First Offer

Here are some pictures of the house we just put an offer in for, hopefully it all works out.



Here is the front of the house, it does only have a one car garage but that is something that we can live with. Now we just have to decide which car gets to be in the garage. Isn't the blue front door cute! :)




This is the front room and looks into the kitchen. Having it so open is such a nice feature and there is going to be lots of cabinet space for all my kitchen stuff. Also all the appliances stay even the fridge.



Here is the Master Bedroom and bath, nothing too fancy. This house has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Also the laundry room is upstairs with the bedrooms which I am very excited about.



Here is our little back yard. It is bigger then some we have looked at. At least there is enough room for a swing set or something. Also we figured Jill just lives a few minutes away and Zeke can play with the kids in her back yard.
UPDATE:
It looks like there are 3 other offers on the house as well. This is so nerve racking!!!

Still here

Hello everyone, no we havn't fallen off the face of the earth but close. We have moved to Texas. j/k. Matt drove one of our cars pack to the cieling with esentials down Thurs and Fri. Zeke and I flew down on Sat. Since Zeke hates car rides we decided this would be best. We arrived in Texas with no problems and are bery greatful for this.
For those of you who don't know Matt was offered a job in San Antonio teaching in a deaf classroom in a hearing school. Actually he will teach half a day high school and half a day elementary school. He is really excited. Tomorrow he will start with the new teacher oriantaion and school starts in a few weeks.
We are curently living with Matt's sister Jill and her family till we are able to find a place of our own. Her willingness to take us in has been such a blessing. We don't want to wear out our welcome so tomorrow morning Zeke and I are going to meet with a realtor and see about buying a house. The area we are looking at is in the North East side of town and close to Jill's house. This seems to be a good area to live in as well as close to family.
So right before we left for Texas Zeke became sick with an ear infection, pink eye in both eyes, and a sinus infection. Thankfully he was free of symptoms by the time we left. Oh by the way Zeke got tubes in his ears about a month ago but has had two ear infections since. However it is easy to know when he has one now because his ears just start draining.
The weather here in San Antonio is hot and humid but I think I will be able to adjust rather quickly especially once fall gets here and the temperature goes down some. One thing that I think needs to be fixed sooner then later is the AC in both our cars. An open window works well if we are driving on the freeway but around town it just isn't sufficant.
Now that we are in Texas I am going to try and make myself sit down at least once a week and let you all know how we are doing. You may have to call and remind me sometimes. :D
