Houses

Steven and I are looking into the possibility of buying a home for our expanding family. Obviously this is a HUGE decision and we're not taking it lightly.

Steven has a friend in the mortgage industry that we are working on getting paperwork together for so we can at least see what we can be approved for.

We've been looking online at different homes in the metroplex and I'm getting so excited. I mean I might own a home soon!!! That is completely mind blowing! I mean seriously I was talking to my friend Becky about her wedding shower and bachelorette party and the possibilities of where we might have them. Then I had to take a step back and go "whoa hold up, let's wait on the bachelorette party for a location because I might have a house by then that we could use."

I've always wanted to live in a real house my entire life. I lived in trailers in my childhood, and apartments ever since. I want Alexis to have the ability to go in the backyard and play and be safe and have fun. I want her to have a room that she can decorate and that we can paint the walls and whatever else we decide to do.

Sometimes I feel like I'm dreaming and the rug is about the be ripped out from under me and then I wake up and find out none of this life is real.

This is the one we rally like: http://www.8008clarkstreet.com/default.aspx

  3. Emily I'll take that info. We're in the process of getting the financing, so we know what we have to work with.

    Kim, I know right! The only problem is it's a lot further from church and our friends. We've made a lot of new friends at church and I don't want to move further away from all that.
