We're Moving!!

Big, big changes for our family. We are so excited about it. We officially signed and closed on our first home yesterday :) It has been a long ride, but glad we're here.
 
We've been talking about buying a house for a long time now and started looking this past fall. We looked at a lot of options online and in person but none of them were right. We then found an older home in North Salt Lake that had a lot of potential. We put an offer in on the house in mid December, we got the call just after Christmas that our offer was accepted! Then the fun began.
 
There is so much paperwork and little things that had to be done before we could close. It seemed like an endless process for a while. It was one thing after another-kind of made me feel like I was getting investigated for a crime! We got inspections on the house done, paperwork in, weighed our pros and cons and decided to move forward with it. We finally closed and got our keys yesterday.
 
The home is older, so there is A LOT of work that we need to do on the house. We are focusing on getting the upstairs complete before we move in: painting, tiling, replacing counters, re-doing cupboards, etc. It's a lot of work! Let's pray we get it done in time.
 
We're all so excited it's finally working out. The house is going to look great after we fix it up and it will be a great place for our family to grow. It's got a large back yard that B can run around in and in a quiet area. Once we're settled in, i'll have to invite you all over to party! ;)


Stay posted for some before & after pics!
