So, our house hunting might possibly be done. You see, we looked at the three houses I listed last time. Two were pretty good but enough things wrong in them that we wanted to keep looking. We were going to look at 3 last Sat, but 2 ended up selling and the owners of the 3rd called at like 11 pm Fri and said that their kid was sick. Possibly a lie but doesn't matter. Anyway, that morning Mark P. and Robin (Justin's mom) both called telling us about a for sale by owner house which seemed too good to be true. Like 3 beds, 2 full baths, new everything! But Justin called and finally got a call back from it. Luckily, we were both at a time when we could go look at it.
It's up on Wetmore St. above Patterson's Lumber. It's like the second to last house on that road. It's blue. A good sized yard. There's an apple tree, peach tree and grapes there. And also a shed. There's 2 porches, one enclosed and they're going to work more on the second. You walk into the kitchen. New fridge, dishwasher, stove and microwave and front loading washer/dryer. Expensive "Glitz" (what the owner called it) is above the counters. And the walls are really thick! And awesomely quick heat throughout the house. Pretty good size living room, with a door leading out to the enclosed porch. A downstairs bedroom which also has a door to the porch. Then you go upstairs and there's a long hallway that has two bedrooms and a second full bathroom with an area for a vanity! Justin and I absolutely love it!
There was a couple that looked at the house before us and were set to get it but it was taking awhile to deal with their bank and they said that they knew there were others interested in it and to just go ahead with the next couple...US! So God definately blessed us with this house. It seems to be His will and I hope that He blesses this other couple with a wonderful home of their own. Now we just hope that all of the paperwork and inspection goes well. That'll be the only thing that takes the house from us. Please continue to pray for us all.
