Putting down roots

We have been back and forth soooo much when it comes to where we are going to settle down. Back in the days of free-spirited farming we decided that we wouldn't move back to Utah...but we did. Then when we moved back to Utah we decided that we weren't going to stay...but we did. And now we are buying a house... in Utah. Our long term goal is still to move out of Utah but at this point in time I think that this is where we need to be.

After looking endlessly online at homes, both in and out of Salt Lake we found one to look at back in November of last year. After starting the mortgage process and meeting with a mortgage consultant we discovered that paying off your debt may feel good but it leaves you with no credit score...which makes it impossible to get a home loan. So six months, one (awesome) baby, and thousands of dollars later we now have credit scores and have found a house. Woohoo... but just for a few years...we're not staying in Utah permanently, right??
