Once we were back on solid ground, we started our very serious search for a home. With our trusty real estate agent/dad in tow, we scoured the Dublin, Pleasanton and San Ramon areas for a place to call our own. It didn't take too many long weekend searches to find a place that we loved AND was in our price range. And more so enviable in our eyes, it was in Dublin, and it has a view.
We bought a brand new 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath townhome that came with about a bazillion stairs. But has a view that we cannot get enough of. We spent many hours fretting over just the right picks for appliances, tile, carpet, hardwood, granite, cabinets, etc. But in the end ... we'll have to say that we did pretty good on our first home.
It's so nice to have a place that we call our own ... to know that when we put something on the walls that it's for however long we want. And we only have to paint, fill the holes with spackle or clean the carpets if we want. :)
