weekend rehashed

Monday, August 14, 2006

On Saturday Josh and I headed up to the bank to talk to the home loan guy. We really just needed to figure out what we're up against. I left the meeting feeling very encouraged, like we're actually on the right track. The bank guy was very impressed with our credit scores. He showed us some different options on buying a house. After the meeting Josh and I walked out and were already on the same page. We've decided to stay in the apartment for at least another year so that we can save up a down payment on a house. I'm going to pay off my car hopefully by the end of year and then save, save, save.... I'm excited to fill like we have a P.O.A. (plan of attack). Unless a house comes up that we can't pass up before we have a down payment saved, we'll be going with that option.

Saturday was pretty much a blur after the meeting... I cleaned like crazy. Ran over to see some friends that were in town. My brother got home for the weekend. My good friend, Erin, stopped by. Ate supper at my parents. Went to a little party for the friends that were in town and then hung out with my brother.

I also made a scarf this weekend. Erin brought me a birthday present of fall-colored yarn! I was so excited that I couldn't wait to start it. It is so yummy, I can't wait until fall to wear it.



This picture also showcases the lens I got from my parents! They decided not to wait until Wednesday to give me my birthday present so instead I got it yesterday. The 50 mm lens I was desperate for!! It's AMAZING. I cannot wait to test it out some more (especially on Kate!).
