So ever since we got engaged, life has been a whirlwind!! All I have to say to young girls is it doesn't happen and work like in the movies, but hang in there and it will all be worth it :)
{Finding our House}
Like I said in the previous post, we will be living in Lewiston,ID after we are married! Jordan got transferred with EcoLab to manage the Lewiston, Moscow, Pullman, and Clarkston Territory and we couldn't be more excited to start some roots there! The house that I spoke of in the previous post we didn't end up getting due to a couple other applications that were put in before ours, but we were blessed with an even more amazing house! We had to go up the next weekend to look again for a house. We drove around some subdivisions and drove by some houses and said "Oo those look nice I would take one of those." Funny story is that is exactly what happened. A Friend of the guy we had applied with before knew a family that were renting a house due to a family member passing away. He passed along our application and we were able to seal the deal and move Jordan the next weekend! This house had all we were looking for and more! A 2 car garge for all of Jordan's work stuff, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a washer and dryer, a kick butt kitchen with a pantry, and a good neighborhood. We love it! The bedrooms are huge, its a quiet community, the kitchen is huge with lots of storage, AND our backyard overlooks sunset park!
So the following weekend, we moved Jordan from Kalispell, Mt into our new home in Lewiston. Our Landlords are super awesome and let us paint whatever we want and make any changes we want!.... So, our first house project was painting the kitchen. All my kitchen stuff is rustic americana stuff and I have dreamed of having a dark red kitchen. Sooooooo when we moved Jordan, I tackled just that! Word to the wise, NEVER use Glidden paint! After 5 coats and almost crying when the first coat was pink, I will never use it ever again. It was awful! Good thing it turned out really good despite the bumps and I can't wait to put things up! Jordan is moved in now, and after the wedding, I will be up there too! We are so excited :)
{Engagement Pics}
In between all the chaos of transitioning into marriage, we managed to sneak in some engagement pics before Jordan went on vacation with is family! Here are some of our favorites :)
We had a blast taking pictures with Tasha! We laughed and got some good shots :)
We were so happy with how cute our announcements came out! They didn't scan too well, but you get the basic idea :)
