A Series of Searches

Some say that moving is a "new start" but what they really mean is that it is a lot of searching! I am happy to say that Jake has completed the "job search" (he will be joining the marketing team at Decatur Electronics) and we have moved on to the "house search." It isn't going as quickly as we would like (but not as slow as the job search, amen!). Our realtor did inform us today that we currently hold the record for the most offers she has written on different houses for one couple. She has only been a realtor for a couple years but we did sign offer NUMBER #3 today. (Houses #1 and #2 did not work out, long stories). We hope that House #3 is "it" (but I won't post pictures or anything until they sign on the dotted line because at this rate we could be looking at house #4 tomorrow...). So then we can move on to the "church search" and the "second vehicle search" and the "doctor(s) search"...

So great to hear about Jake's job. I'm sure it's a relief to feel like you can get planted again.

Amanda will be jealous once you get a house - she's crazy about getting to be able to paint walls and nail things to the walls. Hopefully by this time next year she'll be able to.

So we finally got a house (house #3) and I am a little intimated by the size and can't remember how my stuff looks (its all packed in boxes in my parent's garage) so I could use all of the decorating help I could get! So, come on over, Amanda(well, after we close and actually have the keys, in 3 weeks)!
