Our life is crazy!
The last two weeks have been so crazy! We are still buying a house...just not the one I posted earlier! We saw a house in May that we wanted and we waited and waited until it came available. (These dang foreclosures take forever!!!) Well June, July and Aug passed we got tired of waiting. We felt like it was going to be priced way out of our price range and it wasn't worth waiting for anymore...so we kept looking and found the house that I posted about earlier. It seemed like it was suppose to be our home...well till we found out a few things...no FHA loan, shared well, the builder built it very cheap! We were still going to try to make it work until our Realtor called and said that they had countered our offer that we made two months earlier on the house that we really wanted. So we countered back and that very day we settled on a price! So then we still had two houses..oops & with two Realtors! We were in a big mess. But this house is really the better house to buy....it is larger, 5bed 3 bath, 2700 sq feet, 2700 sq feet of garage/shop/storage space, the builder built it for himself=quality built, landscaped yard, it is on the golf course, pool and hot tub. So we got out of our old contract and signed this one. We feel really good about this house. We can raise our kids here and never run out of space. What a great feeling! We should move by the end of October! Yeah!!! Eric is so excited about his shop! I think that is the only reason he wants the house. Sway is going to love it! She finally will have a yard that she can just roam around in...no more lock ups! Now I get to start the fun stuff...packing!!! Yeah. I can't wait. I am excited about my own craft/scrapbook room in the house. I am so excited. I already have been thinking of what colors I want to paint it and how I want to organize it. I can finally start using all that scrapbook stuff I have! I will post a few pictures later...
