It's official - We are homeowners!!!! This was by far the most hectic process I've ever been through, but it doesn't matter anymore. The papers are signed, we have the keys, and it's been posted all over facebook. The house is ours!
I don't know what we're going to do with ourselves, now that we have all of this room. I can't wait to shower in that huge walk-in, can't wait to see how our big pretty cowhide is going to look in the middle of the livingroom, and can't wait to fill up that big pantry so I can get to cooking again! This place will be perfect for entertaining. Oh the parties we will have...
I'm excited to get to meet our new neighbors as well. I've got lots of Pinterest-inspired gifts for the holidays running around in my mind that I plan to give out. Halloween can't come soon enough... can't wait to see trick-or-treaters running up and down the block.
It did make me a little sad when we met with the sellers for the closing. The little couple are both in their 80's and were moving to a new apartment complex because the house (and the yard) was getting to be too much for them to maintain.
The circle of life - no better way for me to explain it. They were once a young couple that made this house a home, while raising babies and grandbabies. I can only imagine the memories that family has made there. I'm so excited and anxious to start making our own, which we will start doing in a couple of days!
