home.

Over the weekend my heart burst into little, happy pieces all over the place. We got to spend a lot of our time at the new house and it was wonderful. Looking around and day dreaming about ideas that we have for the house and our future there just makes it all seem so real. Paint colors were picked and the plans are starting to come together now which is very exciting. It’s starting to feel more real every time I turn that key to open the front door. Honestly, it makes me want to do a little dance right now. I can't wait to share a lot of Before & After posts on my blog about making our house a home but until then here are a few of my favorite shots so far…

^^^ I can't wait to make this space all warm and cozy for our living space!

^^^ attempting the fun DIY project of sanding and staining our hardwoods!

^^^ hard working man... he makse me smile!

I know I have shared some love for the previous owners on a few posts before but over the weekend Pam, the former wife and Mom of the house, sealed the deal with the sweetest post on Facebook.

She said, “When we said our goodbyes to the house Wednesday late afternoon, we held hands in the garage and prayed for you guys and the years ahead of you building memories! God bless you and watch over you in these precious months before your wedding!”

My eyes filled with tears when I read her sweet words and I couldn’t help but feel so completely blessed with our new home. It does feel like home and I know that the Lord will take care of us here. Only four more months and I will be living life in this place with my husband. That feeling is such a happy feeling and I’m so thankful for it!
