A New Home for Adam and Stephanie - Habitat for Humanity Finishes Up

It was June of last year when we first introduced you to Adam Bayne and Stephanie Anderson.  They are a young couple who had been living up in Whitehall in a manufactured home that was getting to the point of needing some repairs that made it pretty questionable and with their growing family, it was time to begin to think about finding a way to put down some roots and build a forever home.






Our First Visit With Adam and Stephanie
Like so many others, they needed a hand when it came to things like establishing credit, knowing where to turn for advice, how to get this that or the other thing done...hey...there is a lot that goes into home ownership.  It can be a very difficult and intimidating process.  But, Adam and Stephanie were determined that no hill was too big to climb so they began their journey with Habitat for Humanity in Muskegon to see if they were qualified to work in their program and work toward home ownership.  They were.

Through the process, there were plenty of classes on things like proper money management and home ownership.  There's also the sweat equity that goes into every Habitat home by those who will live there. 400 hours of sweat equity to be exact. There is some time dedicated to helping Habitat at their locations in town as well and it's all centered around building a home, but more so...building a community.


Adam and Stephanie's New Home
Well, March 1st of 2018 was a banner day for Adam and Stephanie.  A banner day for all of us actually because what was a bare patch of land in Muskegon, well, now...it's a brand new three bedroom home and we were invited back to visit with Adam and Stephanie to talk about the experience, take a tour of the place and show you first hand just what happens when great people, who truly deserve a good thing happening in their lives get one.  Like any party, they all seem to gravitate to the kitchen and that's where we ended up to take you on a tour of their brand new home.  Take a look.




I did ok...up until I left.  I got there early to do what I had to do, but as the friends and family poured in I drove off and to be honest..it all caught up with me.  Ya, big old tough Andy was reaching for the tissues.  I was a little misty eyed at watching this miracle unfold.  All in all, over 50 people came to celebrate the dedication of this beautiful new home and a great new start for Adam and Stephanie.  I have known these guys for a long time and I am so proud of all they have done to get here.  It's not been easy but they did it with the help of Habitat for Humanity of Muskegon.  Good things happen to good people.  Our humble thanks to Adam and Stephanie for sharing their experience with all of us.
