Dallas Shower

This past weekend I had my first bridal shower!  It was in Dallas, hosted by two of my bridesmaids, Kate & Sara.  It was at Kate’s parents’ house & everything was absolutely beautiful.  They had towels monogrammed with our new initials & an apron made that said “Mrs. Day”, “D”s tied to the plants with ribbon out front, pillows on the benches outside to match the invitations….it was all seriously so cute!!  My mom was able to fly in (which was nice because I also got to spend mother’s day with her).  It was so much fun to see so many friends & I can’t thank everyone enough, especially Kate & Sara, for the beautiful shower!

Kate’s cutie little boy, Mason, came to help set up.

Under contract….again….

Yep, you read that right!  We made it to final inspection, the day prior to closing, and founnd mold on a wall.  They tore down the wall and found that the studs were saturated and also covered in mold & the moisture levels in some of the rooms was over 20%.  Everything had been just find when we had it inspected 3 weeks prior.  Water was getting into the foundation from somewhere below and they couldn’t figure out why. We decided that this was not something we wanted to deal with at all and terminated the contract. 

The next day we found another house that had just recently been listed in the same neighborhood & decided to make an appointment to go see it.  We immediately fell in love with it.  It was bigger, had some great updates, had what seem to be solid bones, and an absolutely gorgeous lot.  Needs a few little cosmetic changes, but Alan always needs a project so nothing that’s too big of a deal.  Since we already had everything in line with the lender from the previous house we decided to go ahead and make an offer on this one.  After a little negotiating the sellers accepted & we are under contract, once again

So say some prayers that inspection goes well & there is nothing major that needs to be fixed!

Michelle’s Maternity Pictures

My friend, Michelle, asked me to take her maternity pictures a few weeks back so I thought I’d post a few.  She’s due at the beginning of May & we can’t wait to meet little Jaxson.
