Officially In....

Well, so it's official! We went to a lender Wednesday, got pre-qualified for an amount that we are comfortable with, and tonight are meeting with our realtor to start talking about properties!
Of course Caleb & I have been hunting all over online every day for a few weeks now so we have some houses in mind but we are excited to actually talk to our realtor about these places and see what really is possible and what she suggests.
I can't beleive we are doing this.........we are just in a lot of prayer every day that God will guide us to the right house and if it takes longer than we thought or if something doesn't work out how we think it should.....that we remember that we aren't in control, God is, and HIS timing is perfect.
We have a list of things that we know we want in a house, but I also know that realistically we will have to compromise on the way. Now, what we actually do compromise on, I have no idea what that will be.
I'll keep you all posted!

House Hunting!!!

Well, after almost 2 years of people saying "buy! buy! buy!"..... Caleb & I have finally decided to jump into the pot. We are so excited! We both are in agreement that this is the right time for us to start trying to buy a home and have been spending TONS of time looking online at homes in the area. We already have a realtor we'll be working with, and we are going to meet with a lender this week (hopefully) and get this process officially started. It is a bit scary, but I feel such a peace about it, I really feel that God is telling us we are good to go. Caleb has wanted to buy for the past year or so but I kept saying no, I didn't feel it was right. Since we weren't in agreement, we kept waiting. A few weeks ago, I was praying about it and realized I was ready. My mom & dad are so excited because they can help us look since they've bought/sold quite a few homes. And my grandpa is excited becuase it means they'll be a new house in the family to do projects on! =)

Please pray for us that we make the right decision and that God leads us to the right place! I'll keep everyone posted on our progress =)
