HOME


Its official we are buying a house!!
We are so excited to move forward with our life together,
Breon's parents have been so kind to let us invade their basement for a year.
They are the best in-laws I could have ever asked for, they have been 
willing to help us with stuff that we need, and giving us a place to live while we
have been in the "limbo phase". 
Its been a great year but it had its rough spots and "limbo phase" was the hardest.
Breon was in the middle of jobs and I was looking for a new job and we had no money
we didn't know what direction life was going to take us.
Breon's parents have been lifesavers!
We
So the house...
We had looked for about a month before we found this house. We had gone out to see a lot of 
different houses, some were really nice and then there were some that we didn't even finish walking through because they were either in such bad shape on the inside, or they just weren't what we were looking for. Looking for a house was so much fun, but I am so thankful that we only had to look for about a month and then we found the house we wanted. 
We found this house, and before we even left Breon and I looked at each other and we had the same 
thought, we want this house! 
We came back to look at it again the same week, just to make sure that we still liked it, and to give it a closer look, and that night we put a bid on it.
When we put the bid on it, they said that they would let us know on Monday if we won the bid or not.
All weekend we prayed and did everything we could to try and keep our minds off the possibility that we might not win the bid. It felt like the longest weekend ever!! It was miserable!!
Our Realtor called us on Monday and said that we didn't get it! :(  We were both so sad and disappointed, we really loved the house and wanted it so bad, but at that point there's nothing we could do expect start looking for different houses. 
The next week we get a another call from our Realtor saying that we are now the #1 bidder, the person that won it backed out!!!
"WHAT?" we won the house!!!!!! 
That was an answer to our prays!  
That week Breon got a promotion at work, and I got a new job working a dermatology office, and we WON the house!
I know that our Heavenly Father watches over us, and answers our prays. We have been so blessed and are so thankful!
WHOOT WHOOT!!!
The Kitchen, it came with everything, so we didn't have to buy anything for the kitchen.
Thank goodness!

We wanted a picture with a sold sign, so we made one ourselves, since no where seems to carry one.



We are moving to Syracuse in the middle of April!

So excited to have a fenced in backyard! I'm excited to be able to go sit outside and enjoy the sun!
