Home Owners?????

Ty and I are currently renting an apartment in Farmington. Because he just started a new job in July that is a commission paying job, we didn't think we would be able to buy a house for 2 more years. I was fine with staying in our apartment and accepted the fact that it would be a couple more years before we would get a home of our own. In probably the first week of November, Ty told me that we would be able to qualify for a loan and asked if I would be interested in starting a search for a house. For some reason, initially, I had zero interest in searching!! But obviously the idea of it wore off on me really quick! The next day, he text me and said "What do you think about buying a house in Stansbury Park?" Uhhhh.....I said "Do you have any idea where that is and how far away it is??" He told me that he had mapquested it and it was the exact same distance from Stansbury Park to his office as it is from Farmington to his office. After about a day, I warmed up to the idea and we just started looking at some homes online. The next week we went and looked at 4 houses. There was one we hadn't seen online but our realtor saw it and wanted to show it to us. It was the 2nd house we looked at. The first one we looked at was okay and I could picture us in it but I didn't love it. But I immediately fell in love with the 2nd home. I looked in 2 rooms and said "I love it." I really loved pretty much every single thing about the home and liked the feel of the neighborhood. We made an offer on the house the next day and then a day later we were under contract! We are scheduled to close on December 8th and planing on moving on December 10th! I'm so excited to have a home and to be able to paint/ decorate our baby's room however we want to! I don't have pictures, but will post some soon!
