home

Even though it was just ANOTHER task, house hunting really was so much fun.

a) I was so over living in a 600 sq ft apartment.
b) It's awesome to see different houses, even though most we saw in our price range were...at best, interesting and at worst, horrifying.
c) My sissy Shannon was our real estate agent and was tons of help.

Shannon and her friend Kevin started a real estate business creatively named findwell. findwell not only gives amazing service and great advice to their clients, they also refund half of their commission! Shannon helped us find the. perfect. house. Here's our baby!
There I am on the deck in the back:
The day we found out we were getting the house was July 19. The following month was spent identifying which feature of the house was our current favorite feature...Feature of the Day. Several Features of the Day included:
-glass-front cabinets
-real fireplace
-surround-sound wiring
-the fact that you can only see trees from our deck
-low maintenance yard
-recessed lighting
-move-in ready
-creek in the backyard

and...drum roll please...

Space for a CRAFT ROOM! Proof that Jamie really does love me.

We were really lucky to find our house. We still love it as much as when we first moved in. Often still heard about every other day: "I love our house..."

I dream of one day escaping this tiny apartment...

LOVE that walkway! The brick steps!

Congrats on the happy home (:

Glad the house worked out for you and Jamie and glad that we were able to help!

I love your house too! Don't forget the "saloon-style bathroom doors" or the "mini kitchen in master bedroom" features of the day!
