This past December 2009, I was lucky enough to buy my own place. It's a cute little two bedroom, two bathroom condo with an awesome backyard for Miss B (Bandit). I was really excited because I got a great deal on it and an awesome interest rate thanks to my incredible loan officer. We actually found the place back in August and put in an offer and started the process, but due to school and financial aid issues and an extremely picky underwriter at the mortgage company, I didn't close until the week before Christmas. It was such a long process, but it all worked out in the end and I got a new house for Christmas.

Here are some pictures of the place before I moved in and I'm working on decorating and will get pictures of what it looks like now up soon. These are in a really random order since this thing won't work with me, sorry.


Laundry room, I was lucky enough to get them with the house so I didn't have to buy them or go to my mom's.

So that's it, it's small but we love it. I had a friend of mine move in with me at the end of February so it's not so empty now. New pictures soon, I hope!
