In June my grandmother was able to sell her house in Brenham & move in with us. It has been a transition for sure, but one I'm really grateful for. When she first moved in, we were living in a 1200 sq ft, 3 bedroom house - things were cramped! So we decided to start looking for a new place to live. We spent most of the month looking for another rent house, but we kept getting denied time after time. One night I was talking to our realtor & just threw it out there that maybe we should look at buying a house. 24 hours after that spark of an idea, we were pre-approved with a lender, found the house we wanted, and had put down earnest money! It's amazing how quickly things went... At the end of July we purchased our first home :)
We moved in on July 20th & (because I'm crazy) on August 12th we had Kaelynn's 1st birthday party here! It sure got my butt in gear with unpacking, but I seriously felt like an insane woman haha. We had such an amazing turn out from our friends and family. Kaelynn got lots of good stuff & it was awesome to have a place to accommodate everyone who wanted to come!

Things have been great for us in 2012. Up, down, around & through, we didn't miss our share of tough times, but in the end it has been an amazing journey. Having my baby be healthy & happy, my husband being loving & supporting...these are the things that win out in the end! Even though I'm not the best at blogging, I really hope I can start being more dedicated. I honestly don't want to have to refer to Facebook when I'm old to see what my life was about!!!
Till next time : )
