Katie and I are finally offically homeowners. This morning, we closed on our house at Louisiana Abstract in Shreveport. It only took us 30 minutes to sign all the paper work and get out of their with our new debt. Our closing costs were over $1000 less than the estimate we were given a few days ago, and our interest rate is .3% lower than our original quote also. Needless to say, we're happy.
We also made it out to Sears tonight to get a Fridge, and a washer and dryer. So, I've spent more money today than I've ever spent... or made in my lifetime. The strange thing is that I feel good about it.
I think Katie and I are moving in the right direction. We're working toward getting the things we want, but we're not letting things get out of hand. The house is new, but small. The appliances are new, but low-end. We moved in with Taylor for a few months before hand to save money for a down payment... I think we're managing money pretty well and making good decisions for the future.
Anyways, I think things are going well. I hope everyone we know can make it up at some point to see the house and hang out.
