Creating our dreams

Time for a blog follow-up.

We are slowly moving forward trying to fulfill our house dream. Our plans are officially complete, as are all the upgrades to our new subdivision!

Now comes the biggest, and perhaps the most frightening part of this process, the talk with the bank.

A few years ago this would have been a walk in the park, but we all remember how that walk ended! We are all still dealing with those repercussions, though hopefully the worst is behind us! The banks hands are tied. So we roll up our blue prints, laying all our hopes on a few sheets of paper, gather our numbers and hand them over hoping the story the bank tells us is favorable.

I've already started picking out colors, tile, matching towels! Of course all of this is in my head, for now. But I'm crossing all fingers and toes that someday it will become a reality and we can move into the place we created--the place we will call home for a long time to come!

We've done all we can, now we need to see what will happen.

Hopefully we have our answer soon, those matching towels just went on sale!
