I Never Did Like Shopping....

The past three weeks have been filled with house hunting for Sara and I and in case noone has told you yet, houses in Colorado are EXPENSIVE! I'm a southern boy who is used to cheap land and acreage, which is not the case out West. In fact, Westerners apparently have an innate fear of living too far away from each other, because there's TONS of land around but everyone is packed in to .2 acre lots. Well, so is life, and at least the hunt is going well. Its a good time to buy a house and we've seen alot of different elevations and floor plans. We hope to have a contract in the next couple of weeks and as soon as we do, we'll post some pics of the would be Horan Manor.

Well, finally!



It has been a CRAZY few weeks! Here we are after Christmas and we have survived the storms (even though it is snowing again as I write this!) We spent about a week between parents houses at Christmas time. It was great to spend quality time with our families and be out of the snow. I have a FEW pictures but we didn't take many. The first is of me and my sisters, and obviously the second is me and Joe. (We all put on our scarves that Granny made for us)

Now we are back into the swing of things. Joe accepted the offer to take over the leadership of the children's ministry at our church. So we have been VERY busy trying to keep it going and come up with new ideas. The semester has started fully for me. I am taking 5 hours (3 classes) so we should stay really, really busy.
Also, we put in an offer on a house! Wow! We are waiting to hear back on the offer, so keep your fingers crossed, and pray that it is accepted!
Have a great day!
