Two years ago today, Eric and I were driving home from work, and I said to him, "I have been looking on the Internet, and I found this great house". First, I should say that I am not allowed to look on the Internet anymore because it scares Eric completely! Second, I expect Eric to say no to me with all my hair brained ideas (like houses and school!). He does not always come through for me in that regard! Anyway, when we got home, Eric did some number crunching and said I think we can do it. I was not expecting that result! Anyway, we were under contract for our house on January 10 after another contract on the house fell through and getting mortgage preapproval all in a very short time. Yes though, I did fall in love with our house from Internet pictures!
If you had told me a year ago, that we would GUT our house in November, I would have laughed my head off. We were just hoping to get new windows this year! I think this is the biggest project that has ever been done to get new windows.
So what does 2011 hold for us? Well, hopefully some time in February, we can move back home. But the rest will just continue this wild, crazy, fun, loving journey for us. I hope it is the same for all of you too.
