Home-Owners!!!

That's right folks!!! As long as the home/foundation inspections all go perfect and the deal is done, then we will be home owners!!! We put in an offer, they countered...but after talking to our Realtor, she said that is was still a great deal, and do we want to fight over $950. We decided NO we do not want to fight over $950! So I faxed over the acceptance letter this morning. See we looked at over 48 houses!! I counted this morning, and after each tour we would rate the house on a 1-10 scale. This house was the one of only 3 we gave 10's to. Even the house with the amazing kitchen only had a 9, and another one we liked (max) only got an 8. The 3 that got 10s were ones we all looked at Saturday, but one by one we realized that this was the one. It is 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, first floor laundry:), gas fireplace, and 1,295 sq feet. The basement has one finished room, and a large area ready to be finished. The backyard is all fenced in already, and has a retractable clothes line! The yard is not the biggest, but we are able to put a play set in it, which was one of my requirements! The kitchen is big and wide open, and we love it!! It has a two and a half attached garage, and a small/medium section of patio bricks perfect for the grill (says Grant!) Also it is on a culdisac (SP?) so there isn't that much traffic, no through traffic! I am so excited and praying that everything goes as planned, because if it does then we would be closing on May 15th. We have to give a 45 day notice at our apartment so we figured it was better then trying to fight them to let us out a little early (meaning the end of April), and then it gives us plenty of time to clean the apartment, and be able to paint and get everything set up in the new house and not having to move in one weekend. I can not wait until everything is signed, sealed and delivered! So I will definitely keep you all posted as to what is going on, as of now our home inspection should be Thursday (and don't worry Amanda, I will still be meeting you at the salon :) at either 830 or noon. So that is that! Now the waiting game continues! I can't wait until this is all done!
