Home Owners!

After completing the terribly long and frustrating process of trying to get qualified for a mortgage... We officially have our home here in Indiana! While Scott and I each previously owned our own house, this was the first house we picked out together. It was definitely a challenge to find a house we both liked (we definitely got a lesson in the art of compromise), but we did and are excited to make this new house our home.

Now the fun part begins. We're painting the house from top to bottom and trying to get carpets clean all before our furniture arrives in the next week or so. There is quite a bit of work to do but we are excited about all of the potential this house has. We'll be posting pictures of the before and after as we get projects completed.

I have to say I'm quite jealous of all the warm weather my Texas friends are receiving. Snow was still falling from the sky yesterday... I knew it would be colder in March but I definitely didn't expect for it to still be snowing!!  A big prayer request would be for some warmer weather, not just for my sake, but so the ground can dry up so we can get our septic system fixed. Until that is completed we won't be able to move into the house, and I think we are both ready to be done with hotel breakfasts!
