Home Owners!!!

Everyone knows we have been looking for a home for the past year, and now that Connor is coming soon, we have been in house hunting overdrive. We had appointments to view homes last week and this weekend again. We were on our way to grab lunch in between appointments when we passed this neighborhood. I thought to myself, "That looks nice, but there is no way we can afford that." After looking through a list of homes that a realtor gave us, I told Ben that we just passed a neighborhood and there is a new home in there in our budget, so we called her back to go check it out. We looked at a good home in that neighborhood with the builder. but we would have preferred a bigger backyard and a few different appliances and things, so we started asking about building a new home. They had 1 large lot left, so we decided to price out an estimate with the upgrades. After adding in all the upgrades we wanted, we ended up still under budget. We talked and we both felt it fit us perfect and felt really right and good, so we decided to go ahead and go for it! We were approved and we picked out everything in our new home. We picked the brick, hardy, roof, counters, doors, tile, backsplash, carpet, cabinets, back porch, energy efficient windows, roof, walls, and so much more. The home is in a subdivision called Lakepointe which is a part of Villages of Cypress Lakes in Fairfield area. It is off Mueschke in between Spring Cypress and 290. We are very happy and excited to move in May! We cannot wait, and are very excited and blessed!!!
