New Beginnings

It has been a crazy week & I don't see it slowing down anytime soon...for at least a couple months anyways. Last week we sold our house which left us on the hunt for a new one. The price range we were searching in is very hot right now so we knew as soon as we found one we liked we had to put a contract on it right then. We did put a contract on one but didn't end up getting it, it sold within the first day with someone offering more than the asking price...um no thanks! The next day our realtor called about a new one that just listed...we went to see it and knew immediately it was for us! We put a contract on it that day and they accepted it the next. We are so excited about this house. The best thing about it is I don't have to paint a SINGLE WALL...you don't understand how much this excites me! The couple that lives there now is young so she decorated exactly how I do so it's perfect! It also has a front yard & back yard...this was a main concern at our current house. I know I loved playing outside when I was young so I knew Parker would want the same thing and a yard we didn't have.
So the next thing we had to worry about are the inspections for both houses. We got the inspection report back on our current house yesterday and surprisingly there were just a couple minor things that needed to be fixed but nothing major, hallelujah!! We go today to the new house for it's inspection...I'm praying that it goes as smooth as ours went. This process seems much more difficult now that we are dealing with selling & buying at the same time. It was much easier just buying the last time. God knows his timing for us & exactly where He wants us to be & He is pointing us in that direction. We couldn't have done any of this without the faith we have in our awesome God!
