new house!

WE GOT IT!

We put in an offer on a foreclosure over a week ago and found out today that it was accepted! It is our dream home...or at least it will be. We'll have to do some pretty major renovations, particularly to the kitchen. So I'm excited to take you all through the process of transforming our cooking/eating space in the new house, a la Young House Love style (without the amazing DIY-ness). Stay tuned for that...

While we waited to hear back about our offer, we kept saying that if we found out we got the house, we would celebrate. Initially, we were thinking a nice dinner out, a bottle of wine...but no. Instead, we went to vacation bible school at the church and picked up our special meal on the way home.

Nothing says "celebration" like an Oreo milkshake.

It wasn't much, but we were so excited we didn't care. Food doesn't seem to matter as much when you're on cloud nine. We've been giggling all afternoon...kind of like this guy:

Maybe, eventually, we'll get to have that nice dinner out to celebrate our new house. In the meantime, we'll just keep smiling as we think about our first meal in our new home.
