Whirlwind

Well, life has been quite the whirlwind lately. My boyfriend and I had been talking about buying a house, but were never actually super serious about...

...that is until we thought we had found the absolute perfect house for us. 

We got super excited and started going through the pre-approval process and set up a showing with our realtor. Unfortunately, when my realtor went to set up the showing... we found out it had sold.

What a bummer!!! Not going to lie, I was quite sad. The pantry off of the kitchen was huge!!! We aren't even going to talk about the size of the walk in closets in the master bedroom... 

F R E A K I N G   A M A Z I N G!!!

However, we regrouped and my realtor sent over a list of a few homes to tour. In our minds we were dead set on the new build that we were going to look at. We already know we could get approved for the house, so why not go with the new build. After seeing the house, we were completely in "awe". We were both sure that nothing would top it....

...until we saw the second house. 

It was about 500 sq feet smaller and one less bathroom than the new build, but it just felt like home when you walked in. My boyfriend fell in love right away, but it took me a minute to get there. After comparing the pros and cons to both, I realized that it was the perfect house for us as well.  

That's when things started going like a whirlwind. Making offers, signing contracts, home inspections, appraisals. We are getting the fast track to home buying right now. My favorite part about moving is getting to get a new living room set and bedroom set. I've pretty much got free reign on the living room and bedroom. I can't wait to show you all our new house. 

...until then he's a sneak peek at our living room decor!! :)
