HAPPY MARDI GRAS!
Mike took me out to celebrate. Even though actual Mardi Gras themed celebrations are far & in between up here. I wanted to go to Louisiana Express for some gumbo, but it’s still icy and it was supposed to rain. So we’ll go Saturday. I still have a King Cake and am going to make shrimp jambalaya and black eyed peas <3.
I really miss the mardi gras season… it was one of the funnest times of the year growing up. Parades…. food….. friends & family…. ~~sigh~~ OH well. I’ll be over it tomorrow.
I’m rambling. Thank you everyone for your comments about the place I’m buying! I truly appreciate it! More on that to come! I’m just tired right now :bai:

I bought a house today =3

We signed the contract for our new home today!
We have 15 days to review it. I was really happy with the outcome so far. Our place is in pre-construction which is great for us because:
1: We’re getting a GREAT price on it.
2: It won’t be ready till this fall which is when our year lease ends with our apartment. That’s REALLY perfect because we won’t have to break our lease to move into a new home which could have cost literally thousands $$$.
3: It’s NEW and we’ll be the first owners of the pristine place.
I took photos of a model home that has nearly the EXACT same floor plan that ours will have. There’s a lot of photos but I’ll do my best to give the “tour.”
First off to give you an idea of what the home is…
