We're Finally Closing on Our 1st House!

Tomorrow is it! After patiently waiting  for three weeks, we finally get to close on our house! This is very exciting for us because it'll be our first house! After accepting the job at BHS, we started considering our options as to whether or not we should continue to rent or actually buy a house. After praying about it, and crunching some numbers, we figured that we had paid nearly $16,000 in rent over the past two years. The amount we were paying in rent per month was cheap in comparison to the cost of buying a house out on the eastern side of the state. Now that we've moved, the cost of living in this area is much much cheaper, so we knew that we could buy a house and pay monthly cheaper than what we were paying in rent. It was just a better and smarter decision.

So, needless to say, we are beyond thrilled that the Lord has opened the doors for this to happen! We never thought this day would come and it is still somewhat surreal that it actually is. We prayed that if it's God's will for us to live there, to be an example of His light, and to grow in the community where we'll be living, then we'd love to be there! It's by no means our "dream" home or where we'd even like to live for the next 10+ years, but it's an amazing "starter" home, it's actually more than what we'd hope for! I can't wait to upload pictures and let you all get a glimpse into our little world!
