It's Here!!

Lord willing, we close on our house tomorrow! What a process this has been! Heather Larson has been amazing through this whole process. So much was out of her control but she fought for us, she was our advocate, thank-you Heather.

We won our contract on Feb 25th (I think). Let me tell you what, the government may say they want you to buy HUD homes, but every single action of theirs says the opposite. The things they pulled would NEVER fly with a non-government group. It is frustrating, sad, and just ridiculous. They were bullies and basically forced us into using their title company, which in itself is illegal. Unfortunately, about the only way to go up against them is getting a congressman and news station on your side and we just didn't have time or energy for that after being dragged through this.

So, all that said, we are blessed. We had a great person to lead us though all of this. We will have our home tomorrow. I am thankful. I am also sad, to be leaving great friends at 905 E Pembroke. Not leaving, they will still be amazing friends and people, but to not be in the same house will be lonely and different, I know. But the Lord is good and I believe He has some great plans for us.

Now, about the house...

It is a house built on the original Yoder Mennonite property in 1936. It has a basement (not common in our area), a garage, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths.

We have the quietest neighbors ever! (Yes, that is a cemetery).

I am just so excited. We are also getting a dog to join us in this lovely home. His name is Remy :)

Stay tuned for info on a house warming party!
