It's official...

No pictures this time, just a quick note to say that we finally CLOSED and the house is officially ours! Of course nothing could go smoothly, so the banks kept us waiting for 8 hours on pins and needles today. We were supposed to sign all the paperwork at 10 am and finally got bank approval at 6 pm. It's all said and done now, though. We already had a contractor over to the house today to start drawing up estimates for things on our list! We're off on vacation for a week and then we'll dive right in. Hopefully the next batch of pictures will be work-in-progress!
