OUR house!

Perfect timing, following my recent whiney post, huh?  :)

Yesterday we found out that the seller accepted our offer on the perfect, perfect, home for us.

Would you believe me if I told you it met all of my "wants" and "must-haves"?

An open floor plan for entertaining
A fenced backyard
4 bedrooms (I was SO picky about this one... I want my guests comfortable!)
2 separate living areas ... a "family room" versus the more formal living room
Great school district
Good location... far far far from interstate traffic!

Yes, we were picky... and it paid off.  I could cry writing this!  I am so excited to be a homeowner again!

We won't have possession until the end of June, unless the seller finds a new home for themselves quicker than they expect, but I am totally ok with that!  I will wait as long as needed for this place.  800 feet from the walking/bike trails, a couple blocks from the elementary school, and within walking distance to a pool and park.

Yesterday was just one of those days that as it came to a close, I couldn't stop reflecting on.  For family that came last night to celebrate with us (and brought cake pops and lasagna!), for laughter, for the memories that we'll create there, and for The Lord's BIG dreams for us that are far better than I could imagine.

Thank you, Jesus, for your incredible blessings on our lives.  I am so thankful.

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts... and be thankful.
