As you guys already know, Shae and I have been house hunting. We had looked at 3 or 4 houses and the last one we looked at ended up being the one! It was between this house and the very first one we looked at and ultimately it came down to commute being shorter for the both of us when it came to work and school. This house is 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, has a huge garage, has a security system, a wood-burning fire place (yay!), TONS of storage space, ceramic tile flooring throughout, a huge fenced in back yard, and is just perfect for us.

The outside of our cute house!


My cute car in our driveway and a little glimpse at our neighborhood. I hate the brown grass here. Take me back to Oregon where it's green everywhere!


The view of our front patio, outdoor table set and our front door. I love the brick. Makes me want to hang up white lights and make it look magical out here!


This is our kitchen and is the only con of the entire place. But I had to compromise. I can live with an old stove and smaller kitchen. The great thing is, we have storage space in the garage as well as a pantry. I was way too excited about the pantry you guys. Also, I love that we have an island.


This is our dining room. Our kitchen, dining room and living room all have ceramic tile flooring. Which I am excited about. This dining room is much bigger then the picture lets it off to be.


Here is Shae in the living room. He was checking out the fireplace and mantel. Omg, so excited to hang stockings up over the fireplace for the holidays (can you tell I love the holidays?).


I'm not sure what you call this sort of floor plan, but our sink is in a hallway in our master bedroom and then our shower and toilet are their own room. I actually really like how it set up in our HUGE room.    I am a crazy person and didn't get any pictures of the bedrooms or backyard. Seriously who am I? Anyway, the master bedroom is huge and has also has a huge walk in closet (my eyes were full of hearts when I saw it) and has a huge regular closet as well. The second spare bedroom is just as ginormous as the master bedroom (minus the master bathroom), with a huge closet it in. The third spare bedroom is about half the size as the other two but also has the huge closet it.

Shae and I love this house. It's almost 1400sq feet and that is a perfect size for us considering it is just the two of us. As soon as we left we went and applied for it and found out two days later we were approved. We sign our lease for it this coming week and move in April 4th (Easter weekend). We were both doing a happy dance when I got the email. :)

Some plans I have in mind for the house are:
2nd spare bedroom:Shae's mancave as well as guest room. We plan on getting a futon for guests to sleep if need be. Shae has his own plans for this room and I'm letting him tackle it how he wants, as long as he can store the crap ton of army stuff in there, I will be happy. If it so happens we have kids during the time we are here this will probably turn into a nursery.

3rd spare bedroom: This will be my office. I have so many plans for this. I'm trying to decide on getting a vanity or getting a regular computer desk and just using the ginormous gold mirror I have. I'm also trying to decide on a pink, gold and white color scheme, or a mint, gold and white color scheme. 

Hanging lights outside. I might not do this outside in the front just because it might look funny but I am definitely doing it right outside our side door. There is a small patio with brick and we plan on putting a BBQ out there and I am most definitely hanging some fairy lights out there.

Grey and yellow color scheme in the living room. I'm not sure if we can paint the interior at all, and if we can't then so be it but if we can oh man, I'm going to go HAM with the painting. Haha.

We plan on getting a new kitchen table, possible an island for the kitchen and a sectional for the living room. I can't wait to move in and get started on our new home. We are really hoping to live there for the rest of the time we are here at Fort Bragg.
