New House

James and I bought our first home! It's pretty exciting. When we first moved to Idaho we thought we would live in our rental for a year and then buy a home once we got to know the area. However, when we realized how low the prices of houses and interest rates were we decided to buy a home sooner. We started looking at houses in September. We looked at TONS of homes. We had our requirements and we didn't want to settle. There was one house we made an offer on didn't get it. And a few others we were going to make offers on were gone by the first day of it being listed. Looking at houses 9 months pregnant was also...fun.

A week after Ellie was born we saw this house. Only downfall was it was a Short Sale. But it met all our requirements so we took a look and liked it. We put our offer in in December and we just closed this past week, April. In the end, it's been almost a full year since we've been in Idaho so I guess our Plan A was what ended up happening any how.

We are excited to make some changes to the home. Starting with the WHOLE interior being painted. I'll be sure to share before and after pictures. 

And, I'm pretty excited to finally set up a nursery for Ellie.
