I am so excited for the apartment we're moving into!
Why? Well, here's why:
My parents bought a second house in Daybreak three (I think?) years ago, with plans of turning the basement into a separate apartment and then renting out the upstairs to single people. My brother moved in to manage the house. It started out with a house full of boys, and eventually became a house of ladies, with my brother living in the basement apartment.
I moved into one of the upstairs bedrooms in 2010, and I loved it! It was a great way to be close to family, but also learn to be independent. It was a fun year and I loved living on my own! (I'm also glad I was able to do it before getting married.) I learned so much about budgeting, I'm pretty much a master at it now!
When Shane and I started dating I was living at this house. He came over every day, (I'm not kidding, we still haven't gone a day without seeing each other.) We would always do one of three things; sit on the porch swing and get to know each other better, go for walks around the lake, or watch a movie.
Shane and I fell in love at that house and I cannot wait to move back into it! Not only is the basement apartment amazing and big enough for the family we're starting, but it's such a meaningful place full of amazing memories!
I just can't wait to move into this house again!! I can't wait to start raising our daughter there, I can't wait to go for walks around the lake, and I can't wait to sit on the porch swing again! (This time it'll be our swing though, the swing Shane proposed to me on.) Awwwww!
