It's Official!

We're homeowners! 

After signing what seemed like a book's worth of pages, our realtor gave us our keys and a present for officially closing on the house (it turned out to be a cake stand.) There is still a bit of work that needs to be done on the house like sodding both yards and finishing the landscaping, but we were told after all that is done, our house is going to look like the White House. Apparently we have 90 plants going into our front yard. I just hope that my green thumb magically sprouts and I don't kill this garden. 

We've also settled on appliances finally. Our dishwasher, range and stove/microwave combo were included in the house, but we have to buy a refrigerator and washer/dryer. Since Keegan works for a company that supplies Whirlpool with its steel, we get a discount on the appliances we need! We have to order them through his work, and get them delivered, so we're going to do that on Monday when he can up his credit card limit. Hopefully they'll be delivered sooner than later.

I don't think I've ever been so excited to do laundry or buy groceries before! 

Now we have one week to pack up our entire apartment and move next Saturday. Technically we told our apartment landlord that we won't be out until the end of February, but next weekend is when we can get some of the guys from Keegan's work to help us out, and we need all the help we can get. I really don't want to move our couches and beds by ourselves again like when we moved down here in May.

Ready! Set! Pack!
