Finally!!

The roof situation is finally solved, thanks to our realtor's boss. She never told us she has only been a realtor for 3 months...which explains A LOT! However, everything seems to be going fine. We need to verify a few more things for the loan and we will be good to go!!!

Anticipated closing date is August 4th. If we get everything completed sooner, we may get to close August 1st!!! Everyone needs to get ready to clean and paint. Supplies and beverages will be supplied!!! Let me know if you can help or would like to help. When I know the exact closing date, I will let everyone know when the fun really begins!!

Thanks for everyone's support through this crazy process. Home buying should be more fun and less difficult. We do look forward to owning though.

AHHH!

So everything was going fine with the whole house thing. We are now having issues with the roof. It needs to be replaced and we are in negotiations. Needless to say, this has stressed me out to the max and Tyler is tagging along close behind. For some reason, I was under the impression the home buying was fun. I have since been corrected. The process of buying a home is anything but fun. It doesn't become fun until the keys are put in your hand. I'm beginning to worry if we wasted our money on 7 gallons of paint or not.... This waiting game is killing me.

Other than that, school is almost over for the summer. I meet with my class two more times. YAY!!! Tyler graduates from his training program on the 24th or 25th. Then he will officially be a corrections officer with the douglas county jail!!! Lots of things will be going on in the next month or two - stay posted. We also will have new additions coming into our extended family. I look forward to meeting them and blogging about it!!
