we are buying a house!

this post has been a looooooooooooooooooong time coming. aaron and i have been searching and looking and paying down debt for months to get ready for this purchase. after christmas we were even dead set on moving home. however, we both have good jobs, solid incomes, little debt and decided that we needed to wait for the economy to get better before we both attempt to find new jobs in another state.

so, we are buying a house. its a cute little house that was built in 1956. the neighborhood is called magnolia park and it is about 2 miles from my office and about the same distance from aaron's. the best part is, daniel and e and ed and abby both live with in walking distance from house! basically we will all be living in the same neighborhood

there is a big back yard for dixie and rex. after our year and half, living in a social experiment, in the heat of downtown savannah, they deserve a nice, peaceful backyard. there is a garage for aaron and a nice sized kitchen for me. while it will need some updating, i know we will have a great time doing it. i can't wait for our first backyard party...i already have the menu planned! we love to have people over but we can't really do it where we live now and lately we would be keeping our fingers crossed the whole time people are over that no one starts a riot in the street!

here are some photos of the new house...i will post more on monday! keep your fingers crossed that the inspection is clean!
