A house!!


Well I didn't really tell you all that our little family has been looking for a house. It's been in the back of our minds and a couple of weeks ago after getting our taxes done, we found out that we are getting a pretty generous refund. So David and I looked at each other and said "Oh my goodness! We could put this money to good use." :-D So after doing some research and a few weekends of searching out the area, we found that we could use this money to pay for the closing costs for a house. We also hope to be able to put a small down payment Lord willing.

There are a few good housing developments in our area who are building brand new houses for an affordable price.
We have been praying about which house and which neighborhood would be best. And most importantly if the Lord wants us to buy a house. We know that He could close the door at any time.

We have started the loan process and the paper work but once everything goes through, the house will start being built and it takes 2 months to be completed. Which should work out good because our lease at our apartment ends at about the same time.

The floor plan above is what our house would look like when it's finished. We were able to see a model one and we both love it.
I'm already excited and the foundation isn't even up yet. I've already been looking at curtains for the windows. :-) I can hardly believe this is happening.

    I've been blessed by Don Aslett's (sp?) suggestions in his book, "Make Your House Do the Housework." Putting in easy-to-clean surfaces have certainly made my life easier!
