About a month ago, I tweeted : All I want for Christmas is a home. There, I said it.
Well… Christmas came early. :) After almost 4 grueling months of the rollercoaster ride of being approved/ denied/ possibly approved again, we finally got the green light from our lender and 24 hours later, were signing papers with a notary in Orlando (at my Mom’s house, to be exact!). The whole ordeal has been so surreal, and I don’t think it’s sunk in yet that this is OUR HOME and we’re officially Nashville residents. I’ve moved 11 times in the past 9 years, so I’m ready to put down “roots” and stick around for a loooooooong time!
This whole month has been such a whirlwind, and I’m honestly looking forward to unpacking the office and getting back to a normal work schedule after the holidays. I do apologize for the lack of blog updates, but we’ll be back on track soon, promise! Until then, Happy Christmas and Merry Hannukah to all our pals out there!
