I cannot believe that we have finally moved into our very first home. Jason and I are beyond excited and extremely a tad bit overwhelmed. We have waited so long and have saved for so many years and it has finally come to fruition. If you can believe it, we put an offer on this house in July, the day before we left for BlogHer. We never knew it would take almost 4 months to close and move in. I have to say that there were times when I really doubted that the house was meant for us. I knew that buying a foreclosure would take more time than a straight sale, but never realized HOW long and what hoops we’d have to go through to make it happen. My amazingly patient husband was the one who encouraged me when I lost hope and wanted to give up the entire process.
Over the weekend we moved from a tiny one bedroom apartment to an almost 1400 square foot house. With new paint, carpet, and some cleaning we were ready to move in. All I can say is that I’m hoping we don’t move for a very, very long time! So, without further ado, here are some of the pictures from this weekend. Please bear in mind that we JUST moved in on Saturday so we are obviously in boxes and pretty much in a mess. Our son’s room is the worst. He’s never had so much room to play or throw his toys around.
BTW…I am a little behind on posting winners but don’t worry…I’ll be catching up in the next day or so since our spotty internet reception has been fixed! Enjoy!

Wow, congrats on the beautiful house! That’s our dream too, to one day own a home. Looks like you’ll have a lot more space from now on! I love the backyard as well.
WOW! What a beautiful home! Congratulations!
It looks beautiful! I hate moving too, and hope I never have to again. It will take a while to get things in order. I understand about moving into a bigger place. Last year we went from 800 sq ft to 2200 sq ft. I kept saying this place is just to big for me. But, you’ll get used to it. Congratulations!!!
I’m so happy for you!!!! The house is gorgeous! Hooray! The hard part is over, now you can enjoy YOUR house! 😀
Oh, my! It’s beautiful! I remember you mentioning the house at BlogHer – I didn’t realize this house was the same one you were talking about then. Congrats – it really is lovely.
The house looks awesome–congratulations!! And how great you guys have a yard for playing!
You are so blessed! We are still waiting for that house dream to come true 🙁
