It's All Ours

The papers have been signed.

The money has been transferred.

The key exchanged.


We are now homeowners.


I feel like I just need to let that sink in. Seriously. We own our first home.

Well, technically, the bank owns it, but it's nice that they still let us call it ours. :)

Our first home.

I just can't even begin to imagine the memories and stories we'll have and create in this first house. It's exciting. It's fun. It's a time to dream and plan and hope and wish and work together on something that is ours. Oh, it's just so exciting. We can't wait to see how God expands our ministry, both in our family as well as the opportunities we'll have to welcome people into our home.

I'll post more pictures once it's empty and we are moving in.

We move next Saturday.

Dang. We own a home.

Are you going to keep the colors for your kitchen? I was wondering how you were thinking of decorating - traditional, contemporary, and what your colors are.
