NEW HOME!

Our starter home is in the heart of Rose Park. It's in the same neighborhood where we grew up. The reason why we chose this area is we love the sense of community that there is in this neighborhood. As we looked at many homes we found that is something important to us that is hard to come by these days. 
Since this was our Christmas to each other our biggest goal was to be moved in by Christmas. We were rushing to give our new home the little TLC that it needed so that we can be settled in by then.

Our realtor gave a us a unique house warming gift. He took a picture our new home and had an artist sketch it. Blandina was absolutely in love with it.

Let the fun begin....

Soon to be office.


Who knew we would be this excited for recessed lighting.

...

Wow... It has been over a year since I last updated this thing and so much has happened.

Married life has been great I can't believe in 3 months we will be married for 1 year and speaking about that we are already planning our 1 year anniversary and we are thinking of going back to Mexico.

Other than that everything is pretty much the same I'm still going to school and working. I did start a new job in January, I now work at OptumHealth Bank, they are owned by UnitedHealth Group and I work with HR individuals on managing their employee's HSAs thus far the job has been great and I'm getting to learn a lot.

Until next time...
