We bought a new home...TODAY!!!



We are ecstatic!!! I want to start by thanking GOD! He's been very good to us, also to all of our family and friends who helped us pray(you guys know who you are) After five and a half months of searching for the right home, we finally found it!! Or did we? Well, technically it doesn't exist yet. Our home will be built-to-order! Wow, I still can't believe it. We chose lot #44, a corner lot on a hill with a view of the mountains.

It is a 2 level home, 4 bedrooms 2 1/2 Baths. One room is downstairs (Emmanuel's home office), a restroom, living room, and kitchen. The upstairs has a loft, master bedroom with a walk-in closet and our bathroom as well. Two proportionately sized bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet to boot, and a laundry room! It's gorgeous!

We chose the layout today and tomorrow we'll be going to the show room to choose the color of the carpet, floor, doors, sink, cabinets and counter tops.

The house should be ready in about 4 months which means we're looking at an August - September time frame for move-in! Wow!


Our home is Lot #44




Here we are marking our territory...ha,ha,ha




We put the sold button on our spot.




Here is a collage of some of the pictures we took of the model home our home is based on.
