A House.... Home Sweet Home

  So our latest big news WE ARE BUYING A HOUSE!!!! It amazes me how the Lord works things out! We make our own plans and suddenly the Lord gives you something better! Our plan was simply to pay off student and so a house was about 3 years away still but here we are. We were planning on just moving into a 3 bedroom  apartment but realized that is would be the same if not a little less to buy a house. So we started our search… the bank suggested the BEST realtor ever, his name is Ron Arnold and he has been absolutely great! So for three months we have been looking at different houses and finally decided to expand our search and look at two houses in a city called St Anthony. The first one we looked at Dan just LOVED it  but we still looked at the other one and size wise really liked it but it needed more improvements. So that was Thursday, Friday we put in an offer Friday at 4- 4:30ish and our realtor called us Friday night at 10:15 and told us they accepted out offer as is!!!!! He got us the corner table that fits perfectly, a window AC, and the dishwasher! And they are paying closing costs. WOW It has all worked out better than we ever could have expected!!! So in a month from now we could be living in our own house!!!! :)

What an amazing thought that I will soon be able to say home sweet home and that it will be MY home. My very own space!!!


I will try to get some picture of the house when I go and visit in about a week and 1/2 when my WONDERFUL Mother in Law is coming!!! I tried to put the ones from the MLS site but it wouldn't let me save the post, sadly,  but we are REALLY EXCITED!!!! Not where we expected to be city wise or house wise but the Lord is AMAZING!!!!
