Back in April my husband left the Army and we moved back home. It has been quite the transition. Not only did we move back home from Germany, we were also coming back to our families after spending years away on our own. We went from being used to having out own house to living with family. We went from having a steady income to my husband being in construction and the possibility that at any moment the job could end and he would be laid-off and job hunting again. It seemed like there was no end in sight. But recently, my husband was able to secure a job in his field that the Army had trained him in and we are purchasing our first home! Although it has been nice to live near family, we are ready to be out on our own again and have our own space. I cannot tell you how excited I am to go from staying in 2 rooms in my parent's house (although, they have been wonderful and a true blessing to us) to finally being in our own house and not having to move within a year! Being able to settle back into our routine as a family will be so nice. I am so looking forward to it! Another thing I'm looking forward to is turning our house into our home! We have always lived in on-post housing and hadn't been able to really personalize our living space because we weren't ever in one place for very long. This will be the first time we have ever painted our walls, hung all our pictures, and done all the things that really make your home your sanctuary. I can't wait to post pictures of what we are starting with and then more showing our progress, and finally our finished product!You can check out my Pinterest board to see what I will be using as my inspiration. I also have seperate boards for specific rooms, such as the nursery and toy room. I would love for you to follow along with us as we step into this new season as a family.
