Friday Favorites

   This month has been full of great things so I thought I would take a moment and reflect on my favorites. It is easy to get caught in a hard moment and forget all of the wonderful things that are going on in your life. This month has had some ups and downs for sure. A down is that my great grandma died (she was 97), while that was sad it also made me remember my grandma and my aunt who have died and that made me sadder because I did not get to spend nearly enough time with them. My great grandma though had not seen her husband in twenty years, 2 daughters in many years, as well as her siblings and parents, she got to see them again in the most glorious of places and I know she is happy there and it was her time to go, so I am glad she has gone home. 

Buying a House!

   Hubby and I have been looking for a house on and off these last few months since he was told that for work he would be staying here for the foreseeable future. We would get excited then freak out and worry that we weren’t ready, didn’t think we would be able to pay the down payment and still have money in the bank. Well, last week we decided we were ready and could do it financially, we had three houses that we really wanted to see so we called a loan company got pre-approved and went and found a realtor.  That was Monday of last week, we saw 3 houses that night and 5 the next day, none of which were the three that had started this whole thing. The last house scheduled Tuesday was laid out differently than the majority of the others that we saw. It was perfect. And we hadn’t been there 10 minutes and I said I was home. You know that feeling when you just know something is right, it’s pretty much the same feeling I had about my Hubby after only 4 months of dating, when you know you know and that is the end of it. Luckily he loved it too.
