5 months of looking and we finally found a house! If all goes well, we should be in our new house by the beginning of November. We are very excited.
Its 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 family rooms, eat in kitchen, formal dining room, nice big basement, rough in for another bathroom in the basement and a door that leads outside down there, 1965sq ft of space. The yard is lovely and has a super duper party deck! We even get to keep that neato entertainment center you see in the video below and the hammock out in the yard (thanks Pete!). Adam wishes the TV came with the entertainment center. Might have to get something fun to fill in the missing TV space. ;) YES, I AM BRAGGING, I AM EXCITED!
It does need some work to be done before we move in. We are going to paint the red walls in the living room a lighter color to brighten up the room and tile both of the bathrooms. The bathroom upstairs has carpet! Ewwww! We do have to make some changes to the railing on the stairs since the slats are a little too far apart and Maren can fit her head through them. Shouldn't be too hard though, I have an idea for that. Then we will take our time doing some other little updates here and there.
I forgot to tape a bunch of areas in the video, but at least you get the idea. Don't mind the mindless chatter on it either. :)
Whaddya think?

House ramblings from the other side
Its been 4 months and we still can't find a house to buy or build. Very frustrating! Perhaps we are not meant to have a house here? (wink wink Rachel)
We have all the time in the world to find a house I suppose. I think I have set my goals too high and the houses here are nothing like the houses in Texas.
We stay busy looking at one meeeellion homes on open house Sundays. We visit a few with our realtor (hi Pete!) and he probably thinks we are nuts who will never buy a house.
The Olympics rock and school starts next week!
I've been lacking on my photo taking lately. I need to take some pictures again.
Find me a house please?
