Lucy and Kevin had been home from New York for a couple of days. Kevin had already left for work but Lucy didn't have class until later.

Right now Ruthie, Lucy, Sam, David, and Annie were sitting in the kitchen eating breakfast. "So what was your favorite part about New York?" Annie asked.

"Well, I didn't really have a favorite part," Lucy said. "But I did have a lot of fun shopping with Kevin's mom. I also had a great time when I went out with Kevin. He took me to the place where we went on our first date."

"How romantic!" Ruthie exclaimed.

"Yes it was," Lucy said. "Kevin and I also triple dated with Mary, Carlos, Sarah and Matt. That was a lot of fun. Both Kevin and I had a really great time," Lucy said.

Lucy and Kevin were out looking for house about two and half weeks after they had gotten home from New York. They've already looked at a couple of houses but they didn't really like them. They just pulled up in front of another house, Kevin parked the car and then they went into the "open house." They found that the house had six bedrooms-one of them was a master bedroom, four bathrooms-including the one in the master bedroom, a den, an office, a dining room, an eat in kitchen, a laundry room, a large backyard, and a pool. The house was very beautiful.

"I really like this house," Lucy said to Kevin as they walked through the halls.

"Yeah I do too," Kevin said. "We should definitely buy it."

"Do we have enough money to pay for something like this?" Lucy asked.

"Of course we do," Kevin said.

"Good because this is the perfect house," Lucy said. "It is walking distance from my parents' house and it's beautiful and perfect for the big family that we want." Lucy and Kevin put a bid down on the house and then went home to tell everyone the good news.

Kevin and Lucy were eating dinner alone up in their apartment. "I really hope we get that house," Lucy exclaimed.

"I know, I do too," Kevin said. "But don't get too excited because we might not get it." Just then the phone rang "I will get it," Kevin offered. He picked it up and then said, "Hello…Oh, hi…Yes….Thank you. Bye,"

"Who was it?" Lucy asked.

"That was the people who own that house we looked at today," Kevin said.

"And? What happened? What did they say?" Lucy exclaimed.

"Well… WE GOT THE HOUSE!" Kevin exclaimed.

"WE GOT THE HOUSE," Lucy exclaimed. The two of them hugged as Lucy started to cry.

"What's the matter honey?" Kevin asked.

"I am just so happy. I can't wait to move in," Lucy said. Then Lucy and Kevin kissed and ran downstairs to tell Annie and Eric.

"You got the house?" Annie exclaimed after Lucy and Kevin told her and Eric.

"Congratulations," Eric said. "Good for you!"

"Yes, very good," Annie said. "When do you plan on moving in to the new house?"

"Well, its October tenth," Kevin said, "so probably the end of October or the beginning of November. It depends how long it takes us to pack."

"Okay," Eric said. "Well, we are very happy for you."

"We have to go home and call Kevin's parents. Bye," Lucy said. Then Kevin and Lucy went up to the garage apartment to call Kevin's parents.

Lucy and Kevin were moving into their new house today. Matt, Sarah, Mary, Carlos, Ben, Patty-Mary, Karen, Steve, and Charlie came in from New York to help. Ruthie was bringing Peter to help too.

Right now everyone was at the house bringing boxes inside. Lucy and Sarah weren't allowed to help because Lucy was now seven months pregnant and Sarah was four months pregnant. The two of them were watching Charlie and Lucy was telling people where certain things went.

At seven-thirty Lucy ordered pizza so everyone could eat a late dinner. As soon as the pizza got to the house everyone started eating on the couches and on the floor.

"This house is really beautiful," Mary commented.

"Yeah we thought so too," Lucy said.

"We can't wait to move in," Kevin said.

"Yeah, that's how your father and I felt when we moved into our house," Annie said. Everyone finished eating and then they got back to unpacking. At ten o'clock everyone went home. Kevin's parents and Ben, and Patty-Mary were staying at a hotel and everyone else was staying at Annie and Eric's house. Everything wasn't unpacked yet but all the important things that they would need in the next couple of days were. As soon as everybody left Kevin and Lucy immediately went to bed.

"Kevin, I can't sleep," Lucy said as she lightly shook Kevin.

"Yeah, neither can I," Kevin said. "It's just so weird sleeping in this new house."

"I know," Lucy said. "I'm used to having my parents downstairs, and now they aren't."

"Come here," Kevin said and he pulled Lucy into a hug. "We'll get used to living here without your parents downstairs. I mean we had to move out sometime." Soon Lucy fell asleep in Kevin's arms.

When Lucy woke up she was surprised to smell breakfast being made in the kitchen. She got up and went downstairs and when she got there she was surprised to find Kevin standing in front of the stove making bacon and eggs.

"Where did you get that food? We didn't have any food in the refrigerator last night," Lucy asked.

"Well, I unpacked all the cooking stuff and then I went to the store and bought some stuff for breakfast," Kevin explained.

"This is the first time we are cooking in this house," Lucy said excitedly. "Thank you so much for this."

"Sure," Kevin said. "Anything for the love of my life. I love you."

"I love you too," Lucy said.

"That house that Lucy and Kevin bought is really nice," Carlos said. Everyone was sitting at the kitchen table eating breakfast.

"I know," Carlos said.

"It's hard to believe that they don't live in the garage apartment anymore," Annie said.

"Well, it's good that they bought a house that is pretty close to our house," Ruthie said. "This way we will see them almost as much as we used to." Then Annie brought over a plate that had a pile of pancakes on it. Everyone took at least one pancake off the pile.

"These pancakes are really good mom," Matt said as he took another bite/.

"Thanks Matt," Annie said.

Then the phone rang and Eric answered it. "Hello?"

"Hi dad, it's Lucy," Lucy said on the other end.

"Hey Luce," Eric said.

"Kevin and I were wondering if everybody wanted to come over for dinner," Lucy said. "To celebrate moving into our new house."

"Yeah I think that's fine," Eric said.

"You guys can come around five-thirty. If that is okay," Lucy said.

"Yeah that is fine," Eric said. "We will see you then. Bye!"

"Bye," Lucy said.
