Since Michael found out that he was being deployed, there was always a silver lining - the money. We love the house that we love in, but we know that we want to have children, and although it is suitable for one kid...we have always knew that we would need a bigger house someday. I have always dreamed of building my dream house, and I don't know if Mike wanted to build a house, but he got dragged into that dream too. Anyway, we knew that with this deployment we would be able to save a lot of money and be able to have a nice down payment. To be honest, it is probably the only way we would ever be able to afford building a house.
We have looked around before, but I think we have finally found our 'dream' house. It has everything we want, and if it doesn't we can add least add it. It is in a very nice neighborhood, and close to our work. Surprisingly, my parents who are also looking for a house, may have found a house that they like in the neighborhood too! It would be nice to have them living close by. I know I loved having my Grandparents right across the street. I know there is still a long way to go in the deployment, and we have to sell our house first, but I can't help to start feeling very exciting about getting past this year apart, and really starting our life together! I will be sure to update on this subject in later posts!

We'll at least you have a good idea of where you want to live. That's probably the most important thing. We know where we would like to live but the houses there are sometimes stuck in the trendy styles of the late 70's and 80's. If you're going to build a house you are in a whole different scenerio. However, we might be in the same boat with the condition that some of the houses are in we considering. Just don't go trendy when you pick out colors for your home. I got a major hair cut...you'll have to check it out on Skype. Aside from that not to much going on here.
I think you should move North and live next to Michael and I!!! We could drink together every night. Tempting.....
And by the way...I like the 80's!
