St. Louis Trip

The last weekend in July, we made a trip to St. Louis for our good friend, Faith's, wedding.  We decided to make a long weekend out of it and get in some fun family things while we were there.  Juju and Papa made the trip with us and Avery had a blast!  We visited the zoo, the Magic House, ate some yummy food, and one of A's favorite things, stayed in a HOTEL! :) 

New Home

We looked and looked and looked at so many different homes in NWA but just couldn't find "the one" for us.  After much thought and many prayers, we decided to build the house we want instead of settling for something else and then wanting to move again in a year or two.  We found a neighborhood we really liked and have met with the builder.  We have selected a floorplan and are waiting on the construction loan to close so they can get started with the house!  It will be 3 bedroom/2.5 bath downstairs with a formal dining and office and there will be a large bonus room with a full bath upstairs.  The layout downstairs is very similar to the house we had on Hanna Lane in Little Rock (which we LOVED!)...it will be very open and spacious.  We are excited and nervous all at the same time.  :) 

Here's the lot:

And the floorplan:
