boots - photos - house

Yesterday was just like Christmas

Firstly, I bought my dream boots yesterday. I had been eyeing them for such a long time.

My heart ached for them. Ster clearly saw my love for them and caved and let me get them.

Seriously, I was so smitten all day. They are a thing of beauty.

Secondly, we got all decked out and had some family pictures taken by Kelsy Pankhurst.

She is so adorable and she did a fantastic job.. Not to mention she has the cutest little girls ever.

We had so much fun and I cannot wait to see how they turned out. There is nothing better than a good ol' photoshoot. I love pictures SO much.

Third. WE BOUGHT A HOUSE!!!

We had been waiting for the past week or two to hear back if everything went through alright - and sure enough yesterday during our photoshoot we got the final word that everything was a GO! So, the story. We were planning on moving to Lethbridge in January and just renting a place. One day we heard about a great fixer-upper house in Taber that had just been put on the market. The owners wanted a quick sale so they listed it at a very low price. Sterling and I thought about it and figured, "well, what else are we going to do until the summer.. we may as well put an offer in." We have talked ever since we were married about getting a house and flipping it. Its just something we are both interested in. Annnyways. Our offer was accepted, and financing went through! We take possession on Dec. 15th and we are SO excited! It is on such a cute little street, close to the schools and church, and it has a HUGE backyard. We can't wait to get working on it.

WARNING! Extreme colors, hideous carpets - and everything is outdated.
