We did it....

I'm so excited, we bought the house!!! We are hoping to close by the end of the month. We have been negotiating with the buyer since Tuesday and finally agreed on a price tonight. I have to say I started crying when it was finally over. This has been a very long year and I'm so excited to move into our house and see all of our stuff again. Husband hasn't heard from the job he applied for yet (they will notify him either way), he has applied for another in the next city and a few more are opening up in March in this area. We feel confident that something will come open, all I can say is thank goodness for his retirement check!

Shane and I are planning to go to our house tomorrow. They have been using the house as their model home so they need to pack up the furniture and get it out. I'll take more pictures so I can share with y'all. I can't believe it finally happened, can you tell I'm excited?

Woohoo! I am so happy for you. I know how hard it can be to live with your things or most of them still boxed up. We have been doing that for three years..yikes! I can't wait to see the pictures.
