The Lord has blessed us with the home of our dreams! During the long process with the short sale, this house came up for sale and we jumped at the opportunity to take a look at it. We did and after one month we were pending with the bank. We said sayonara to the short sale house and moved forward with this one. Exactly 1 1/2 months after we put our offer in we were able to move in.
The Lord's timing is mysterious, sometimes hard to be patient for, but always so worth it. This process has truly made me put my faith in the Lord into action and be patiently trusting to his timing and plans. Even though it took a long time, I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. This home we are in now is so absolutely perfect (to us) and we are so excited to be living in it. It is fun to get to know the house, the neighborhood, and the neighbors (still got to make our block rounds).
Here are a few pics of what our first week has looked like.
We lived out of boxes in our apartment for the last two weeks we were there. By the last week we had to drink out of old spaghetti jars because I packed all our glasses (oops!):
The day we signed the papers was an exciting one. Definitely second to our wedding day:
Our home!
Lavender in the front yard:
Unpacking..so many picture frames..

First big purchase - a lawn mower from Home Depot:
It has been a busy fun week! Honestly though, I've had so much fun with moving. It's been a blast making this place ours.
