so we have a house :)

I won't even apologize for our slacker-ness anymore. It's really Justin's fault, not mine. He's supposed to be in charge of this blog!!



So to those that didn't know, we've finally moved to Oregon at the beginning of May, after Justin has successfully completed ALL of the classes required for graduation. Yay for Justin. I was pretty proud of him for finishing an online biology class in 36 hours (sleeping time included!) and got a pretty good grade in it too.

After we moved here we stayed at Jami's house for 4 weeks, I think Jami was happy when we finally moved out :))) It was really fun for us, and I think Kai missed seeing his cousins everyday after we moved out.

However, we did find a house that we absolutely fell in love with that had everything we'd wanted and then some. It was only the 9th or 10th house we saw, and we almost didn't give it a chance because the photos posted online were not impressive(to say the least). But I (the smarter one) saw potential from those photos, and our realtor took us to see it. And the rest is history. The offer went through, the loan got approved fast and at an incredibly low rate, house inspection was great, we closed on the house within 25 days of putting in the offer. We really believed it was meant to be.

So the house is 2300 sqft, 4 bdrms and a bonus room, great room and dinning room, tandem 3-car garage, on a little lot of 0.12 acres... so plenty of room for now if anyone wants to come and visit!! ;) Especially now we've painted over the ugly burnt-orange and moss green that used to be downstairs, hopefully it'll be a little more pleasing to the eyes of our guests.

That's really it for now... we are trying to save up for many things at once to beautify our house... but doing so at a very slow rate so our house might seem empty for a while... but it's ok :) we are just happy to have a house.
