BIG NEWS!

Eric and I are buying our first house!!!

I know it's no excuse for why I've been a bad blogger lately BUT we have been super busy with traveling for a wedding, searching for homes, traveling for Christmas ect... We didn't expect to find something so quickly but when we walked in we fell in love. It has a great open floor plan with cathedral ceilings and dark wood cabinets in the kitchen. Here are some pictures of our future home (assuming we don't have problems with the house inspection tomorrow) and NO this is not what the house looks like currently as there is at least a foot of snow on the yard and very large snow drifts in the backyard :-)

View of the living room...We really like the fireplace!

The kitchen...a little smaller than I would have liked BUT there is a lot of storage in the pantry!

Our dining area (I am standing in the living room as I take this picture) There is a sliding door that goes out to a patio area (that is currently covered in a snow drift)

The area just off the garage. There is a also a laundry room here.

Yeah for double sinks in the master bedroom.

The house is a 3 bed/2 bath with an unfinished basement (with potential for another bedroom to be added in the basement as there is a conforming window) here in Omaha. It is in the Elkhorn school district (which is good thing and makes the house more desirable for resale)

We are really excited for this new adventure and its sure to be a learning process.

Stay tuned for more house updates as well as more on life with the newlyweds.
