The Hunt is Over!

I am so EXCITED! After a couple months of not having any luck on buying a home as first time home buyers, we found our perfect option - build! We are using a company called, Salisbury Homes and they produce beautiful homes. In our price range it was the same price for us to build as it was to buy so we couldn't turn down the offer. This home will truly be ours and we can't wait for it to be done in Mid-March. We absolutely love the neighborhood, Red Field Estates, and when we were choosing the lot we realized we knew the people in the next door lot, so we already know one of our neighbors!

We were going to wait a couple more weeks, but I realized that the house would be done during finals and that wouldn't be good at all. :) So, we jumped the gun and started this quick process.

Here is a sneak peak of everything:

Some of our inside options.
Stucco, rock, and roof.

One of the reps INSISTED that she take our
picture signing the paperwork.
I'm glad she was so persistent about it
because it will be a fun memory for us.

I've been a stress case this last couple of weeks with house hunting. I usually am such a deep sleeper, but the past nights I have had the hardest time falling asleep and I have woken up around at 4 am not being able to fall back asleep. My teeth have also hurt when I wake up because I grind my teeth when I'm stressed. Anyways, hopefully tonight I can sleep well!

These next couple months should go by fast with 18 credits, practicum assignments, plus work along with Brad's long hours at work and just the usual daily life :). So happy.
