New House!

June was a very busy month for me this year!  As I was preparing and packing for our cruise, Chip was out house shopping!  He called on Thursday afternoon before we were leaving on Saturday and asked if I would come out long enough to “look” at something.  So I headed out to a house about a mile and a half from where we lived at the time.  He met me at the door and asked if I’d ever want to move.  MOVE?  Are you crazy?  Never an option!  He told me if I liked this house, we would buy it.  Wait.  Buy a house?  Had we EVER talked about buying a new house?  Had we ever talked about moving?  Had we looked at ANY other houses?  No would be the answer to all of the above! 

Well, I was trying to focus and wrap my head around what he had just said as I entered the house.  One: the living room was great….Two: the kitchen was fabulous!  I told him that he’d better not be pulling my leg because I had just fallen in love.  I didn’t even need to see the rest of the house!  (It was pretty cool too!) 

Here are some pictures of what it looked like that day…New House June 17th, 2010 003

Ok…now after a couple of months of moving and decorating, I THINK we are completely moved in and settled. (Still no landscaping, but that will have to be later!)  Here’s what the house looks like now…

We are so blessed to get this new place.  I never thought I’d move, but I’m sure glad we did.  This is a wonderful place for Chip and I to grow old together!
