We got the house!!!!

The bank accepted our offer today! We couldn't be more excited! We got the call from our realtor at about 11am and by 4pm we had picked out paint colors for some of the rooms and put in our 30 day notice! Yippie! We are no longer renters!!!!! I'll post pictures when we get to go up again.

House Update... well... sort of...

Just wanted to let those of you who are curious know that after 7 days we have still heard nothing about the house. Monday we found out there were 2 other offers and that the bank wanted all parties to come back with their best and final offers within 24 hours which would have put us at Tuesday morning. It is now Wednesday night and we still don't know if we got the house or if we have to go back to square one all over again for the 4th time. I think if we lose this one we will take a bit of a break. This past week has been really rough on both of us. Keep praying that we get it. Out of our list of things we wanted and didn't want there is only one thing that we didn't want and it isn't even that huge of a deal (or so Steve keeps trying to convince me of). I will update with more information as soon as I know anything.

New month... new adventures...

So it's now April and a new month brings new adventures! We have been house hunting for a couple of months now and have put a couple offers on a couple houses and had a very strange experience. Wednesday however we received a phone call from our realtor and we ended up putting an offer on a bank owned property that we both absolutely fell in love with! I'm praying really hard that this is the one for us! I can see us staying there for a good long time and finally getting to make the place we live our home! I'm excited and nervous. Please say a prayer for us that we get this house! Hopefully we'll be celebrating soon. I'll keep you all posted!
Another new adventure for us starts tomorrow with Kylie's first swimming lesson! We'll see how she does since she's never been to the big pool before. After a month and a half of working 6 days a week Steve is finally taking a much needed break from work and will be off all next week so he'll be able to come to swimming lessons next week and take pictures :) Other than all that not much else is going on.
I'll post an update as soon as I know anything!
