Today the Weatherford's signed by the "X." The contract is signed and we will begin the rollercoaster ride of inspections and more. We are already picking out paint colors, pricing out carpet, and dreaming of having a more stable place to live.
We drove to Norman about two weeks ago to check out the neighborhoods. We had plotted houses that we were interested in on a map and then spent the afternoon scoping them out from the outside. We were able to cross of about half of the houses due to the neighorboods they were in. With Brian being gone for twenty-four hours at a time, living somewhere that I don't feel safe isn't an option for us.
The following weekend we went house hunting with our realtor. The first house that we saw ended up being the one to beat. It was a charming ranch style home with wood floors and a huge back yard. After being a little disappointed with the houses that followed we drove to a neighborhood about 6 miles outside of town. Then we fell in love...with a house. Brian and I could both tell that this was the one. We went and saw one more and then had to go back to our favorite just to make sure. It fit all of the things we were looking for and more.
We had not planned on making an offer at all that weekend. But, this one was too good to pass up. It has about 1.5 acres of land for our little guys to explore and the house is very well maintained.
If everything goes according to plan we will be moving the week after Christmas. We are giving thanks to God for all of His blessings. Please pray that everything goes smoothly with this transition. I cannot wait to share the next chapter of our life.
Here are a few pictures of the house:
