The ROLLERCOASTER of house hunting!

So, we began looking at houses and loans and all that fun stuff about 2-3 months ago. After getting preapproved and figuring out a price range, we set off on our house hunt. After a couple days of looking, we came across a house that we both absolutely loved. I was definately below our target price, close to friends and work, in a great area, and had everything we wanted and even some extras! The house had been on the market for about 300 days. We decided to pray about it that night and come to find out that an offer was put on the house the same day that we looked at it. Nevertheless, we were disappointed and upset. However, we remembered that God has a plan and intention for everything that is encountered in life...so the search went on. Two weeks later while out enjoying dinner, we get a call for our real estate agent that the house is available again...the other deal fell through because the potential buyers had not secured the proper funds. We took one more look at the house, said a prayer, and placed an offer. We learned today that our offer was accepted and we are now under contract on OUR FIRST PLACE!!!! It is amazing what God has in store for us...life is one wild ride!

Keeping Pace...

So, we've finally caved in and decided to give this blog thing a try. Moving out to Colorado has been great, and we decided this is a good way to keep everyone in the loop as to what we are up to.
