we did something scary on halloween 
however it wasn't the typical spooky halloweeny scare


we closed on our first house!!!
we felt like we kinda signed our life away after autographing about 40 pages 
but after spending some time at the new house over the weekend we are thrilled 
we are so excited to have a place of our own
our living space has at least doubled 
we couldn't be happier about living in sugarhouse close to so many things 
driving to work has been cut in half because of awesome freeway access 


we are planning on moving sometime in december 
we're having some work done on the house especially in the basement 
we are going to be renting it out so if you know anyone getting married over the holidays 
if they need a place to live ours will be brand spanking new and in a great location
let us know!

it's funny to think how much life changes 
in january sam and i made all of our goals together 
none of them included a house, the opposite to have 'x' amount saved 
needless to say i think we would have met our goal if something better hadn't come along 

we'll definitely have a house warming party most likely the first of the year 
so keep posted!

Hopefully dinner on Sunday wont be the last! We would love to have you back again.

Regarding the person interested in renting, she needs a place come December [which is quite soon]. Would that be possible?
