looking for a home is harder than i thought!

so casey and i are looking for houses these days. meaning that casey is looking for a house and i get to look with him and provide imput :) i will say i've already gotten my heart broken after day one. that just proves that you should not get your hopes up on anything that may be "too good to be true." i learned that from katie during her house hunting adventures. thankfully this week she and ian finally got a house after two months of searching! yey!

here is what casey (and i) is/are looking for:
  • 2 bathrooms (i don't like the idea of only having one bathroom since we like to entertain
  • basement (preferably unfinished, casey would like to have his own space to put a bar or something)
  • garage of some sort
  • nice sized yard for the dogs (since he has two dogs we need a yard for them to play)

here are the areas that we really would like to live in (in no particular order):

  • st. matthews
  • highlands
  • anchorage
  • middletown
  • hikes point
  • oldham county (crestwood or buckner, he says la grange is too far!)
  • river road
  • brownsboro road
  • and any place in between

we would ideally like a fixer uper, and i say that after i thought that finding a newer home would be something i wanted. i realized that our money would go further by doing it ourselves and we have the time and the resources to do that...and by resources i mean our large families :)

so keep us in your prayers that we find a great deal and a good opportunity!
