UPDATE!

Wow, its been 2 months since I posted and lots has changed since then. Last time I posted Caroline had just been born.I can't believe she's already almost 2 months old.

About 2 weeks before my last post we had put in an offer on a house in Mt. Olive and were working on getting everything agreed upon. The last 2 months have been nothing short of miserable. Everyone always says buying a house is stressful but I never imagined this. The sellers took our offer immediately but then after the inspection revealed a poorly done roof, we asked that they put a new roof on. Well, long story short, that roof has caused a lot of stress BUT they put the new roof on and we closed on the house today!

We are so excited and can't wait to begin our new life there! We thought we were going to be able to take possession of the house today but the sellers still have a few things there and are staying in the house for one more night. We will be able to start moving in Thursday morning. We already have keys too.  Zach and I are both so anxious. We have been living with my parents for 10 months and as grateful as we are, the whole situation was beginning to drive us crazy. Just living amongst someone else's things is hard in itself. Most of our belongings have been in storage since we moved back Alabama so we can never find anything we need. We don't really even remember what we have. A lot of our wedding gifts never got unpacked in Kansas. Unpacking is probably going to feel like Christmas morning :) Can't wait to move in!


Welcome to our humble abode on Memory Lane...
