The BIG move


When we returned from Uganda back in April I was still working full time at a bank that was super slow!  I mean so slow the only way I survived the day was by watching TV.  But more on the job thing later.  I would also look at houses for sale on Trulia.com.  We weren't planning on house hunting for another year, but I found a cute little place and showed it to Brett.  I figured he would just say “Oh, that’s nice” and ignore it as usual.  But he actually liked it!  He even looked through the pictures!

So, I called my dad, asked him what our next step would be and he hooked us up with a great Realtor!  Turns out the house I saw would not be the one for us, but our Realtor stuck it out with us and in 2 months we made an offer on the one that we live in now!


Ignore the awning.  We hate it.  And ignore the flower beds.  I don’t know much about gardening, but they are way over grown and I plan on fixing it next summer.

Anyways…Packing and moving out did not take as long as I thought it would.  We had an army of people helping us out!



And moving in didn't take long either!  



We thankfully don’t have many “big” projects to tackle.  Just some painting (which is not shown in above picture) and ripping up the carpet and deep cleaning.  These people were…hairy.  I find their hair everywhere!  Ew.

The bathtub still freaks me out too.  Any cleaners you suggest us using?  I would appreciate the help!  We've scrubbed it and used bleached on it, but I still am not pleased with it.  Help?

We are so excited to have our own space with a yard to mow and neighbors that talk to us and walls we can hang things on!  Beyond blessed is what we are!
