Finding our Home Sweet Home

As I am writing this entry I am waiting to be picked up by my fabulous realtor. Eric and I have been searching for our future home for 3 weeks now. It might only seem short to many people, but to us it has been a long journey. We fell in love with a home last weekend, but found out that someone else sent in an offer before we did. We have also seen countless homes, and none of them have been Brinkman worthy of living in.

We are going to see a home today, I have some good feelings about this one. We'll just have to wait and see. We will let you know the verdict later. Til then, have a wonderful Friday!

Happy Birthday Leslee

I wanted to give a shout out to my wonderful sister, Leslee. She turned 24 today and I am praying she has a wonderful day!! Love you Les!
