God is Great!

We got the house! Just signed the final contract tonight! We close on August 6th! YAY!!!!! God is truly great! I'm so glad He made us wait from last spring. We got a steal of a deal on a home and it's in plenty of time to settle in before baby #2 arrives!

But it leaves me with a few more problems.... what color to paint the walls??!?! Hehe

Anyone want to be our decorator??? Our fellow painters??? Packers??? Movers??? Cleaner-uppers??? :) August will truly be a busy month! But I'm sooooo glad and thankful to God for gifting us with this house! Wanna see more pics? Here are a few...


Here's the front.


The gorgeous 70's kitchen.

Oh, admire those curtains & that lamp in the living room! You know you're jealous!


A den, off the kitchen that will make the greatest play room!


3 big upstairs bedrooms, with wood floors.


And a basement that's almost done - adding 2 rooms & a bathroom
Thank you, God!!!

PS: by the way what happens to the neighborhood cat now??

Congrats! This is what our house looked like when we bought it...built in the 50's and stuck there! It takes a lot of work but its got the things you pay a fortune for in a new house (hardwoods, crown molding, etc.) Good luck! :)

Woohoo! That's awesome. Although the kitchen is an eerie reminder of the old church office? I could help you pack but I come with 2 unpackers.
