We Bought a House!

We bought a house!!! If you've been following my blog, you may know that we were on the hunt for a house last year. We got in contract with a house and had to back out at the last minute because we thought it was not the right time to buy due to my husband's Navy career on the line. Thankfully, he was approved to stay in the military because he picked up rank. A miracle! Especially because the clock was ticking and we were already making plans for civilian life. Well now that we know his career is stable again, we thought it was the perfect time to buy. We wanted to buy a house this summer that way we could get moved in and settled before the kids school year started. I was so excited when I found this house on realtor.com. It was the only house in our prime location with all the specifics we were looking for in our price range. My kids are now in the best school zoning in the city. We are just 5 minutes from base and right down the street from the boys school and our favorite parks. We closed on the house July 31 and moved in the very next day. Our new home is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage that comes with a big fenced in backyard. Our backyard has an amazing flower bed and 3 raised garden beds to plant veggies...something I've always wanted to try! Below are the pictures from the listing. Not our actual furniture, but gives you an idea of what our new home looks like. I actually like the house better with our furniture in it =)
