I've avoided blogging much about our home search so as not to jinx us or cause undue excitement. But I think I'm safe in announcing...that after much searching and 2 moves, and years of planning and saving, we got a house! Not just any house, OUR house. I took a little video with my iPod so show friends and family. (If you're neither of those then don't feel obligated to watch it)
Here it is!
Seriously, I'm a little jealous of myself. :)
What I mean is I never thought we could have gotten a home this nice. We feel so very blessed. It hasn't come without sacrifice. We lived in 1100 square ft for the last 4 years in our lovely little 1973 mushroom house. And I had to keep telling myself, "be grateful for what you have, you could be living in a grass hut with no running water!" We've loved our little home and have been so very grateful for the wonderful people we met and became such good friends with in our time there. In fact if we'd had more room we would have stayed longer. But this move has been a long time coming. It feels like we've been talking about it for years. Our patience paid off. We'll be moving in a couple weeks!
