We have been looking to mortgages ever since we signed the contract for the new house. I've never been good with math, numbers or anything like that, but boy it sure is difficult to choose what kind of mortgage to get, how much money to put down, and all that other fun stuff. Luckily, since this will be Austin's third house, he knows what is doing much more so than I am. We locked in a rate today, which is a scary thought because we get to put MORE money down on a house that isn't built yet (and while we still have a townhouse for sale). But we felt it was important to do so, since interest rates keep climbing higher and higher and look like they are going to continue to do so. Eek.
On another note, we are headed to the design center on Monday afternoon to pick out all of our interior selections. Things such as appliances, flooring, tile, paint, etc. I'm looking forward to picking out stuff, but not to how much it's going to cost. At least we will know up front and can start eating less food or something. Ha ha. I can always stand to lose some pounds.
Speaking of weight loss, I’m down 10 pounds since I started working out a few months ago. My clothes are fitting better. I need to work on eating better and more fruits and veggies, and most importantly drinking more WATER. I’m always very dehydrated. Bad Snickles.

Down 10 pounds YIPPEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so proud of you!
Thank you so much for the comment about supper solutions it was really helpful because I definitely know I can trust your opinion on that. That's awesome that the one is geared toward 3 people I'll let my parents know that for sure.
As soon as my parents get moved here we will definitely have all you guys (you, austin, julie, jason) over for a BBQ!!!!
Yay for 10 pounds!!!
I agree that it's probably good to lock in an interest rate. We did that too, luckily while they were still really low and then I swear, over night they went right up. We actually had to pay two more times to re-lock at that same rate because the builder kept screwing up and moving our move in date back. Luckily they reimbursed us for the second and third ones.
