Final Week & Move in Day

So here you have it, our 2499 sq ft. 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom home with a loft, mud room, computer nock and garage! This last week went really well. I love how everything has turned out. I wasn't sure about a few things at first, but as I get in and see it all together I think it looks great. Closing on a house is always nerve racking. You never know what extra surprises may pop up and they seem to have a fee for just about everything. Luckily everything went well and we even walked out of there with a lower interest rate then we were expecting. Maybe we will actually be able to afford the house after all. The last week was full of last minute little details, getting it cleaned and the walk through. Last minute things included shutters, and a decorative metal piece above the front window. The poor lady that cleaned the house spent 7 hours there.
Maybe someday I will have a picture of my house without an out house in front. For now I am calling it my extra bathroom.

Move-in day went fairly smoothly. We were so grateful for Jeremy's brother Jon and his family coming to help along with our friend Curtis and Jeremy's parents. They turned into lifesavers when Jeremy got the flu and couldn't help them anymore. They totally took over and got us all moved. Poor Jeremy couldn't stay out of the bathroom. It always so much more work then you anticipate, but we got it done and its fun to come home to this house.


We also had a little birthday celebration for Kylie with cake, ice cream and gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Felix and some of her cousins. Kylie was so excited. She can't enough of this celebrating thing.


She loves her new room and tells everyone its going to be painted PINK. I am not sure yet if she will actually wins out in the end.



Here is a sneak peak of a few of our rooms so far. I can't wait to get paint on the walls and get it decorated.


How do you like those blinds? They are our make shift ones until our real ones arrive.

I am also a proud owner of one of these babies. I am so excited. As we were leaving the title place after signing all the closing papers and said to Jeremy, "Yay we are now garage owners!!" We are stoked about that!
