February 15th, 2018

We bought a house!! 🏡


2018 started out with a busy bang, keeping the two of us very much on our toes. With birthdays galore, my busiest semester at school, work, and a wedding to plan, it seemed almost impossible to also toss in the idea of trying to find a new home before our apartment lease was up at the end of March. But, of course, God always has a plan. 😊 

Originally, I thought His plan for us involved a fixer upper that Mike and I found and really just fell in love with. But when things didn’t work out in the end and another family got the place, I was absolutely crushed. Because, hadn’t THAT house been the plan?? It’s often said that when we make our own plans, God laughs. Because, chances are, He has something bigger and better in mind for us. As it turned out, there was another home just ten minutes from the last that was everything we wanted but more. It had no messy projects to work on right away—it was just a beautiful home ready to be moved right into. 

I am so thankful to everyone who has helped Mike and I throughout our house hunting process. We are so excited to close on our new house (which will be in mid March!) and even more excited to move in and make it our own. ☺️🏡💞
