HOUSE


Most of you have probably heard by now, but in case you haven't—we're buying a house! We looked at house for about 3 weeks, and made an offer on one that we loved, and a few nail-biting paperwork-filled weeks later, we are about to close on it. Next Friday, by the end of the day, we will be home owners! I have been holding back from getting TOO excited, because it seems like every time we move forward, something else STILL has to be done before we can really feel like we ARE GETTING the house. But the closing was scheduled today, so we're feeling pretty good about it!

The house is 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, split level, with a great yard in a great neighborhood. It has 2 fireplaces, hardwood floors upstairs, and basically is more than we ever expected to find. I'll try and get a few pictures up here very soon.

We have been so blessed, and have felt so protected and guided during this whole time. Everything has gone very smoothly so far (knock on wood) and we have had wonderful people helping us through the process. We are so thankful for that! And so excited to own our first home!

At Last - Vacation Photos!


Jason and I at the Branson Landing - we ate at a GREAT Mexican restaurant and watched the fountains!



Trying to get a picture of ourselves in front of the Dixie Stampede building. That show was one of my favorite parts of the trip!



Beautiful Branson at sunset



The Titanic museum at night - this museum was pretty cool, and featured a lot of rare artifacts and photos.
