It's a miracle!

I know you are all completely amazed. This is a day to write about in your journals. We finally started a blog! I figured I keep e-mailing everyone and have all these things I want to say and pictures I want to show so why not just have a blog? Please try to contain your excitement. I'm still learning so be patient if it's not the most glorious blog you've ever seen, but don't worry, it soon will be. I'm finally taking the plunge. I think Josh is ready to take the plunge too. What do you think?

As for an update on our little family and our insane house situation....well I hope you all have some white-out (becuase I know when you got our Christmas cards you immidiately wrote our new address down). We are no longer moving to South Jordan, we're moving to Disneyland, oh wait, I mean Kaysville! WHAT?!?

Well, we were having a heck of a time deciding between 2 houses, South Jordan and Kaysville (obviously) and not getting any inspiration we decided to go with South Jordan. Well, it took about 2 days before I started second guessing our decision and really thinking we made the wrong choice. I thought it was just nerves, but when we went back to the house for the inspection I just wanted to cry because I knew it wasn't our house. (The crumbling foundation and sloping garage didn't help calm my nerves either). So the next day I went back to the Kaysville house to see what it felt like, and it was like going home. The house is perfect for us and we LOVE it! Thankfully Trav was having the same reservations I was so the decision was easy to make. So we put an offer in on the Kaysville house and got it straight up....exactly the same price as South Jordan.

So we went from being homeless to having 2 houses under contract at the same time. We now only have 1 house under contract and it is definitely the right house. We had the inspection today and it passed with flying colors. Even better....it has a stream in the backyard! Ooooooo. That's going to be so much fun. I actually took my camera to the house today, but totally didn't take any pictures, so I don't have any pictures of our house. But I do have a picture of the house we are living in now. Being homeless isn't so bad is it?





So we after putting 4 offers on 4 different houses, we finally got the right one. 4 is my lucky number so it was fate that we had to get the 4th one. (long story on all the others ones that fell through) We're not sure when we're moving in yet but at least by January 20th. We're pushing for sooner since the baby is coming around February 5th. Wow, it's insane right now.

But I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and I thought I'd at least throw in a Christmas picture for you. They look excited don't they?
