House Hunting & Happy.

It's kinda stressful looking for a home. Even more so when you want to buy the place, and you can't go see it because it's in another state, and theres only a few months more to spare... not even going to sugar coat it. How are you really supposed to love a house if you haven't seen it in person?! - you don't-  House hunting is equal parts overwhelming & exciting.. the closer it gets to make decisions, the more you start to panic internally, little details become the topic of conversation. Zillow images start to spin round and round in your mind. You get pickier. or okay, I do. Because lets face it my husband and I don't always see eye to eye when it comes down to "what's livable".
We have the same general taste, I would say.. if you can call what we have a taste- Whatever it is, I like it. I can't wait to colab with him on a place!! ^_^ Anyways.. Buying a house is a big thing! I don't want to get wrapped up in the stress of it all and forget about how grand & exciting it is! I will pray and believe that where ever we end up will be right, because it will be willed by something much greater than myself. I can rest at night  worry free, I trust in the plan. ... It's another adventure! I know without a doubt our little home is out there, even if it hasn't been listed yet. I'll do my part and check the market daily, but as far as spending all my time and energy on it, scrolling and scrolling. consumed by wishes and wanting.. I'm just going to let it go. Letting go and trusting God through it all. I refuse to let this new adventure burden this family. God knows whats up and I'm totally cool with that, I mean, He's done a pretty good job with my life this far!

We'll take our time and enjoy the process. We will take many trips to Lowe's and watch way too many DIY shows. We will daydream of demos & design, disagree about paint colors and without a doubt try to tackle a project way over our heads. We will absorb the experience.

You know you're an adult when Lowe's is the new hang out spot and you love it! hashtag not even mad.
 And lets be honest, when its been pouring rain all day, spending the day at Lowes picking out paint that you probably won't buy, to paint a room in a house that you probably won't live in, is therapy. I'm so thankful to have a husband who shares this passion with me.

Even though I do not know the outcome of this search, I pray, hope, wish - daily- for the space for us to roam and run  about. Being outside is important to Liberty and thats important to me. I want a light a bright home with space with good soil for a garden. I pray for privacy in a good neighborhood. I pray for wisdom and clarity when it comes down to making that final decision. But most of all, I pray the Lords will be done. 

 We will go confidently in the direction of our dreams.
