A Home for Maddy

It's been exactly one year since we found our dream home.  Okay, so maybe it wasn't our dream home at first, but we had a plan to make it one.  This past year has been a whirlwind, to say the least.

Upon moving back to Michigan, Jon and I could not of been more excitied to buy a home for our soon to be family of three!  Jon worked around the clock from October through December to turn "Stacey & Jon's House" into a new home for our baby girl.

Jon and I have been blessed to of lived in a  new home where we picked everything out, and were even lucky enough to rent a brand new home in Asheville, so buying a "gently used" home was weird for us.  Let's just say, it was the location that we fell in love with...and you know what they say...location, location, location!!!  The entire house was repainted, master shower rebuilt and tiled, all new closets and doors hung, new hardwoord floors throughout, and the list goes on and on.  Maybe next time (haha) we should just buy a new home.  Actually, next time (haha), I think I would like to buy a real old home with character...and again move in while pregnant so I don't have to do a thing (smart, huh?)!

We love you Maddy, and we know you love the house that Daddy turned into your home!
