A Confession

Hello. My name is Katie and I am a chronic house hunter. 
("HI KATIE!")

It is my FAVORITE thing to do. Even when we weren't in the market to buy a house I was always on the lookout. I would drive Chris crazy talking about moving all the time, him being frustrated that I was never content with the home I was living in. Well, I finally figured out that I just like to look. I don't have to buy but I can tag along with anyone (Nashs) who were looking for a house so I could walk through with them. It stems back to when Gilbert was really booming my dad would take me with him to look through model homes and I LOVED IT.

With moving to Fort Collins I get to go house hunting for myself. Although finding a home to rent is not as fun/easy as when looking for one to buy. I am excited for this weekend when I get to drive up (14 hours!) with Chris and our BFFs the Lovells to look through the 18 homes I have scheduled in hopes one of them will allow our dogs to come with us (but it's not looking too good).

I created this fancy excel spreadsheet to help me keep track of the houses that fit our criteria, we're really hoping we find a nice house with a huge basement so we can have room for family and friends to visit us.

  2. Haha! We're the exact same way! We bought our house here in Buckeye last year, but that hasn't stopped us from going through every model home we come across! Our girls love it, too. They always run in and find "their" room. They're even picking up on features David and I like and don't like (hate: tunnel entries, great rooms with no formal living room; love: round rooms and snail showers).

  3. I'm thinking you all will like a bigger house just for yourselves, once the snow hits ya you'll be spending a lot of time inside...but we are so happy that there would be an empty corner for a sleeping bag or two!
