Savannah's first hair cut!

Well Savannah is the flower girl at my aunt Patricia's wedding this Saturday and her bangs are out of control so we decided to get her hair cut. I was scared cuz she has never had one and that is a big step to get rid of her baby hair(tear). We went to cookie cutters in Riverdale and oh my gosh i loved them!! They did so good savvy didn't cry or anything needless to say if anyone has kids that need their hair cut go there! The hairdresser even put layers in her hair :) bye bye baby mullet savannah looks like a big girl now!

more on our first home

So today we did our inspection and everything looks good. Now I can't stop thinking about how I want to dig the basement out (it is a half basement) but you can make it a full basement with some hard work and sweat! :) then i got to thinking i want to expand the master bedroom and bathroom so we will see if it really happens lol. i am full of dreams and i wanna get it paid off well before our loan is up, i think it would be cool to live here for about 10 years and hopefully have it paid off by then (we are going to pay double to triple monthly payments) and then have it as an income property! so we will see :) oh and if any of the remodeling happens i will post pictures for sure :) is it normal to picture where everything is supposed to go in the house? i can't stop thinking about it and we don't close til september 17th, it is going to be a long three weeks!!! oh and we are moving out of our rental house by september 1st so we will either be living with my mom or at my sisters house for a couple of weeks so we will see how that goes :). i know food storage is really good to have but gosh it sucks to pack! i have one week to clean and everything so i am gaining gray hair for sure! oh and another question to i move in then paint or paint then move in? i have never bought a house before i don't know the order of things.
