We moved to Spokane last November. A day or two before Thanksgiving. It was a really exciting move for us. Weston started a new job and it was Holiday time. Who doesn't love holiday time? We wanted to move here and get settled before we started house hunting. But by December we couldn't help ourselves, we were on the hunt. We have always loved looking at houses together so we couldn't wait to buy our first house. Weston had talked about building a lot in the past. I wasn't so sure. And we had no idea that Spokane is right on the border of Idaho. Another decision. Live in Washington or Idaho? Weston was pretty excited about the chance to live in Idaho so that's where we kind of headed. I was looking all over. But one day I was driving all around and I found a neighborhood I loved. It just felt right you know? And it was in Idaho. Then we found another neighborhood close by. So we had two houses we were seriously looking at. Both were going to be new builds. We went back and forth every Saturday meeting with realtors trying to decided on these two houses. I was leaning towards one, Weston towards the other. We walked the dirt of both lots, anaylzed every corner I feel like. I just couldn't make up my mind. Then we put an offer in on one. In very short that's the house we ended up buying, but not before we put an offer in on another house. In the end it all worked out perfectly and we love the house we decided on. It has been so much fun watching it all take place. So our time in Spokane will be short lived but this move will only be 20 mins away and very long term (hopefully)!!!!
Lots of iphone pictures. Ugh, I always forget my camera
