Okay, so maybe it's not BIG news, but big changes!
My House...
...for sale.
I love my house. It's where I've raised my children so far. It was our first home. We've put a lot of time and work into it. We love the neighborhood. We love this house. (I did have to fight the tears when I saw the Realtor pounding the sign in my yard.)
However, it's time to move on to something bigger. When we bought it, we didn't have any children and it was perfect for us. Six years and two children later, it's getting crowded and we're outgrowing it.
It's quite a long story but in the past 3 weeks, this is what's happened:
-Thought about building a house
-Got a lead to a good builder and found out costs would be cheaper than we thought
-Our Realtor (who we hadn't talked to in over 6 months) called with someone who was interested in a home just like ours
-We showed our house the next day
-Didn't sell our house
-Talked to the contractor and picked out a house plan
-Bought a house plan and it's in the contractors arms for the bid right now
-The house has been on the market for 4 days (since last Wed) and we've had one showing and two more scheduled so far (plus the Realtor walk through)
We have our eye on a lot we like. We're waiting for our bid for our new house and hopefully to have our current house under contract so we can buy the lot. We're so super excited. Everything has fallen into place and I KNOW the Lord's hand has helped us. We are so blessed.
