Tonight

Tonight we are watching 2 boys and they are so cute however they have never stayed away from home and we are the lucky ones to break them in. The younger one 5 months did ok going to bed but the 3 year old is not taking it well. He cried for a while and then dev now is watching tv with him to get him to fall asleep but so far no luck. They are the first kids to stay the night at our new home. So fun.

Update!!!

Ok so we have been so buzzy doing little things but it all adds up! I have been slacking on my blog and sorry about that. Life is great we got married August 14th in CDA and we are having a wedding reception in our new home on November 6th. A fall themed party sounds like so much fun, getting both familys together for the first time and having great food should be great. So excited. We have done so much the past few months, finishing the house a little more each day, working a lot to make the payment and just enjoying life.

We also have been visiting a lot of friends this weekend we are going to see what it is like to have 2 boys. We are watching them for a friend one (Ryan) is 3 and the other (Matthew) is 5 months so this should be so fun. We LOVE kids and so we are both looking forward to watching them. We had a wonderful birthday season (September is our family's birthday month) and now on to planning a reception and then the holidays. So excited to have them in our new home. We can't wait. Well thats about it for now!

THE projects…..

OH how the projects never end. But they are entertaining while the time goes by. So far in our new house we have: remodeled the bathroom, painted the basement stair case, did some major landscaping and so much more. It feels so good to know that anything you do, you do it for your own house not for some landlord. Right! Well anyway we are loving our new house and can't wait to show it off. P.s We are having a civil ceremony on Aug 14th and we are getting married but don'w worry we are having a nice reception new summer to give people notice. But we are pretty much already married so why wait! Keep on loving.

YEAH

So we officially are home owners and will have keys in hand tonight at 4:45!!!!!! We are both so excited and want to give back to the amazing people that helped us through the rough times and those who were there when the water was deep. SO many people tho where do I start? : )

New!

I Got a new hair cut by one of Danielle's friends Casey! I love it. I got like 5 inches cut off. It looks cute!

Life's hardest moments.

So Devon and I have looked for a house for a LONG time since January. Let me tell you it has taken its tole. This has been the hardest thing we have ever endured. Now towards the end of things, we have both learned so many important things that we would have never know in life without this experience. What a journey, we have gone through 6 banks turning us down for: job history, credit scores, current loans, and of corse $$$! But we found a broker and she is amazing, she has bent of backwards for us, she said that she was adopting us. In the beginning we were referred to a realtor and she to is great too. We have met some really nice people along our 6 month journey, and honestly they were our inspiration and they kept us moving on. Thanks to them we are where we are now. It has been a roller coaster from day one, finding your "dream house" and loosing your dream house, finding a better home for the future and almost loosing hope and giving up. Requesting help from friends and then all the sudden things start crumbling around you and all you can think of is "why did I drag these people into this with me" but then, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel, and you think "wow, it says a lot when someone is willing to risk their ass for you" and you feel good that you are including them in your adventure. We love it we hate it and we are so in love. Love is our hand to hold and our purpose for waking in the morning! Never give up on what your dream is even if there seems to be no way, if there is a will the IS a way!
