt for another 2 weeks. My heart is so heavy....

UPDATED: We will be closing on time! I just gave it to God and he worked it out!

Almost Time!

This time next week we should be homeowners. Super excited and ready to decorate. I'll have to call my lovely and talented mother-in-law to help with the decorating because right about now I'M LOST!

Everything is moving along swiftly. The underwriters had a few questions; we answered, and closing is scheduled for May 21st. So much to do on the 21st: close on a home, pick my car up from the shop, court (for a silly silly ticket!), day before our anniversary, and hopefully I won't have to worry about a big proposal that's due on the 21st! Life's busy right now, but we like the action. :-)

Latest pics below. Nice and open. Perfect for entertaining. Yay!
