I finally have a little extra time on my hands and plan to devote a little of that time to this wonderful blog. Since the last post in January a lot has happened, like, we bought a house! I never thought i would be a home owner at 23, but Mike and I fell into a great deal we just couldn’t pass up. Two days before Christmas this past year we talked to our realtor and within hours made an offer on a home that we had never seen, except for a snow covered poured foundation, and a floor plan drawing.
Looking back it was quite the whirlwind and I hoped we had done the right thing, this deal seemed too good to be true, and John Mayhew always says if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. We spent the holidays excited and nervous about a new house that was going to be built just for us. But, it wasn’t too good to be true, besides the stress of being a first time home buyer, getting a loan which we would have went through no matter what, we now have the perfect little custom home. We love it and consider ourselves sooooo lucky that this once in a lifetime chance found its way to us.
Since the house was yet to be built we were able to choose exactly what we wanted on the inside and outside of the house. It was really fun! From the cabinet color, to flooring and countertops, orange peel ceilings, light fixtures, faucets, you name it we got to choose it. There are some in progress pictures below. Stay tuned for interior pictures with decorating underway.
