What did I do to keep my mind off of the ring? I BOUGHT A HOUSE!

    Im just so excited i have to share! I closed on my very first house yesterday! I must say...that over the last month or so i really havent been thinking about the ring! Thanks to my new house :) I went paint shopping today with my parents...SO is out of town at a football game. I cant wait till he gets back tomorrow and we can try out our paint samples! It is the house that we plan on living in when we get hitched! My family is pretty traditional so we are not "officially" moving in together untill we are married...but we will def be spending a lot more time together now that we will have a place to go and not have to worry about roomates etc. I am so excited and just had to share!

    That's so fun! I can't wait until we're done with grad school so that we can finally settle down and buy a house. :)

    Aww how awesome! I can't wait to get a house, either. I wish I could have afforded it while waiting on the ring... it definitely would have been very occupying!

    Congrats! My bf and I bought our house in late August.  We're not paying much more for it than we were in rent, but still no ring here.  The distractions in the house are not strong enough! LOL

    We just decorated the house for Christmas.  I love owning a house.  We had a house for two years before I got the ring. :)

    Congrats on the new house!  You'll have lots of time to decorate and paint and to keep you busy and your mind off the "Ring".
