The long awaited date finally arrived! We closed on the house on the 5th and kind of started moving stuff in. We both took Friday off and got everything else in and actually were able to find the bed, put it together and sleep there! (Thanks mom and dad!) It was a lot of fun and so nice to be in. We had a very busy weekend but got most everything unpacked and organized. I was even able to talk Eric into hanging stuff for me. It actually look likes a home! We bought new living room furniture but it will not be here until around the 20th! So it is back to the good old banana chairs for a couple weeks. Oh well. Closing went really well and we were pleasantly surprised when the payment was a decent amount less than we were expecting. Whew!! Much better than MORE than you were expecting. I like to stress about every possible thing that I can so I was glad to get that all over and done with. No more phone calls from the mortgage lady, no more making sure everyone is paid and happy and no more keeping track of how much we have spent! I don't think Eric will know what to do when he gets home from work tonight and can actually just relax :) I am sure he will figure it out though.
I just wanted to really thank my family for letting us live with them for 7 months!! It helped us out so much! It is kind of weird to not be there anymore but we are only like a mile away so they will still see me often! But my family is the best and my mom did so much to help us. I really loved talking with my mom each night and just hanging out. But it is very nice to have our own place again and we are so excited. I love my family so much and appreciate them putting up with us!
We want to have a BBQ or something and have people over, but we should probably wait until we have somewhere for everyone to sit! I will try to post some pictures soon but again, I want to wait for my furniture:) Hopefully everyone is doing good, and we will talk to you later!!

YAY!!! I'm so excited for you!!!
Hurray for move-in day! Busy weekend...Ryan and Tasha Obray were tryin' to move into their house as well. We will for sure be there for the BBQ and not just for the food! Happy Homemaking!
congratulations! That's so exciting for you guys!
YEAH!!! It's so nice to have a place of your own. It's funny that the three people we knew building a house all moved in on the same weekend. You, Obrays, and Pam Norman. How funny! Congrats on the new house and being done with the stressful stuff!
