We have moved in. To. A. House. We. Are. Ecstatic. Ok, enough of that kind of typing. Things have been crazy, but I finally have a minute to write about our new home. We have moved on from the apartment life in Valley Ranch/Irving and made the trek up North on 75 to beautiful Allen, TX. We like it here. There is a Little Caesar's Close. :)
My current top five reasons I love the house:
1. The absence of the leash.
I hate that this is the first thing I think of, but let's be honest here. Call a spade a spade. I don't have to take Sadie out on a leash (as much). I can put her in the backyard!
2. Ryan being closer to work. This means he wakes up later, therefore the dog wakes up later, therefore, I wake up later. But this is not the only reason why I like this. I also like that Ryan does not have to drive incredibly far to McKinney, as he was before we moved.
3. A feeling of pure joy when I am not rubbing elbows with Ryan, tripping over the dog's toys and tearing my hair out over lack of closet space. Read: SPACE. There is space here! Hallelujah!
4. Hobby Slobby. One of my favorite places, 5 minutes away.
5. Feeling like grown ups. This is the best feeling. I feel like adults when we pull up in the driveway and we know this house is ours. I feel like adults when we carry furniture upstairs and Ryan reminds me that "these walls are ours now..don't hit them." We feel so blessed that if we hit the wall, we have to fix it! I am not sure blessed is the right word for that scenario, but we are blessed.
Much love,
Allison
P.S. Here is Ryan in the "fraidy hole". It is where you go when you are scared.
