I'm a Housewife!

Today was a big day for us. James found out he passed the 3rd part of the CPA exam, and we closed on our home! We're thrilled about it. We initially put an offer on another house a couple months ago and a bunch of things went wrong, and now we're glad and so blessed to have found an even better fit for us. The sellers just moved out today and we're moving in tomorrow with the help of some of James's loyal friends. We couldn't be happier (sung in the melody of the Wicked song).



Here's James carrying me over the threshold. It was my mother-in-law's idea and she was going to try and find a dish cloth for a veil (ha), but we just did without. James was nice to try and look like it was effortless, but if you were me, you could see his face redden and feel him shaking. =) We just ate at Outback before to celebrate. Woo hoo!
