Growing Up...Buying a House!

Well I know I haven't posted in a few days, but things here have been CrAzY!! I never thought I would be this nervous, sick, worried over my future before. After being married for 8 months, we are maing a HUGE step in our life together. We are buying a house. After many many hours of going back and forth, I think we have got the advantage. Until today, I totally lost it. We were talking to our loan officer, whom I have to say is AMAZING!! She was letting us know a few things, and I guess it finally hit me that we are less than a month away from possibly being a homeowner. I have dreamed my whole life for this, and now it is slowly coming true, and I am scared to death!!!!! Anyone that reads this and has been in my position, please tell me how you made it through. But I wanted to update everyone. I will add pictures soon!!!! Just say a prayer that we are making the right choices and that God will continue to bless us. Have a GREAT weekend!!!

Live, Laugh and Love!!

Excited, but Nervous at the Same time...

Well I am back once again for a new post. The past few days have been super exciting in the Robinson home. NO..I am NOT Prego...It all started on Friday when I was bored at Jim's physical therapy appointment. So, I went driving around....then I come upon it, the most beautiful, amazing and wonderful house in the whole wide world. Sitting on the corner a corner lot my dream home. Perfect vinal siding, beautiful white porch railing, and a back deck to enjoy with our friends and family. So, I immediatly called the realtor about the house. Finally on Sunday morning, we got to see the inside. It was so perfect....After much discussion, we decided we wanted to make a bid. So, at 6:30 this evening, we placed a bid on our FIRST Home...and within 10 mins of leaving the relator office, the builder accepted!!!!! The only thing standing in our way is making sure the Bank will give us the loan. I dont really forsee a problem, but being a first time homebuyer it could hurt. So, please each person that reads this, say a prayer that something for once will go our way and we will have this amazing home. We go to the bank on Friday, so I will keep you updated...Until then...

Live, Laugh and Love

Welcome to our life....





Well since everyone elseI know has a blog, I figured what the hey, I will make Jim and I a blog too. Well lets see...I am Sarah and I am married to an amazing man named Jim. We have been married for about 8 months now. We were married on the 3rd Saturday in October....Does that mean anything to anyone?!?! Well it means a lot to EVERY TENNESSEE fan in the world, that is the one Saturday in October that NO ONE, I mean NO ONE misses the Tennessee vs. Alabama game. So yes I not being a big Tennessee fan didn't know is small bit of info and planned my wedding day for Oct 20, 07. Needless to say, my husband had a HUGE big screen tv at the reception to watch the game and they LOST!! Anyway, enough of that, we live in an apartment here in town and are currently looking for our first house. We have no kids just yet, but I want to be a mother someday. I have some amazing friends in my life and I am so blessed. God has blessed me with an amazing man to share my life with and an amazing family. I work for the Girl Scouts, and I LOVE my job. Jim works for a plant making materials to send overseas. So here is the Robinson's in a small nutshell. I hope to share more about our lives with you.
