Our New Home





















We officially bought a house today!! We found a home that was a foreclosure and has been vacant for the past two years. We need to do some very minor repairs from some water that leaked cause the upstairs toilets cracked in the dead of winter. Basically replace some drywall and paint some walls. We got the keys handed to us at 3:00pm. We LOVE LOVE LOVE our home and can't wait to move into it. Jared and Elaine and their girls came over and we had a pizza party (pizza Friday) on a blanket in our dining room area. It was so fun to have our first visitors. We can't wait to show all of you our new home soon too. After the pizza party we cleaned up some drywall that was scattered all over the hardwood and then Jared and Brett took off a drywall panel off the ceiling in the kitchen to see if there was mold in the trusses. THERE IS NO MOLD!!! Yeah! We are so blessed. We can't wait to make this house our HOME! We are so excited.
