Life has been busy around here. Besides working 7 to 9 days at a time, we have been busy house hunting. Last week we went and looked at like 8 of them. I learned something in all of the house hunting...dont believe what you read about the houses or even the internet...go out and look at them. One house listed MINOR cosmetic damage. ..hello I dont think a skylight leaking causing water damage is minor, and then going down to the basement and seeing the ceiling hanging there is minor either. Another house we looked at emphasized it was family friendly... which it was not. First of all there was NO backyard and then the inside looked like it was straight out of the 50's including the very small rooms of the 50's. Beds were smaller back then, then they are now..this is definitely not the era of Ricky and Lucy I like my queen size bed and I like snuggling up with my honey at night. I could definitely not do the 2 twin beds in a room thing. Then with this house there was the garage. It was HUGE! Perfect for Rey and working on his cars but thats all there was to this house. So family friendly well if you plan on not seeing your honey for days at a time, then it was perfect..lol...

I found the house of my dreams. 4 bedrooms 2 1/2 baths pool, patio, garage, sandbox, deck it just had everything I was looking for. And then as I walked into the kitchen there on the radio under the counter..our song was playin..THEN by Brad Paisley. I was like eureka I found my house! We are going to look at a couple others but still at this moment its our top pick. As we walked through the house I could just imagine me and Rey and the kids living there. I have never had the opportunity to own a house and I cant wait. I see all these home improvement shows and I cant wait to dive into a house and make it our home, a reflection of our lives.

Its so funny its like all the pieces are there, now we just have to figure out how they will fit. Uggh I hate that part. I hate growing and changing. I wish there was a way we could just "be" or as my 11 year old says, just "chill". But God doesnt want us to chill, He wants us to grow and develop in Him. He is the vine, we are the branches.
