The House

So Dave and I have been looking for a house for quit some time now. Back in October we found one, put an offer down, told everyone, and then had it fall through. Needless to say, we took a very different approach this time around. For instance we kept it a secret from everyone until it appraised. Keeping it a secret was really hard. Especially when people would ask "Are you looking for a house?" AAAHH I hate having to skirt around questions, so I apologized to everyone I gave the run around to. But it is finally happening! We are moving into a house. Things were just too perfect to pass up - the tax credits, rates, you name it - it was in our favor. We close on the 23rd and plan on moving in that weekend. Dave's Dad is even going to fly in and help because he is just as excited as we are (thanks Steve)!

Well here are the stats on the house:
4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths
2600 sq ft
2 stories
Room to grow!

It is located in Frisco, basically off of Legacy and Main. So that means Dave has a straight shot to work on the Tollway. (No more 635!!!!!)
I love the neighborhood. It has a community pool, park, and playground. Also the elementary school, high school, and church building are within walking distance!

We will be very sad to leave our ward. We love them so much. We will miss everyone! The time has just finally arrived for us to depart. We need to get out of apartments and into a house where Lucy can have a yard to play in and a room that is hers not also the storage closet, craft room, guest room!

Here are some pictures our realtor took:

There is a lot more to the house, but I thought if we put all the pictures on it would be excessive. If you want to see more you will just have to come on over! We love visitors!!

Congratulations on the house. It looks AMAZING with plenty of room to grow. I'm very excited for you guys, although it will be sad that you're not in the ward anymore--and you just came back to RS, too!

Horray for all the SPACE! It's just like night and day with these apartments and our two-inch closets. And I should have known y'all moved two minutes from IKEA- ha! What a perk. Can't wait to see the place when you're moved in.

Oh man! Wahoo! We are so excited for you guys! And SO jealous that it's already built and ready to move in. Our house isn't supposed to be done until September. Just thinking about that makes me want to scream but oh well. Now we totally need to come see you guys! Let's plan something or make our husbands plan something.

Congrats! The place looks great! If we ever take a vacation in your neck of the woods we will definately stop by! That is a really nice backyard too! Hows life by the way I havent talked to you in LONG time!

That looks SO NICE!!! I am excited for y'all! You are moving to the same town as one of my Best Friends from childhood. How many LDS wards are in Frisco? You might be in the same ward with her and her husband, she also has a 10 minth-old girl.
