New House - Fingers Crossed!

As some of you may be aware, Chip and I have been looking for a house for the last couple of months. We've explored Plainfield and all of the areas surrounding it. It has been extremely stressful and difficult as it seems that all of a sudden EVERYONE is looking for a house. Just as we would find something we like, someone would come along and snatch it up, or we'd end up in a bidding war before even submitting a first offer.

After what seems like forever spending so much time searching online and looking at houses almost every day after work (or so it seemed) we finally have an accepted offer on a house! It's in Avon, IN which would not add much to my drive to work and seems to be a good location for Chip to start at. This 4 bedroom, 2 bath house has a huge backyard for Kona and an attached 2 car garage for us :) We still have to get through the inspection and appraisal, and I hesitated to even blog about it because we don't want to jinx it - but we're excited and figured that lots of prayers would certainly help! This would mean a great deal for us because it would allow us to get into a house and get settled well before the baby comes. In addition, it also gives Chip a place to have some equipment so that he can actually do work for the customers he's now acquired down here.

We'll keep you posted, but let's hope that the inspection doesn't find anything too crazy!!
