We finally did it! We bought our very first house! We are so excited to be able to put down some roots here and stay in one place. We have a 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath, and it has 2 floors. I'm not originally from Texas, so looking for houses in Texas was strange for me-- no one has basements! Something to do with the soil, it moves too much.

John and I are also excited about making this place our own. We can paint, hang up pictures, do some landscaping, even do the odd construction project if we want to. So far we've spent most of our time and energy making the living room more comfortable for us.
Here's what the living room looked like when we bought the house:
We got hardwood floors, a rug, a couch, added a fake chimney with a TV and electric fireplace, and combined the two windows into one big one!

Forgive my photography skills. If John had taken these photos they would look amazing. :)
We are loving living here, the neighbors are nice and we love the people at church!
