we can't wait

we i can't wait for:
a bath to bathe the kids
a soaker tub to soak in
not sharing a bathroom with the kids
having a garage
a closet in every room
central air and heating
a garbage disposal
having a laundry room on the same floor
no stairs!!
a office/craft/playroom
checking my own mail
a backyard
a place of our own.

we finally found a house! and we couldn't be more excited.
it's turn key ready with lots of potential and upgrades.
by far the best condition but not the largest house we looked at.
and since our offer has been accepted...
houses the same size and neighborhood have gone up 20-30k
awesome...instant equity.
just paperwork left, so i figure it is basically official.
we are hoping to move in memorial day weekend.
less than 2 weeks...i guess i should start packing.
the timing couldn't have been better.
as the son of the people we rent from just got married
and they never found a place, can't afford anything
so they moved into the house...with his parents.
so weird to me they got married and went on a 10 day honeymoon
only to come home and have no clue where they would be living.
they kind of knew we were looking but we didn't really tell anyone 
because the market is crazy right now.
one house, not this one...we had made an offer on, had 37 other offers.
seriously so crazy. and so hard to go 'house shopping'
and not get too excited about the house cause it would be a super slim chance
you would even be considered anyways.
but we are super excited and can't wait!!
