This makes it official! We are buying a house! I didn't want to tell anyone until our Buyer Option Sheet (pictured above) was approved, because once that's approved that means the builders start customizing our house and that it's definitely OUR house, and won't be going to someone else. I had taken Kristin down to see the house today, and while we were there the builder came in and taped this to the window. So of course we went over to see what it was, and were thrilled to see my name on it claiming the house! (sidenote: I am STOKED that I will be living on a street called "Dragonfly Lane"!!!!) Also, Mike was already on a plane when Kristin and I were there, so he doesn't know yet. So anyone who reads this post tonight will find out before him probably!Below is a picture of what our house looks like from the exterior (don't know why I couldn't get it bigger, sorry). It is a townhouse in a brand new community just off the freeway.
Since it's not even finished right now it looks like this. . .
. . .but after it's done it will look like this! (picture taken from the model home)
So YES to Bea, Chelsea, and to all others who have been trying to dig info out of me (or out of Kristin, for that matter). Yes, we are buying a house! More in the next post!
