September 15, 2006, we purchased our first home together. I had a townhouse in MN, which Steve moved into (and I moved back into after we got married) but it was so nice to go through the process of buying a house together. We still think of our house now as “Our First Place.” Here is a picture we took last winter (snow in OK? I thought we moved away from that!). We are blessed, for sure.
We even have a pond view from our backyard, and when the fountains run, it sounds like a spa! We don’t spend nearly enough time out there, though, and we need to…it’s so beautiful.
In some ways, it seems like it’s been forever since we moved here, but in others, it has gone so fast. As Steve starts his 2nd year of school, I am given the perspective that it will only get faster, as life tends to do. I hope that I can enjoy this time, rather than simply looking to “the next thing” which I am famous for! God has truly blessed us and I am not sure I always remember that.
Well, that’s my post for now…more to come! Happy Wednesday!!
