Home Sweet Home

Last year Ryan and I decided to sell his first condo and start our lives together in a new home! Well it didn't take us long to sell our condo, actually a nice lady bought it about a month after we put it up on the market. :) Thank you lady for taking that place off our hands. :)

So Ryan and I moved in with his mom while we found a place of our own. We lived there for about 5 months. The hardest part was the commute to work, since we were all the way out in Magna and we both work in Bluffdale it took us about 45 minutes to get to work. Sucky for us during the winter because that would take longer! But thank you to his mom for letting us stay with her for awhile.

So we starting looking for a place to call home. If we had the day off work we were out looking at houses. If we weren't hanging out with family and friends we were looking at houses! Our poor realitor took us to see....this is no joke when I say this....76 houses! Yes that's right 76 houses!!! This was the one we fell in love with, the one we could picture ourselves in. The one we could picture our pictures on the wall in. It was just PERFECT!!!!! We put the offer on it and about a month later we got the keys to our house. Ryan took the day off work to start the cleaning and allow us to move in that night. We were lucky because we closed on a Thursday and then Friday we got keys to the house. Which means that Ryan and I went to pick up our bed and clothes for the night and slept in our very first home for the first night. We are so happy in our little place we love it very much and are slowing working on fixing things up.
