Our first home
It's a big day for the Fields family! It's a done deal- we closed on our house today. I've been tempted to write about the whole house-buying experience, but I knew my husband would want me to wait until it was a for sure thing. More pictures will come later. If I didn't have a million things to do right now, I'd photoshop that bruise off of my leg. This huge and unsightly bruise has prompted many questions like, "what the heck did you do to your leg?!" You'd think I'd know. That I would be scarred for life by an accident that would cause such an ugly mark. Nope. I have no clue. And sometimes I wonder why Sophie is so clumsy.
Special thanks to this nice lady (Bobby's mom). We couldn't have done it without her.
And to this little one. We could have done it without her, but it wouldn't have been nearly as fun. ;)
How the heck did I not know you were buying a house! I need to call you and we can play phone tag some more. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, I can't wait to see it! Do you feel so grown up now? :)
ReplyDeleteLove it! Brendon and Steph said you will be in their ward now too! So cute! Congratulations ;)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, how exciting! The grass is so green. It looks like a beautiful place to live. I can't wait to see it!! Congratulations!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! That is so exciting, we are so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see it.
Congrats! Can't wait for the pictures!
ReplyDeleteI also always find unknown bruises. One time I had a bruise down the entire length of my leg. But, I know where it came from: my boyfriend threw me in an ice cream bin at the grocery store--all in good fun, of course.
yeah!!! that is so awesome for you guys. buying was so scary for me, you'll have to email us your address. miss you!
ReplyDeleteThat is so exciting!!! Does that mean you won't be moving to Cali anytime soon? That is the only sad thing about it. I can barely even see the bruise. The shadow does a good job of hiding it :)
ReplyDeleteYea to home ownership! Congratulations. What a fun and exciting time. Hope your leg heals soon.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!! Don't forget I'm bringing dinner tomorrow. =)
ReplyDeleteCute kids... cute house!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats lady. How exciting to be purchasing a new home. I'm sure you'll be painting soon enough!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That is so super exciting! Can't wait to see more of the place.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!!!!! That is sooo soo exciting! I look forward to the day.....Can't wait to hear and see more!!
ReplyDeleteOh, regarding the bruise...I am the same way. Sometimes I remember....like the one I have on my leg right now....the bench at church just really got in the way!!!??!! The bench was fine though. Apparently I exited too soon? Duh. I am so clumsy too.
Congratulations on the house! How exciting!!!!
ReplyDeleteCOngratulations, that is so exciting for your family. It will be fun to see pictures of the inside, I am sure it will be so cute inside. You have great style!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! What a great house. I am jealous of that kind of grass. We don't grow that here. Have fun with all the organizing, arranging and unpacking that is to come. We've been in our house over 2 years and we're STILL not done.
