prayers are answered!

Just to update everyone!!

We got the home!! Finally!!

In November we found a perfect home for our family. Mother included. Enough room for the boys to play downstairs with 5 bedrooms, two storage rooms, and a CRAFT room!!! We put down and offer and it was excepted. It was in a short sale so we were getting it a fantastic price.
Meanwhile the paperwork was underway at the bank. Two days before we were supposed to close we finally got the appraisal. The appraisal was 8 thousand less than what we offered. The sellers agent through a fit and low and behold the appraiser admitted a mistake on the appraisal. Not sure now if it even was a mistake. The bank graciously considered the mistake for WEEKS and I mean WEEKS. Finally the answer was given after several extensions, addendum and stress the bank said "sorry, we are accepting the original appraisal price." We put in an addendum to have the offer at the lower price and hoped and prayed that it would be excepted so we could close! The seller accepted late Friday afternoon!! The bank is now getting all the paperwork ready for closing by FRIDAY!! So not only did we get the home we wanted but 8,000 dollars cheaper than the offer! God was watching out for us!!!

We will be moving QUICK this weekend into our new home!! So excited!!

Now to just get my mom here. :)
