Starting the house process!

I have a new recipe to post that I made last week. So I will be posting that very soon.

But in other news Joe and I are going to be starting the home buying process. Our lease is up on September 30th and we want to take plenty of time to find exactly what we want. So last week I e-mailed our real estate agent, who happens to be my cousin! He said it wasn't too early to get thigns started and he set up a meeting with us for Wednesday. We are just going to go over the whole process and ask questions. I would imagine the next step would be to get pre-approved. I am trying to not get too excited because I know we still have a lot of time and we don't want to move to quickly and get stuck paying rent and a house payment. So in my free time I have been doing a lot of internet searches for houses! It's pretty fun to see what is out there and it's crazy how affordable a lot of them are. Some houses would be a smaller monthly payment than our rent! I will to be sure to keep by blog updated with the house stuff!
