This is the place
Where weโll unload our livesโฆ and actually be able to stick around for a while
With bare walls, ready to be decorated
Empty rooms, ready to be filled
A closet, big enough to sleep in
And a lovely bathtub which might actually make me enjoy baths
[Iโm more of a shower girl]
Our first gas stove!
and first backyardโฆ Bella is already going cccrrraazzzzyyy over it
Where weโll bring our first baby home from the hospitalโฆ
to create so many beautiful memories
and be able to remember as our first *home* <3

Congratulations! This post made me tear up. Everything happens for a reason and there is a reason that you’re being able to move into this house NOW. Have so much fun in your first morning in your new house!
Oh gosh, I almost teared up at this.. you’re a good writer, Gina.. Anyways, congrats- this is a wonderful, WONDERFUL move for you and your fam! ๐ Plus i can’t wait to see how you decorate! PS did they leave buddha??
Congratulations to you and the Pilot! The part about the baby made me smile so big…you have so many wonderful things ahead of you ๐ So happy for your family!!
Gas stove, beautiful open living area, huge backyard with gorgeous views? Gina—you did good ; )
I love your new place! It is so open and beautiful! I can’t wait to see what you do with it ๐
Wow! What a beautiful house! This post made me tear up – it is an odd feeling as we’ve never met but I feel emotionally invested in all these wonderful new things in your life (does that make me a stalker…?) I like to think it is just an indication of how personable your writing is ๐
Congratulations on all the wonderful new endeavors!

Congrats! Beautiful home!! Enjoy this very exciting time in your lives ๐
Oh my goodness – what a BEAUTIFUL house! You and the Pilot have definitely earned it. Good luck with the unpacking and enjoy your first home!
I love it, but question- how do you afford a brand new house in the economy with a baby on the way? I also have a baby on the way and my husband is working so much but we sxrape by for money! That is amazing you can do that!
i have 3 jobs, the pilot works, and we got a sick deal on it since it was short sale
congrats on your little one on the way!!!
Congrats – you’re house is beautiful! I can’t wait to see you make it a home!!
PS – We moved into our home last year and it was the first time I’ve had a gas stove too! It’s so amazing – I will never go back to electric! I already told Joe that if we move to a house that doesn’t have gas hookups, he better be ready to have them installed ๐
Your home is absolutely beautiful!!! I am so happy for you! Will you do some decorating posts? I love seeing into bloggers homes when they’re all done. I’m just a big creeper I guess, lol! ๐
YAY- Congrats. What a lovely home. Looking forward to seeing more pics and hearing more stories.
What a beautiful home! Good luck with settling in and getting that house nice and pretty ๐
Congrats! Such a beautiful home! Very very excited for y’all!!!
Your house looks gorgeous! What a stunning back yard and kitchen. All the best for your new home! Be sure to let us know how you get on with decorating and such ๐
Yay-congrats!! I heard it feels awesome to take baths while pregnant because your belly just feels so light while you’re laying in the tub. I’m excited to see the decorating process!
What a gorgeous house… ready to be turned into a home ๐ !
…..& that kitchen ๐ gorgeous!
Beautiful home! Congratulations!!
So exciting! Your house looks wonderful! ๐
Congrats to you, Pilot and mini-pilot!!! This is the beginning of some wonderful memories.
The house is beautiful! I also believe that everything happens for a reason……..all things have come together…Pilot being stationed in AZ so you all can be near family….the blessing of a mini-pilot and now a beautiful, amazing house to bring lil man home in! Enjoy! You are sooo blessed….thank you for sharing everything with us!
BTW, LOVE the walk-in closet. Thats a whole room in itself ๐
Your new home is beautiful!! And that kitchen! Looove it. Have fun decorating and getting settled in– it must feel so good to finally be at this point! We are actually on the other end of it– we just began house hunting. So excited! ๐
omg your home is BEAUTIFUL ! Congrats!!
Such a beautiful house! Enjoy!
It’s amazing how full of joy my heart is for you, even though we’ve never met…you have just been so honest with us through the years with struggles of never feeling “settled.” Now, we can celebrate with you! Beautifully written!
It’s beautiful! I love it…great backyard! great architecture! Enjoy
Oh, I’m teary. It’s beautiful. I absolutely love the arches in the loft area. Your first home is such a wonderful experience, and a place you will never, ever forget!
