March Madness

Well I have no clue about basketball or who is playing but in our house it has been madness!

Sailor was able to receive new orders that will have us moving to North Charleston SC. We are very excited for this move and have been preparing for it for a year now!

We decided since we will be there for a couple years that we would buy a house.

So we took a weekend and went looking!

 We had 7 houses lined up for the first day and found that we liked a few but that Sailor and I could not agree on one.  It was a long day and the kids did really good. Lil' Miss slept in the car for 2 of them and Lil' Man's patience with us ran out and he ended up watching a movie in the van for the last 2 houses. We felt defeated not being able to agree.
The second day we decided to see some new build houses and one other house.  Both in neighborhoods we really liked and wanted to be in.  The new builds held a great opportunity to have everything just how we wanted but it was at the top of our budget. All the other houses there was something that was going to have to be done to make it fit our needs and add to our costs as well.
So after talking to each other and praying about it, Hubby and I decided that a new build would be our best option.
We loved all the features of the house and like I said the neighborhood was exactly where we want to be. Since we're military it'll also be a good home to resale.
It is twice as much space then we have now and well I'm pretty sure we can fill it up with no problem!

We have been able to choose some of the features and watch the progress of our home.

Now we just cross our fingers and praying that it gets done in our time limit and 

we can finally start the next chapter.

After the hard work of looking for a house we got to enjoy some 

great friends and Downtown Charleston!

We'll be moving this summer and we are very excited to have a new adventure and share some of our favorite places with our kids and extended family.  Thankfully it is also going to be a lot closer to my parents and sister so we'll be able to visit a little more often.
