I’ve got some really exciting news:

My husband & I bought our first house!

We just closed on it Friday & are painting/renovating/moving over the next couple of weeks.

Can you tell we are excited???

The house doesn’t need too much work; we are basically just customizing it to our taste.

When we first found out that our offer had been accepted I said to my husband, “think of all the blog material I’ll have!”

Friday we mostly just sat in our new house & celebrated.

We pulled out the glasses from our wedding & popped some champagne!

Our realtor, who goes to our church, gave us that cute smiley face planter 🙂

Our friends were a big help to us over the weekend with painting & other tasks.

Beth & David gave us a sweet house warming present, inspired by the movie It’s A Wonderful Life.

We are still in awe of how much are blessed.

We are extremely thankful to God for his blessings on our lives, & we hope to fill our new home with his presence.
