Houses...long story short(ish):


So, I could go into a lot of detail about the house situation, but it would be long, and I have approximately 30 minutes before Annabelle wakes up to make this post, wash my hair and put my makeup on.

So here's the run down:
Beginning of December--felt like God was telling me to fast from reading facebook and blogs, and pray for our house to sell. We had a few showings in the month of December.

December 23rd--Buyer came through the first time--really liked our house, but couldn't make an offer until after the first of the year.

December 31--Jason's side-job that he produced got canceled officially. 1/3 of our income was cut with the canceling of that show. (Me trying not to panic).

January 2nd--Buyer came through the second time.

January 5th--We got an offer on our house!

January 6th--Signed a contract with our buyer. Praise Jesus! We would close March 30th. But, we weren't sure what we were going to do since we didn't have enough money to stay in this house, let alone buy another one. Also on January 6th, Jason got a potential job offer to be a youth pastor in Morrison, IL. Could that be from God?

January 15th--Went to visit the church in Morrison, and both of us felt confirmation that we were to stay in Champaign. Still weren't sure what we were going to do.

Mid-Januaryish--God brought us a couple of miracles that equal the exact amount we lost from All Worship being canceled. WOW, God is good!!!

We started looking for houses again.

January 27th--fell in love with a house at 509 Dunbar in Mahomet, and made an offer.

January 28th--someone else fell in love with the same house, and made an offer.

January 30th--the seller went with the other offer. But God is STILL good, and we weren't worried.

January 31st--Went out to look at a few more houses. Fell in love even harder with 1307 Farley Ln. in Champaign. The Mahomet house doesn't even BEGIN to compare. Thanks to a blessing from my parents, after crunching the numbers we decided that we are going to make an offer.

...and that brings me to today! February 1st. My parents and Jason's parents are coming into town this evening to be extra eyes and walk through the house with us again. If it looks good, we are making an offer tonight!! Praying this one goes through.
