Can you believe it? I still can't. We often find ourselves whispering to each other. "Guess what?" "What?" He says. "We're gonna have a HOUSE!!" I'll say. Then we just smile and act all giddy.
This process of deciding to build our dream home has not been easy but I believe in the end it will all be worth it. The tight quarters we are living in right now has most certainly made use appreciate the desire and need of space for our sanity. There is nothing like sharing a cramped bathroom space every morning making getting ready in the mornings "entertaining" to say the least.
I also must admit I have learned a lot about myself living with my mother in law. I for one have learned to be patient. This is not an easy task for me. I also have learned to let it go. Little things that normally would drive me insane I just brush aside and tell myself this is temporary. Most of my friends don't understand how Aaron and I have managed but to be honest, it's really not that bad. We are just taking everything day by day, and one step at a time. Mostly we are just grateful that his mom opened her home to us so that we can make our dream come true and for that we are most thankful and blessed.
This week we drop off our chunk of earnest money to get the ball rolling on everything from the house steak out to our color appointment, which I'm looking most forward too.
Seems everything is smooth sailing so far. I have to admit I think dad had a little say to the man upstairs for this amazing opportunity to build our house and for that I am thankful everyday.
Stay tuned for whats to come!!
