We got a House!!!

Original post by RockysGirl

I'm sooo glad! FH's place is really tiny. It's perfect for a bachelor living on his own, but having the two of us in such close quarters made me a little nervous. There's literally nowhere to hide. lol. There was no counter space to prepare food, itty bitty bathroom (talk about claustrophobic), barely any closets, and absolutely no privacy from neighbors. Plus it's right across the street from a church and bar - and both are VERY noisy. lol.

So he ended up finding us a house in a really nice neighborhood. 2 bedrooms, huge kitchen & living room, big backyard, etc, etc, etc. The only drawback is that an old lady lived their before us, so you know what that means. Hideous colors. The bedroom and bathroom are literally pea green. Gross. That's the first thing to go. lol. But i'm just sooo happy!! I really didn't like the idea of me moving into 'his' place. I had been wanting us to start out fresh when we got married and move into a place that's 'ours'.

Anyhoo - just thought i'd share my excitement!!! When I get to Co and we begin fixing it up, i'm sure i'll post some pictures.

Congrats on Finding a house!!!!! YAY!!!!! What town are you gonna live in?

DH is still trying to find us a house! Right now we are living upstairs in his parent's home until he finds a house. Not the ideal living situation for a married couple but it's working. I love his family and think they are awesome, but I want us to be in our own home! I can't wait for this moment to happen!!!!

Congrats again about the finding a !!! So excited for you!!!

That's what my sister & BIL did for the first couple months after they got married. They didn't live with us long though, it was just until they found something they could afford. It was nice having them (we're a really close family).

As for me, the town isn't here on Long Island. I'm moving to Colorado with FH's family for the first year or two while he finishes up school. We'll be back in New York (or at least somewhere CLOSER pretty quick).

definitely! that was really important to me. I keep calling the apartment 'HIS place' and I feel like I always will, even after moving in. It'll be nice to move into a house that's 'OURS'
