House Progress (Post 1)

We have been making big strides on getting prepared for the move. Our house was put on the market in late June. Jeremy and I made a trip to Florida the very first of July. While we were there we received the first offer on our house. After a very drawn out process, lots of frustration, and a bad real estate agent, our home did sell to the couple that made this initial offer. We closed on the house in September and moved into a rental house owned by a couple we go to church with. What a blessing it has been to have this home. It is perfect for the kids and me; not much of a yard to maintain, lots of people surrounding us (and friendly to make it even better!), closer in to work and school. Definitely another sign from God that we are in His will.

So, back to my story. In August we made another trip down to Florida and actually picked out a lot and have begun to build. What?! I know, I know. Very crazy.

Here is our lot:

Here is what our house will look like (same color and all):
We will let these folks keep their car, though.

And the happy couple that have just begun the process to purchase their second home.

Another home with the same floorplan as ours.
