We are FINALLY getting a house!

It has been a much longer process than we ever imagined, but we are finally getting a house. We have looked at over 100 houses. Fell in love with and put offers in on about 7 of them. Waited almost 7 months on one short sale home that the value already dropped and we were tired of waiting so withdrew our offer. Didn't get an accepted on 3 houses we put full or over asking prices. And finally got an accepted offer last night! We couldn't be happier, more excited, or more ready to move into our own place and out of my parents. I'm sure my parents will breath a nice sigh of relief as well to our moving out.
Here are some pics of the house staged (ie: not with our furniture)... we hope to keep our closing date of June 15th so we can get moved in before I get much bigger. (I'm in week 29 with the pregnancy). The house is a 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath house with all new paint and flooring so it looks and smells brand new. It has a 2 1/2 car garage with storage cabinets and a built in work bench. And the backyard is nice a grassy with no neighbors behind as the house backs up to a common grassy area. We are so excited!!!
Will post some fun pics later this week as Ken's sisters are visiting and I'm sure we'll get out and do some fun outings... as well as of my prego belly... and Kyson who is growing tall and thin.
