A praise and a prayer request...

Well, we have ggggrrreeeat news, and a prayer request! We just received a full price offer on our house!! Yes, can you believe it!!!??? - WOW...in two weeks with only having one "for sale by owner" sign in our front yard and one on Capitol Hwy! God is sooo good!! - it's crazy that it's happened so fast...which is why we're a little unprepared!! The couple that put the offer on our house was actually the first couple that stopped by and they absolutely LOVE it!

The prayer request is that we find another house within two weeks (that's the time limit they gave us before the offer expires)!! We're having a hard time finding something that is 20 minutes from Ben's school, in our price range, and that doesn't need a ton of work! :) We'd hate to let go of a full price offer, but if we can't find something else to buy, we'll have to! So, pray for us...we'd appreciate it!! :) We'll keep you posted!

good thing it's a buyer's market right now! I said a prayer for you guys- whoa stressful with two little bambinos!! We are putting our house up on the market very soon, I would die if we got a full price offer so quickly! What a blessing!!

Yikes! A good "yikes" though. :) Praying that you'll have wisdom in decision making and a peace about how things turn out.
