Our new Kelso home

A lot of you have been asking for pictures of our new home. So here they are. We will add pictures to our blog after we have done some painting and putting in new light fixtures. We looked at over 25 different houses and this is the one. A very funny story though is this was the one house that I told Mike absolutely not. I first walked in and said a definite no. He actually really liked it and said to put it on his maybe list. But me NO WAY! After looking at all 25 houses I went home to Virginia and did lots of praying. This house kept coming back to me and I said ,"NO WAY!" But the prompting kept coming back and told me to go look at it again. I did. I drove all the way down and said MAYBE but it's not the one. I went home again and had the same prompting again. I went down a third time and said a pray in the house. This was the one. I can't tell you how strong the feeling came. Not in any of the other 24 houses did I feel this way. But I knew it was the one.

I only felt this way because it was HUGE but very plain and needed some work. We need to change out all the gold lights and fixtures and do lots of upgrades. But after I thought about it I grew very excited because of the size and the neighborhood is amazing. I love it! The house is also super amazing to be so big. We are coming from a 1740 Square foot house so this will be fun. It does not have a basement but I will get over it. About only 95% of the houses here in High Point do. But I can't wait to do some work and make it our new own home.

It will be fun to do some projects with Mike. Boy will he ever have a HUGE HONEY TO DO LIST! Yikes. I bet he just can't wait. No not really he loves to do projects with me and he is very good.

But take a look and we will show more pictures soon!
