We Did It!!

These are the keys to our very own house!!! We closed today, from 3:45-6, with a small snag that, praise the Lord, didn't prevent us from finishing today! Everything worked out great, and we are so thankful. We had Elena in tow, which made it more interesting! But she was a champ, especially when we let her "sign" her own papers. :) The seller was a very nice lady who came with a quart-sized bag full of clickers and keys--to the gate, the pool, the garage door, the house and the inside doors! Apparently we were her third contract since July, so she was very happy to finally sell. And, of course, we were very happy to finally buy!!

Praise God for his provision--we were able to put 20% down, and we are set to get the $8,000 tax credit. Plus we will be in the house in plenty of time for Olivia to be born there. I am so excited that the Lord has blessed us with this house, and I can't wait to get started on moving in!
