Love Story

It was a hot (at least by Portland standards) day in July, a Friday. I had been searching for The One for what felt like forever, and little did I know, my life would change that afternoon.

I pulled up and stepped out of the air conditioned car to a wave of hot, humid air. You caught my eye at first glance and as I took time to size you up I became more intrigued. Within just a few minutes I came to realize that you had everything I was looking for and so much more. This was it.

Over the next few weeks there were countless conversations, exchanges of deeply personal information, and complete analysis of my finances, and finally, we were given the green light. I signed the next 30 years of my paycheck away and then, you were mine.

This blog - Rose City Home - is a love story between a girl and her very first home. I hope you like it!

Up next: the introductions.
