my girls outside of a dream homeOur house hunting trip has come and gone. Now we wait...
I don't want to get ahead of myself, but we put in an offer on a house yesterday (not the one in the picture above) and I've already decorated each of the rooms in my head. Oh, and did I mention that I've already been to Lowe's and have in my possession all the paint chips for each room? You know, just in case. My palette is ready to go.
Waiting is sometimes difficult for me because I like knowing. I like to be certain of things, like the way I feel about my chocolate chip cookie recipe. It's the best ever and I'm certain of it. It makes me happy every time I bake them because they always turn out yummy. I can say this only because it's not really my recipe, but a friend's--otherwise I'd be bragging. :) But you know that feeling when you try a new recipe for the first time? You're a little excited, but a little nervous at the same time, because it might not turn out the way you expected? Maybe this isn't the best analogy, but that's what this whole putting in an offer thing feels like to me--exciting but scary.

So... you got it right? It's adorable!!! Fill us in and please pass on the choc chip cookie recipe! :)
It is the best analogy because I can always give praise for the cookie recipe knowing it isn't mine. We just had our first gathering for dinner at our new abode tonight. We prayed in a circle then sang Blest Be the Tie That Binds.
