Where to start?

I guess we will start with the latest event which was Halloween. It was a pretty chill evening. We went to a Halloween party/mock wedding at some good friends of ours house. I went as Pumpkin Pi and Brandon went as dryer lint. It was cheap, cute and clever. We spent some time with good friends. (sorry no pictures...i forgot my camera) In the mock wedding the guy dressed as the bride and the woman dressed as the groom. Then they had a friend dress as a fryer to give a short/fake ceremony. It was super entertaining.

Sunday, we decided to start hardcore packing. For those of you whom this concerns we are in the process of buying our first house. So, we are in the mode of packing and seeing just how much STUFF we have accumulated. Then we decided to go and visit one of our good friends Corey. He had an accident with hot oil and had 2nd and 3rd degree burns on a third of his body. He is in good spirits but in a lot of pain still. Please give a prayer for him to get well soon. All in all it was a fun/productive weekend.

Now on to the latest news on the house.
We are in the process of buying a house in Vermillion, SD. That is where Brandon works and since he works 12 months out of the year and I only work 9 it made the most sense to live there. We started our search about 2 months ago and looked at around 15 houses. Finally, we found a great house!
It's a 1913 Craftsman style house, four bedroom 2.5 bath. It was moved on to a brand new foundation. It is a block away from the courthouse/police department and a few blocks from one of the elementary in Vermillion. I'm starting to get annoyed of all the waiting for this house. It seems like we started "buying" this house forever ago. So much work goes into being a grown up. It better be worth it! I will post pictures when we are finally in the house. So, if you are reading this please send up a little prayer on our behalf.
God only gives us what we can handle. I just have to keep reminding myself of that. I am just now starting to feel sick to my stomach about everything.
That's all for now. I will keep you posted.
Thanks for stopping by!
