We just might have a house

Saturday we put in an offer on a house and Sunday it was accepted. The sellers are highly motivated to move out and we as the buyers are highly motivated to move in. Good combination, don't you think? We have only about four weeks to make this happen without having to move our household goods into storage first, so cross your fingers for us.

The house is lacking a couple of things we were trying to get, namely a bit of acreage and a top-notch school for the girls. It is in a normal neighborhood, so we are right next to the neighbors on either side and the school is rated a 7 out of 10. Not the 8, 9, or 10 we were hoping for, but not bad.

The things it does have are 4 bedrooms along with both a living room and a family room. It also has a swimming pool and what dh calls a "pool house" which is a small bedroom with a bathroom that opens onto the pool area. It's attached to the back of the carport. I can see a certain 17 year old boy having it for his bedroom this summer.

Dh has his work cut out for him now--he's going to push everything through just as fast as he can!
