Home Owners Again!

I am so excited to announce, after 4 years of moving moving moving, that we are official home owners again! Yahoo! We are saying goodbye to our old Gypsy ways and have planted our roots in Auburn, WA. We bought a split level home and the big selling feature for me was the huge kitchen and double ovens.  Oh, and the view can't be beat either. The kids have been running around non stop in it with all the space. It's our first home with the kids. It's been so great so far and such a blessing for our family. 

We spent 3 long months waiting to get into the home. It was a grueling process to go thru... wouldn't recommend foreclosures to anyone unless the home is really worth it. We felt like this home was. We also never bought a foreclosure before so it was a definite learning process. Oh, and make sure you have a great realtor that will bend over backwards for you and not one that only txt and sends emails. ;) We'll never be using Century21 again... EVER! Whew! Glad I got that off my chest. 

I felt spoiled waking up our first morning to this sunrise off our back porch...

Here's a pic of us hanging out in the back. Not the best picture of all of us, but our first real photo together at the house, so I love it.
