Closing!

We close tomorrow on our house! So I am taking tomorrow off to run some errands (like buying a fridge that my mom helped us out with...Thanks mom!) and then we meet at 3pm to sign all the papers.

There is only one bummer though. We went by the house a few days ago to check out the property lines. They were staked out for us to see where our property ends/begins. Well basically, like the back almost half of the back yard is not our back yard. The house next door to us is rented out and the guy that owns it owns an L shape of land. It is really weird and really frustrating. That was one of THE biggest reasons for us going for this house is the amount of space in the back! But, our realtor was going to check into us possibly buying that chunk of yard from him. If not, maybe the guy will atleast be nice enough to let us use it and do what we want on it. We were planning on putting in a shed there and I was planning on planting my garden back there! Hopefully something will work out.

But I am excited! I am excited to paint Colin's room, to have a garbage disposal, to have carpet for my little guy to roll around on and not get hurt. I am excited to have a HUGE laundry room. And even though there is only 1 bathroom, I am excited that this one will be way more functional than our bathroom now. I am excited to have COVERED PARKING! And this may sound silly...but I am excited to have a red front door. It is so cute!

So we close tomorrow, and will start slowly moving stuff over there. We won't officially move (like live there move) until May 23. I am having a small garage sale this Saturday. Hopefully I can make a little money to go toward that shed and a mower.

I am so excited but really nervous about "revamping" our finances to make this work. We are really going to have to sacrifice on alot of things. But it is worth it...it will just be different. God will provide and we will ask him to show us how to honor him with the money/material things that he has blessed us with. God is good!
