Getting things done!

Friday, September 27, 2013
I feel like we got so much done today. It feels good. This morning we got a call with two house offers!! We were really worried that we wouldn't get one here on Kadena but one of the offers was! The way it works is that they give you two places, then you get to see them and pick one. I was worried that the one here on Kadena would be old and ugly and then the other one (it was on Camp Lester) would be super nice and new. Happily, it was the opposite. The one here on Kadena was nice and renovated and the one over on Lester was yucky and old. EASIEST choice ever!! I forgot to get a pic but our new house looks like the apartment complex below (example of the outside from online). We will be in apartment B and it has two floors.
There is still a family living there so it will be a while before we get in (that was the only down side). They said they move out next Wednesday and then the housing office will go through and clean it all up. What I really like abut the house is that it is at the top of a hill, has a new kitchen and lots of storage! It is kinda in a little bowl on the hill so you can't see any cool views but it is still really nice. We won't have to worry about typhoons at least! It is also in the branch boundaries that we want to live in!! So happy! 

After that, we went and picked out a car! It will be ready to pick up on Monday afternoon. It is a pimped out Honda Fit! We went and got the down payment. I think Logan really liked holding all that cash! lol.
I really wanted this yellow Honda Fit but this one is a lot nicer (and the yellow one was gone by the time we got back to the lot). So here is my new car!! It is a 2002 but only has like 22,000 miles! We call him Tokyo Drift or Drift for short!
The inside is really nice and clean too and it has a full back seat (for all our visitors). You might also notice that the driver seat is on the right! That is going to take some getting used to as well as driving on the left side of the road! 

We also plan on getting Logan a new car too. He is going to Florida in a week for about 3 weeks so we don't need two cars yet but when he gets back we will probably get another car. This will be the fist time since we were married that we had two cars!
