We Got It!

Today we met with the realtor and owners for the house we are interested in, and they accepted our offer! We're buying a house!!! We are so, so excited. It needs new paint in pretty much all the rooms, and eventually we hope to pull up the linoleum and carpeting to get to the wood floor beneath, and expand the bathroom, but it's a great little house with a nice big kitchen, large living room, and two-car garage with a workshop in the back that is perfect for Luke's leather-working and farrier stuff. Both the living room and workshop have woodstoves, which we really like, it has a good-sized yard with excellent gardening soil, and there are blueberry and rasberry bushes in the backyard. Did I mention we're really excited? We're already fully approved for our mortgage, and are hoping to close within a month.

God has answered so many prayers and opened (and closed) so many doors in the past few months to lead us to this point, and we're so thankful. We are overwhelmed by His goodness right now, and also can't wait to be living in our new home! We'll try to take and post some pictures as soon as we can.
