We're Moving....

in with these guys!

Yup, it sounds crazy but we are excited about our new home for the next few months.

How did we decide on moving in with our friends? Well, a few months ago Jesse and I were talking about the future and our desire to own a home one day.  We met with a realtor and loan officer and realized that this could be a dream come true in the near future!  We began the house hunting process and fell in love with one of the first ones we saw.  We looked around some more but have continued to come back to that one. We have officially gone into escrow and are waiting for the appraisal and inspection to happen in order to move forward!  In the meantime, the lease on the house we are renting was coming up to renew and rather then sign again for another year we thought, let's downsize for a few months and save some more money while we wait to close escrow. So...that's what we're doing!

We absolutely love our friends, Steve and Jayna. Steve and I met freshmen year of college and have been friends ever since.  He and Jayna were married 6 months after Jesse and I and we have always lived within 5 minutes of them.  Jayna and I have become close friends; she literally held my hand during my delivery and was one of the first people Luke saw when he came out! We have dinner on a weekly basis, the boys golf together and Jayna and I try cooking new recipes (with her doing most of the cooking and me doing the tasting:).

We are very excited about owning a home soon and feel so grateful for the chance to continue to save in the meantime. This will be a great couple of months living with great friends!
