Feels like home

Mike and I were house hunting this weekend. It was supposed to start Thursday night, but due to the snow our flight was canceled. We went out on Saturday night, attended the ward we thought we would be in for church on Sunday and drove around, met with our real estate agent on Monday morning and signed a contract Monday evening. I fell in love with this plan when we were researching it before we left. When we walked into the home we both just knew. It is actually too big for just us, but we wanted a guest bedroom and bathroom down stairs for guests (hint, hint!) My favorite things about the house are the mudroom (which Mike will have to build some cubbies and put hooks on the walls for back packs and coats and stuff), the laundry room is up stairs with all the bedrooms and the loft upstairs.

Here is our kitchen - we are getting wood in here (Mike knows how to negotiate well!)



This is our front foyer/living room. I am not quite sure what to do with it yet.



This is the loft area which will be the kids play room. I am really excited to have a common area upstairs. That was REALLY hard to find in Georgia with enough bedrooms. I guess we have too many kids! When we called to tell them about the new house Madison and Kason were most excited about it being a 2-story and the lot across the street is a common area, so you can see the trees. When we were driving around seeing what was around our new house it just felt like home. It is exciting and sad at the same time. All our family is here, but we are up for a new adventure!
